  • Doron Shalev Engineering – Faster Wind Analysis in the Cloud

    The Challenge Be’er Sheva (Israel’s fourth-largest city) in the south of Israel plans to inaugurate a new large shopping center. As part of this development, it will construct a covered pedestrian walkway connecting the new development to the existing Be’er Sheva river park. The walkway will be over 200 meters long and with a height…

  • Verton – Calculating Wind Loads on Lifting Operations

    The Challenge In crane lifting operations, load management is a constant challenge. Getting the orientation and position of a load just right is no simple task, and in windy conditions is a direct hazard causing lengthy and expensive delays. Verton developed the world’s first remote-controlled load-management system to address these challenges. Verton serves a diverse…

  • Submer Technologies – Electronics Cooling Solutions with CFD

    The Challenge This system can effectively cool electronics along with reducing cooling energy costs by up to 95% when compared to traditional air cooling. When designing one of their SmartPods, Submer noticed that an electrical box needed to be placed very close to the IT tank where the cooled electronics are kept. Due to spatial…
