Computational Modeling & Simulation (CM&S)
This topic focuses on the design and implementation of NUREMICS components dedicated to Computational Modeling & Simulation (CM&S) workflows:
- Geometry creation: Build, import, or manipulate a geometric model — from basic primitive shapes to complex CAD (Computer-Aided Design) assemblies.
- Physical labeling: Translate a geometric model into physical model — label volumes, surfaces, edges, and vertices of interest, then assign physical entities, material properties, and boundary conditions.
- Mesh generation: Discretize a geometric model into mesh — generating nodes and elements (e.g., tetrahedra, hexahedra, triangles, etc.) that represent the shapes for numerical analysis.
- Physical data mapping: Transfer physical labels from a geometric model onto the associated mesh — ensuring the mesh nodes and elements carry out the necessary physical information.
- Solver resolution: Compute the numerical solution of a physical problem — applying appropriate numerical methods to solve constitutive equations on the mesh and simulate system behavior.
- Post-processing & Visualization: Extract and visualize raw simulation results — turning numerical outputs into interpretable visual formats like plots, maps, and animations.
- Data Analysis & Interpretation: Interpret and evaluate processed data — performing comparisons, derived calculations, and decision-making based on simulation outcomes.
