The KAUST Supercomputing Core Laboratory (KSL) is co-organizing with ANSYS and their channel partner for the Middle East, Fluid Codes, a three-day ANSYS workshop about ANSYS based engineering applications using Shaheen II Supercomputer from October 1st to October 3rd. ANSYS is a leader in developing and marketing engineering simulation software. The software creates simulated computer models of structures, electronics, or machine components to simulate strength, toughness, elasticity, temperature distribution, electromagnetism, fluid flow, and other attributes. ANSYS software is used to determine how a product will function with different specifications, without building test products or conducting crash tests [From Wikipedia]. If you have ever witnessed a rocket launch, flown on an airplane, driven a car, utilized a computer or a mobile device, crossed a bridge, or put on wearable technology, chances are that you have used a product where ANSYS software played a critical role in its creation [www.ansys.com/about-ansys].
The objective of this workshop is to engage industrial partners, educate engineering students, and strive towards establishing full service for providing engineering simulation solutions to the Saudi Industry.
The first day consists of presentations from ANSYS and KSL experts highlighting latest features of ANSYS and success stories on Shaheen, respectively; and ANSYS users sharing their latest research with the audience. A comprehensive training and certification program will take place on the second day, and the third day is allocated for advance topics including Fluid-Structure interaction, electromagnetic and using Shaheen supercomputer for running ANSYS based scientific workflow. The summary of the planned activities for this free of cost event is shown below.
Day 1: User Group Meeting
Day 2: Training and Certification
Day 3: Advanced topics
The event is open to all researchers, students, and managers, who are working at KAUST or at any educational institute or industry in Saudi Arabia. However, the event is primarily targeting the following:
In order to attend, you must register by clicking here. Note that access to KAUST requires a gate pass, and thus, failure to register means that you will not be able to enter the campus. The confirmation of registration for Day 2 & 3 are limited by the number of workstations in the room. First 33 registrants are guaranteed to attend the hands-on certification and tutorial sessions but after that, we will put your name in the "waiting list" and contact you if a slot is available for you. There are no issues in attending Day 1 presentations.
