Join us for this free, 1-hour webinar to investigate materials information management. Learn how you can manage the full materials data lifecycle, from test data, traceability, design and beyond. Workflow tools ensure smooth capture, processing and approval of data, information and expertise, so you can fully integrate the flow of materials information into your business processes.

Join us for this free, 1-hour webinar to look into material selection. Ansys Granta Selector is the gold-standard for materials selection. It delivers the most comprehensive combination of materials data and tools so you can plot, analyze and compare your materials options. Ansys Granta Selector facilitates innovation and enables you to quickly and easily solve materials problems and to evolve your products. With the ability to confim and validate your selections, you can be confident in your decisions and communicate them in a compelling way.

As IoT applications proliferate, the scope of antenna design and integration has significantly broadened.  Design engineers and teams must consider the wider implications of a fully integrated system, and not just base the claim of success on the performance of a single system. Design teams often struggle with enormous risk as they must wait for a viable prototype to be built and tested prior to full integration assessment.  As this is typically very late in the design stage, it is also a very costly time to expose flaws in the design. This is where “virtual prototyping” comes in to help identify and correct issues early in the design process.

During this webinar, you will learn about 2020R1 latest features, our best-known design practices, and a real-world example of how our software is used to model an antenna system. Whether you are new to simulation or an expert Ansys HFSS user, this webinar will be valuable to all. 

Several technologically important processes involve a variety of multiphase flows, e.g., in chemical processing, oil and gas (upstream and downstream), energy/power generation technologies, mineral processing and metallurgy, speciality and fine chemicals, etc. Multiphase flows occurring in these process applications often involve multiple different length and time scales. It is difficult to simulate such multiphase flows with widely varying length/time scales using any one computational method. Depending on the required information, such multiphase flow problems can be creatively divided into multiple smaller problems and appropriate computational methods can be used to predict the flow behavior at different scales.

In this webinar, we will demonstrate a multiscale approach using single/two-phase flow through packed bed reactors. We will focus on how particle-resolved simulations can be used to study the effect of catalyst shape on particle-scale flow, heat transfer, reactions and catalyst deactivation in packed bed reactors. Further, applications of the Eulerian multifluid method to simulate the bed-scale gas-liquid distribution and volume-of-fluid method to simulate particle-scale liquid distribution will be discussed. Finally, a multiscale computational methodology developed to simulate gas–liquid distribution through trays used in packed (or trickle) beds will also be discussed.

Vivek Buwa is a professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi. He earned his PhD in Chemical Engineering from IIT Bombay/National Chemical Laboratory, Pune. After his doctorate, he was briefly with the Institute of Fluid Mechanics (LSTM), University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany, as Research fellow of the Bavarian Science foundation and the Alexander Humboldt Foundation. He joined IIT Delhi in 2006.

At IIT Delhi, he has been instrumental in setting up the multiphase flow research group, which focuses on advanced measurement techniques, modeling and simulations of multiphase flow processes and their applications to energy, oil and gas, chemical processing and mineral processing applications. He also leads the Indo-German Partnership (IGP) project between IIT Delhi and FAU Erlangen and has organized Indo-German symposium on “Advanced Measurements and Multiscale CFD Simulations for Intensification of Multiphase Flow Processes.”

His research areas are in computational fluid dynamics, multiphase reactor engineering, multiphase flows, process intensification and micro-reactors. He has over 120 international journal and conference publications and has authored/co-authored two book chapters and two articles. His pioneering work in multiscale multiphase flows has been widely cited and he has won several awards and recognition for his research and teaching. http://web.iitd.ac.in/~vvbuwa/Presentstudents/Studentslist/studentprofile/VVB/Vivekbuwa.html

In November 2019, Ansys acquired LSTC, the authors of the explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. Ansys LS-DYNA is the most used explicit simulation program, capable of simulating the response of materials to short periods of severe loading.

Ansys LS-DYNA has a vast array of capabilities to simulate extreme deformation problems using its explicit solver. Engineers can tackle simulations involving material failure and look at how the failure progresses through a part or through a system. Models with large amounts of parts or surfaces interacting with each other are also easily handled, and the interactions and load passing between complex behaviors are modeled accurately.

Join us to learn how to use SCADE Suite & SCADE Display to rapidly create a model based application that can be simulated and executed on a PC. During this demonstration you will learn how to create application behaviour in a model, which can, at a click of a button, generate code ready for safety critical applications. We will also see how we can create OpenGL graphical displays which will link with this behaviour model to drive the application and visualize data whilst having little to zero knowledge of graphics programming. At the end of the session you will see how easily it is to generate behavioural and graphics target agnostic code for high integrity applications.

Many important and complex CFD simulation workflows contain dirty, non-watertight geometries, typically requiring extensive clean-up and repair prior to meshing. View this webinar to learn how Ansys Fluent’s Fault-Tolerant Meshing workflow may be used to simplify and speed up meshing for even the dirtiest geometries, with no geometry preparation required.
