Hi @bmike444!
Everybody is welcome to SimScale! 
Can you tell us a little bit about yourself and for which projects you want to use SimScale?
Cheers and enjoy your stay here!

Hello everyone!
I’m Alex Fernandes, from Lisbon, Portugal.
I’m a CATIA V5 instructor in the UK and an absolute “nutty” for motorsport.
I still dream of being able to redirect my career towards my passion, instead of constantly training the guys that do so. Getting off the sidelines, so to speak.
I’ve always had a thing for aerodynamics and I want to join my expertise in CAD with aero and CFD.
I’ve been around the Simscale platform for a month now, and I’ve learned a lot.
I spend most of my free time with my wife and daughter or learning about motorsport related topics, I also love to 3d print things. I used to be an industrial process engineer and used my previous experience and knowledge to push my 3D printer to its very limit, now currently printing on a very high quality level.
I’m here to learn and help others, so if anyone has questions regarding CAD design, design methodology or CAD quality, I’m your man.
Cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex!
Welcome to SimScale! Glad to have another motorsport enthusiast! I myself love F1 and am cheering for Lewis!
Very nice of you to offer your expertise! I’m sure it will come handy in projects. Do try out some CFD projects and let us know if you’ve encountered any problems!
Cheers.
Regards,
Barry
Thanks for your reply here. Actually, I am looking for a cheap electric skateboard. Here is the right place to discuss about this ?
Hi @bmike444!
Unfortunately not unless you want to simulate one like here: Dynamic Drop Test of a skateboard 
Maybe we can discuss this in private!
Cheers!

Hello, I’m Rupert and I’m an undergraduate engineering student at Wichita State University. I stumbled upon SimScale looking for a way to run CFD simulations on complex models without freezing my computer. Right now I’m running simulations on some Native American arrowheads to compare the aerodynamics and writing a report about the results. Being a beginning engineer, I will probably be using this forum for help with my projects

Hi @rnunez and a warm welcome to SimScale!
We would love to see your simulation results! I would like to put them into the project spotlight section of our forum then 
All the best and happy simscaling!

Hi there
My name is Hassan, a postdoctoral researcher at TU Delft, the Netherlands.
I have been doing a lot of DNS and LES and RANS simulations on different applications using in/house codes. I jointed you since I have heard a lot about you and happy to learn new things here.

Hi Hassan (@hnemati) and welcome to SimScale!
Very good that you have experience in turbulence modelling! I actually want to write an article about turbulence and its possibilities in the future and hope that we can discuss some of the details here in the forum - think that this is going to be very interesting for everybody 
Cheers and enjoy your stay here!

Hello and a warm welcome to SimScale Gaurav (@gauravdeinde)! 
We believe that you can and will learn a lot on our platform!
-
The “Get Started Tutorials”
-
Some random tutorials in general
-
Learning by doing with the SimScale Workshops
-
The documentation of SimScale
Another option is to have a look at the Public Projects to see how others have set up their simulations and learn from them!
Happy SimScaling!

Hi CF here, a year-3 mechanical engineering undergraduate students in Hong Kong. Previously I use OpenFOAM to do some easy simulations and I find SimScale is an alternative application for CFD. Great to see SimScale users around the world and hope my CFD knowledge will be strengthen
