Altair has won Best Application of HPC in Oil and Gas in the annual HPCwire Readers’ and Editors’ Choice Awards for its work with Intel and Cray. The award was presented at the 2015 International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage and Analysis (SC15), in Austin, Texas. Altair, Intel and Cray collaborated to benchmark a subsea riser simulation solution that gives engineers the necessary computational systems to perform advanced subsea computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis with better speed, scalability and accuracy. The solution included Altair’s AcuSolve CFD solver running on Cray® XC supercomputer systems powered by Intel® Xeon® processors. It allows operators and engineers responsible for riser system design and analysis to increase component life, reduce uncertainty and improve the overall safety of ultra-deep-water systems while still meeting their demanding development schedules.        "The oil and gas industry has a nearly insatiable appetite for running very large, compute-intensive simulations on

The latest release of Edgecam software includes a new high speed 3D viewer which directly displays and evaluates 3D CAD files without the need for the original CAD application. Edgecam PartXplore has been created to efficiently import and analyse all file types and sizes at high speed. It often takes less than half the time to open a file compared to the original CAD application. Users can build virtual unified prototypes or 3D models imported from a wide range of file formats, including Catia, Parasolid, SolidWorks, Solid Edge, STEP, IGES and many more. The software saves the native CAD data in its own lightweight format, meaning manufacturers can carry out tasks such as calculating surface areas and volumes, and measuring thickness, dimensions and angles without requiring the original CAD information. And it makes sharing files extremely simple, as users can transmit 3D parts and assemblies to their own subcontractors, customers and other project

EMC Corporation has been recognized for its actions and strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change by CDP, the international not-for-profit organization that drives sustainable economies (see related CDP news release here). EMC is among the top 5% to achieve A-List status of the thousands of companies that were independently assessed against CDP's methodology. In addition, for the seventh time, EMC has earned its position on the Climate Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI), which spotlights companies listed on the Standard and Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500) that have demonstrated a high level of transparency and data quality in their disclosure of climate change information. EMC scored a perfect 100, indicating the provision of robust climate data and a good understanding of corporate climate-related issues. This recognition follows recent news that EMC, along with more than 80 other US companies, pledged their commitment to reduce emissions, increase low-carbon investments, deploy more clean energy and

Mentor Graphics Corporation announced the newest version of its market-leading FloTHERM® product, the industry’s most powerful and accurate computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software solution. The FloTHERM product was developed to quickly identify potential thermal issues early in the design process to avoid expensive late stage re-design and warranty costs arising from thermal failures in the field. The newest version of the FloTHERM product delivers an automated method to calibrate simulation models to match transient thermal measurements recorded with the Mentor Graphics® T3Ster® hardware. As a result, the FloTHERM product can help maximize simulation data accuracy and provide additional insight into product reliability – a necessity for the automotive, aerospace and electronics products industries.  Mentor Graphics T3Ster product is an advanced thermal tester for thermal characterization of IC packages, LEDs and systems which produces extensive thermal characteristics rapidly. The industry-leading T3Ster test system delivers highly accurate, real-time measurements of heating and cooling transients

Zentera Systems, Inc., and Runtime Design Automation (RTDA) today announced that they have collaborated to demonstrate the Mentor Graphics® Eldo® circuit simulator massively compute-bursting into the cloud on a secure hybrid network. This production system can be seen for the first time at Supercomputing 2015 this week, Booth #3309, in Austin, TX.  In the demonstration, the Eldo foundry-certified, high-precision circuit simulator from Mentor Graphics is managed by the Network Computer™ workload manager from RTDA, provider of infrastructure and design optimization software solutions. The tools run in the public cloud over a hybrid network powered and secured by the Zentera CoIP™ (Cloud over IP) network security fabric. According to Dr. Andrea Casotto, founder and CEO of Runtime, "More companies are turning to the cloud to boost their compute capacity, giving them more flexibility over compute resource deployment.  Our scalable solutions take advantage of the emerging secure cloud." Network Computer’s low latency and scalable architecture allows it to
