  • Dynamic Response and Dynamic Shock Analysis in FEA With SimScale

    Dynamic response analysis and dynamic shock analysis are prominent Finite Element Analysis (FEA) applications in various engineering disciplines, including automotive, aerospace, and civil engineering. Their purpose? To explain how structural systems behave when they are subjected to dynamic loadings. Imagine you’re standing on the edge of a freeway, watching cars whizz by, or perhaps looking…

  • Environmental Month 2023

    Today we would like to tell you about one of the initiatives that the ESG task force had during the month of June. But first…what is the ESG task force? It’s a group of volunteers from different teams and departments within SimScale that work together on Environment (E), Social (S), and Governance (G) related projects.…

  • It’s Women’s Wednesday at SimScale: Get to Know Nevena

    Another week, another Women’s Wednesday! In this series, we want to put SimScale’s women into the spotlight and share their achievements, challenges, and excitements. In today’s edition, we would like to introduce Nevena who is part of our Technical Program Manager and Simulation teams. She joined SimScale in June of 2020 as a Senior CFD…

  • Hydrogen Fuel Cell: Simulation & Modeling

    The hydrogen fuel cell is an essential component of emerging sustainable energy programs. In our search for greener energy, hydrogen fuel cells can be an effective solution. Fuel cells are one of the cleanest and most effective technologies for producing electricity [1]. They generate electricity through an electrochemical process that combines hydrogen and oxygen, expelling…

  • Mitigate Channeling Effect: 5 Strategies for Enhancing Pedestrian Wind Comfort

    As you traverse the bustling city street, attempting to immerse yourself in the vibrant surroundings, a pervasive challenge dampens your experience: an incessant, turbulent wind that engulfs the entire area. The wind channeling effect (known sometimes as the Venturi effect), a phenomenon that plagues the street you tread upon, amplifies the wind’s strength and disrupts…

  • Mitigate Cornering Effect: 5 Strategies for Pedestrian Wind Comfort

    Picture yourself strolling through a vibrant urban landscape, only to encounter a street corner where the wind suddenly picks up, tugging at your clothes and challenging your comfort. This phenomenon, known as the cornering effect, plays a significant role in shaping the pedestrian experience in windy cities. As the wind encounters sharp corners and intersections,…

  • Max Over Phase in Harmonic Response Analysis

    In FEA harmonic dynamics simulations, the input and output quantities typically follow the “harmonic” behavior that dictates the name; that is, the time history for one variable can be expressed as a cosine function of time. For the result fields of harmonic simulations, this is true in variables that are linearly proportional to the input…

  • Solid Mechanics Simulation and Analysis with SimScale

    Solid mechanics simulation has become an integral part of mechanics, especially in industrial design and manufacturing. It evolved with the development of numerical methods and the immense growth in computation power, enabling engineers to study mechanical phenomena by building accurate 3D models and simulating the behavior of solid materials. But that’s not all. In this…
