Cavitation poses a formidable challenge to modern boat design, especially for high-speed sailing vessels participating in events like America's Cup, Vendee Globe, and Route du Rhum. Hydrofoils, in particular, are susceptible to cavitation, which…

‘Virtuoso Meets Maxwell’ is a blog series that explores the Virtuoso RF and MultiTech Solutions. So how does Virtuoso meet Maxwell? This is done by combining the industry leader in custom design, Virtuoso, with powerful EM solvers that address a wide…

The goal of simulation preprocessing is to create a mesh that is suitable for the required analysis. We aim for computational efficiency when generating a mesh that resolves both geometry and physics. Based on our simulation expectations, we can enhance…

This webinar will introduce you to the Clipped-Voronoi Diagram mesh generation technology. This technology is essential to Fidelity CharLES, our new software for wall-modeled large eddy simulation…

As marine geometries become more advanced, the complexity associated with mesh generation increases. Meshing complexity can be linked to multiple factors such as element type, element structure, geometry, topology, user expertise, application, and choice…

We are attuned to the fact that the law of nature, or nature’s rule, drives various scientific phenomena. Humans often replicate naturally occurring phenomena to achieve a desirable outcome, similar to how scientists mimic photosynthesis to generate…

This article was first published in June 2012. It was so popular there it's reposted here to reach a broader audience.

“We know embarrassingly little about how the mesh affects the CFD solution,” said Prof. Carl Ollivier-Gooch of the University of…

In the design world, pushing the boundaries of traditional workflows is a constant pursuit for designers. It takes a lot of effort and expertise to achieve better performance, especially when dealing with complex and unconventional geometries. The Cadence…

The 2nd AIAA Geometry and Mesh Generation Workshop is taking the qualitative out of mesh resolution by adopting a quantitative definition that will evolve as we move toward the vision of CFD in the year 2030. 

When asked about the resolution of a mesh…

Hi, I’m Peter Weitzman, and I’m the president of Agile Engineering Software at Concepts NREC. I lead a team of software developers, application engineers, product managers, and salespeople who develop, sell and support specialized software for the design…
