FORT WORTH, TX (14 October 2015) - Pointwise will premiere a Let’s Talk Meshing webcast entitled, “Using Automated Meshing for Analysis in Conceptual Design” on 27 October at 10 a.m. CDT (GMAT -5). Afterwards, from 11 a.m. - noon, Zach Davis, the Pointwise engineer who demonstrates the approach on the webcast will be available online to answer your questions.
Aircraft design is typically separated into three distinct phases: conceptual design, preliminary design, and detailed design. Each design phase is defined by varying measures of detail, and as a result, many software tools used in computer-aided engineering (CAE) applications are not easily adapted to meet the disparate requirements of each design phase. OpenVSP is one tool that aims to make parametric geometry definition more suitable during conceptual design than conventional CAD packages.
In this video we demonstrate how Pointwise’s scripting environment, Glyph, can be used to automate creation of viscous, anisotropic meshes suitable for high fidelity analysis such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element analysis (FEA) using a parametric generic transport aircraft model exported from OpenVSP.
In this Let’s Talk Meshing webcast, you will learn about:
• Export analytic geometry from OpenVSP
• Seamlessly import OpenVSP STEP files into Pointwise
• Quickly trim and organize the geometry using Solid Modeling
• Generate anisotropic surface and volume grids using T-Rex (anisotropic tetrahedral extrusion)
• Save time and parameterize meshing through Glyph scripting
Details on the webcast and Q&A participation can be found at www.poitnwise.com/webcasts.
The event will be hosted by Zach Davis.
