Enabling best practice in Engineering simulationOur CADFEM ANSYS Simulation Confer-ence will bring together a diverse group of ANSYS Users from different industries and academia in the UK. During the two days a wealth of application knowledge and expertise in engineering analysis and simulation will be available to you. In the spirit of CADFEM’s motto“Simu-lation is more than software”, our own core presentations will focus on HPC and cloud computing. We are delighted to welcome Amazon Web Services UK, as speakers and sponsors! We will start the program with a case study of how our own business model has been revolution-ised by cloud computing – specifically

Your opportunity to learn more about• New features, updates, enhancements

& capabilities• Industry applications & the future of

product development• Tips, tricks and techniques that lever-

age the power of ANSYS tools• the advantages of simulation based on

real-world experiences

our move from the desktop to the cloud which we are advocating strongly for all our ANSYS customers.

Our Day 1 afternoon and Day 2 morning sessions offer you a broad range of pres-entations, from our users, related to sim-ulation and how it impacts and improves design cycles and design efficiencies.

The afternoon of Day 2 offers 3 parallel interactive seminars focusing on par-ticular aspects of the ANSYS Simulation technology. Our round table discussion is primarily aimed at team leaders, manag-ers, to share experiences of best practice in adoption, implementation and efficient use of simulation in diverse fields of engi-neering design.

We are delighted to welcome you to our Conference! Please network, share your experiences and know-how with tech-nology experts, from CADFEM, ANSYS and Amazon, and of course with other ANSYS Users - We want you to gain new meaningful insights for your work!
