This three day course will provide attendees with an introduction to the use of simulation and modelling packages on High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms. The course will consist of both presentations and hands-on workshops.
The course will be of interest to existing users of computational methods in the energy, renewables, oil and gas, aerospace, automotive and general engineering l sectors who wish to explore the benefits of moving to higher capability computing platforms.
The course will be delivered by industry experts in the field and will cover multidisciplinary, multi-physics approaches in areas such as Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The course will cover both tools and process. Attendees will be exposed to the complete process lifecycle covering meshing, solving and post processing. The course will address both manual and automated approaches to process integration and implementation on HPC.
On completion of the course attendees will be able to:
• Describe how simulation and modelling packages are implemented on HPC.
• Describe how the combination of HPC and computational software can be integrated into current processes and workflows.
• Identify the benefits of using simulation and modelling tools on HPC in terms of reducing costs and time to market.
As a prerequisite for the course attendees should have a basic understanding of the concepts of computational simulation and modelling and should have had prior hands-on use of at least one CAE software package providing CFD and/or FEA functionality.
Day 1: Ansys: Training focused on information provision and hands on tutorials to demonstrate the benefits of engineering simulation in Industry. Particular focus on CFD and HPC with some coverage of multi-physics.
Day 2: ICON: Workshop with a mix of lectures, presentations, and hands on tutorials demonstrating the application of Open Source CFD technology on High Performance Computing Platforms. The course will focus on solving large scale, complex simulation and modelling challenges across a range of industrial engineering domains.
Day 3: ACEL: Workshop on Improving Design and Analysis Productivity through process automation and the use of HPC.
Day 3: PDL Group: The implementation, evolution and benefits of HPC in an analysis based engineering consultancy. PDL will explain their use of HPC technologies applied to fluid and multi-physics problems through case studies and real-time illustrative examples and exercises
