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…

Unstructured meshing can be automated for much of the mesh generation process, saving significant engineering time and cost. However, controlling numerical errors resulting from the…

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…

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…

Hello, I’m Julio Mendez, a CFD Scientist currently working at Corrdesa and using CFD to study electrochemical applications.

My journey in CFD started in 2007 when I was looking for a topic for my undergraduate thesis at La Universidad del Zulia in…

Hi, I’m Joshua Strodtbeck, and I’m a Product Management Director at Cadence Design Systems and I do product management for Fidelity CFD. I first dipped my toes in industrial CFD at Rolls-Royce in 2006, when I did an LES simulation as an intern, and I…

The Aerodynamic Research Center at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) is bringing hypersonic travel to the United States. What would take hours of travel time will be reduced to several miles per second, and to develop these hypersonic capabilities…

Tip clearance flow is the flow that passes through the small clearance gaps between rotating and stationary components of a turbomachine. The size and shape of such gaps are directly…

The big, powerful features such as unstructured quadrilateral surface meshing, unstructured hexahedral layer extrusion in the anisotropic tetrahedral extrusion (T-Rex) technique, and tetrahedral mesh clustering sources often overshadow the small yet formidable…
