Welcome! - Introduce yourself :)

Hello, My name is Hisam Abou Faker, i’m from Venezuela and i recently got my bacherlor’s degree in Mechanical engineering, Even though i’m currently unemployed i want to learn CAE, while looking for some CAE software i found out about Simscale, for what i’ve read it seems like an excelent simulation software for a beginner like me.

Greetings,
I am Muhammad, I am from Pakistan. Now I have enrolled to study at PhD Computational fluid dynamics
Institute of Applied Mathematics Academy of Mathematics and System Sciences
Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China
My research focuses on Numerical Methods for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws.
I like your webinars with Perrin F1 team very much. Please, don’t stop them

Hello Muhammad (@rahimmaths33) and welcome to our forum!

Sounds like a very interesting field of research :slight_smile: We hope that you can learn a lot from the discussions here as well as other resources focusing a bit more on the theoretical part of simulations like the SimWiki. Thank you very much for your feedback and enjoy your stay here!
Feel free to contact me whenever you like or have questions,critique or some feedback that we can use to give our community the best simulation experience possible.

Happy SimScaling!

Hello, Anna.
My name is Marcelo. I’m brasilian. I graduated in Mechanical Engineer.
I’d like know how to work whit SimScale. I performed work on air conditioning, exhaust systems and worked with lifting and transporting machines - elevators, among others. I have a lot of expectations in developing work with SimScales.
But, first, I think that I’ve to learn work SimScale.

Hi Marcelo (@marvasconcelos1) and welcome to SimScale!

We have plenty of resources you can use to get familiar with SimScale. Some of them are:

Or you can simply have a look at the Public Projects to see how others have set up their simulations and learn from them!

Let me know if you like the resources and feel free to give some feedback. Looking forward to see you create the first project with SimScale!! :wink:

Cheers and happy SimScaling!

HI!

This software package look brilliant.
I am from Ireland and studying mechanical engineering. I am in my forth and finial year of my degree. I have decided to base my project on FEA, however, I have a question;
Is it possible to use CREO parametric as my design software or will i have to learn a new program? If so what are the advantages/disadvantages to ether. I am quite competent in CREO and would prefer to use it if possible.

Cheers!
Alan

Hi Alan (@acrow) and welcome to SimScale!

There is absolutely no problem with using CREO. As long as you are able to export your models as STEP, IGES or STL everything should be fine! What you can also use is OnShape, a cloud-based CAD platform where you can create, modify as well as export your models. Give it a try!

Cheers and all the best!

Hello everyone my name is Sandra Basiima from Uganda. Am working on my project for drone aerodynamics, its new and interesting, please help in any way. Am glad to work with such great people like you. Am now unto simulation designing and i have finished e and now i want to run simulation. Am stranded now because i got this warning that some faces are missing a boundary condition assignment and if I choose to proceed, a no-slip boundary will be assumed for those faces. should just igonore it and go ahead or go and clarify. Everything seems ok because under boundary conditions, i created slip walls with a slip velocity.

A warm hello from Singapore to all the members :star_struck:

I just completed my Masters degree in Computation and Modelling from National University of Singapore. I am a CAE fanatic and am eager to learn the capabilities of SimScale. I have a diverse range of experience across R&D, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Additive Manufacturing, Lean & Supply Chain Management. Formula 1, Air Crash investigations, Cricket, football are few things that I keenly follow . I am just happy with the warmth from the SimScale forum members during my initial conversations earlier.

Cheers

Hi All
My name is Michael Im an aero engineer in Australia who is currently working on some light aircraft design projects. Im particularly interested in FEA and CFD applications to aircraft design. I have had previous experience doing stress analysis and design using catia and nastran. So far im finding Simscale and onshape much more user friendly!!!. keen to meet anyone else who is interested or working on aircraft projects too
Cheers
Michael
