CD-adapco Unveils Agenda for STAR European Conference 2009

CD-adapco announced the preliminary lineup for the STAR European Conference 2009. A packed two day agenda will include over 40 presentations that explore the state-of-the-art application examples from industrial users and technology briefings and demonstrations from CD-adapco experts.

The theme of the STAR European Conference 2009 is: Integrate. Automate. Innovate.

Held on March 23, 24, 25 at an exclusive London venue, the conference will focus on Automated CAE analysis, in which multiple simulations are performed with minimal user intervention. Adopting this philosophy not only provides a more complete picture of how a product actually performs in service, but helps to free the user from the mechanics of actually performing the CFD calculations, providing more time for true engineering analysis and thus leading to unprecedented innovation.

“The STAR European Conference is about you getting the most out of CD-adapco's rapidly evolving CAE technology,” says Bill Clark, CD-adapco’s Senior VP of Operations. “By keeping in touch with the very latest technology and techniques, you will be able to leverage the full potential of industrial flow simulation in your engineering process.”

The conference will explore in detail the many benefits of deploying Automation in your CAE process:

• Simulation of the entire design space, not just a few selective points.
• Reduction in user error and associated run-time costs.
• Ensure workflow consistency amongst global engineering teams
• Spend more time innovating and less time modeling.

In a packed agenda, during the first two days, you will:

• Learn about the latest simulation techniques from expert CD-adapco staff and experienced users from around Europe
• Network with other CAE users and hear how they employ CD-adapco software to gain a competitive industrial advantage, and learn how you can do the same.
• Experience our latest CAE technology with seminars and hands on demonstrations.
• Listen to presentations from our most esteemed industrial partners, describing new and innovative applications of CAE technology
• Meet the people behind the software, from CD-adapco Management, Software Developers to Support Engineers
• Feedback your experiences of our software and services to us

On the optional third day you can either:

• Participate in a free STAR-CCM+ V4 orientation training or
• Join some of the world's leading engine simulation experts at our ICE user meeting.

This invitation is extended to the entire CAE community not just existing users of CD-adapco products.

The agenda includes:

•  Marine sessions with presentations from

o Lloyd’s Register Of Shipping

o Germanischer Lloyd

o Professor Milovan Peric

•  Transportation sessions with presentations from

o Volvo 3p

o Ford

o Bombardier Transportation

o BEHR

•  Energy sessions with presentations from

o BP

o Prospect Flow Solutions

o Vestas

•  Demonstrations of CD-adapco technology will include

o Automation using JAVA

o Automated Meshing

o Dynamic Fluid Body Interaction (6DOF)

o Automated Flow, Thermal and Stress analysis using STAR-CCM+

•  An optional third day including:

o Free STAR-CCM+ V4 orientation training or

o The European ICE user meeting, at which you can meet and interact with leading engine simulation experts.
