Second ANSYS-KAUST Workshop
The KAUST Supercomputing Core Laboratory is co-organizing with ANSYS and their channel partner for the Middle East, Fluid Codes, a one-day workshop about ANSYS based engineering applications using Shaheen II on Thursday, February 8, 2018. ANSYS is a leader in developing engineering simulation software.
At the workshop, you can find out more about:
- Shaheen II and how ANSYS software can be used on this world class supercomputer
- Presentations about ANSYS CFD
- Presentations about ANSYS Mechanical
- Impact of HPC in reducing the time to solution – some success stories
- ANSYS Discovery Live - Real-time design-simulation made easy with GPUs
- Reduced Order Modeling
- Hands-on demos on using ANSYS software
First KAUST-ANSYS Workshop was held at KAUST on April 16, 2017. In addition to KAUST participants, large number of participants from Saudi Industry and Universities participated in that workshop. You can find more details on that event here. The objective of this workshop is to engage industrial partners, and to educate engineering students.
