Last Week at Fidelity CFD

• 3 minute read

It's a new week in CFD and time to refresh our memories about what's going on here at Cadence Fidelity CFD.

From The Blogs

Cadence and McLaren Accelerate Innovation

During a recent visit to the Cadence office in Austin, Texas, McLaren CEO Zak Brown discussed the Cadence-McLaren partnership and the importance of Cadence Fidelity CFD in their Formula 1 race cars. Read more.

I’m Samuel Afari and This Is How I Mesh

The latest installment in our This Is How I Mesh series (in which we introduce you to someone from our Fidelity CFD team or to someone anywhere in the world of CFD) you'll meet Samuel Afari, a Ph.D. student at Embry-Riddle and an Applications Engineer intern here at Cadence. Read more.

Giving EV Batteries a Second Life

With the roads flooded with electric vehicles worldwide, it is on us to give EV batteries a second life, which would count as an effort to reduce e-waste and achieve the net zero emission targets set by policymakers. Read more

Smooth Extrusion for Accurate Viscous Flow Simulation

An optimization-based smoothing technique in Fidelity Pointwise promises to accurately resolve the boundary layers in a viscous flow by extruding a mix of prisms and hexahedra. Read more.

Our 490th edition of This Week in CFD pulls together some of the latest news in CFD, CAD, CAE, HPC, and many other acronyms. Read more.

Events

Generate the Best Mesh Every Time - Automatically, 13 Dec

Unstructured meshing can automate much of the mesh generation process, saving significant engineering time and cost. However, controlling numerical errors resulting from the discrete mesh requires adaptation to the developing solution. Join this webinar to learn how Cadence CFD mesh adaptation methods use a continuous-size field that gets updated as the solution progresses. As a result, adherence to the underlying CAD geometry is maintained, and mesh quality is ensured. Register today.

HiFiLeD Symposium, 14-16 Dec

Join us in Brussels for this in-person event. The HiFiLed Symposium will be focusing on all aspects related to these objectives, ranging from issues concerning the complexity, reliability, accuracy, and uncertainties in generating the High-Fidelity LES/DNS data to their application towards turbulence and transition modelling. It will include progress on the underlying high-order numerical methods (HOMs), innovative approaches for CPU acceleration for LES and DNS, exploitation of massive parallel architectures, efficient post-processing on massive parallel hardware, innovative machine learning methods, as well as experimental data. Register today.

AIAA SciTech, 23-27 Jan

AIAA SciTech Forum is the world’s largest event for aerospace research, development, and technology. This year’s forum will be held at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Nation Harbor, Maryland, just outside Washington, DC. Cadence will have staff at the conference presenting papers in technical sessions, demonstrating software, and answering technical questions at our booth #511. Read more.

CadenceLIVE Silicon Valley 2023, 19-20 Apr 

Mark your calendars and plan to attend CadenceLIVE Silicon Valley next 19-20 April in the Santa Clara Convention Center. This will be the place to interact with the Fidelity CFD team, share best practices with other Fidelity CFD customers, and learn about what the future holds for Fidelity CFD. We invite you to present your work with Fidelity CFD, and your abstract is due by 31 January. Read more.
