Fluent Inc. and ABAQUS, Inc., to Deliver Coupled Fluid-Structure Analysis Capability; Companies launch collaboration between best-in-class tools.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers LEBANON, N.H. and PAWTUCKET, R.I.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 22, 2003 Fluent Inc., the leading provider of computational fluid dynamics Computational fluid dynamics The numerical approximation to the solution of mathematical models of fluid flow and heat transfer. Computational fluid dynamics is one of the tools (in addition to experimental and theoretical methods) available to solve (CFD CFD - Computational Fluid Dynamics ) simulation software Simulation software is based on the process of imitating a real phenomenon with a set of mathematical formulas. It is, essentially, a program that allows the user to observe an operation through simulation without actually running the program. and services, and ABAQUS, Inc ABAQUS, Inc. is an engineering simulation software (CAE) vendor. Formerly known as Hibbitt, Karlsson & Sorensen, Inc., (HKS), the company was founded in 1978 by Dr. David Hibbitt, Dr. Bengt Karlsson and Dr. ., the leading supplier of software and services for advanced finite element See FEA. structural analysis (FEA (Finite Element Analysis) A mathematical technique for analyzing stress, which breaks down a physical structure into substructures called "finite elements." The finite elements and their interrelationships are converted into equation form and solved mathematically. ), announced today the formation of a strategic technology initiative to develop and support coupled fluid-structure simulation capability. The collaboration will leverage the best-in-class tools of each company to deliver co-simulation capability for fluid-structure interaction (FSI FSI Foreign Service Institute FSI Fluid Structure Interaction FSI Fuel Stratified Injection FSI Federazione Scacchistica Italiana (Italian Chess Federation) FSI Free Standing Insert FSI Flight Simulator ), enabling manufacturers to address complex design problems in the automotive, aerospace, biomedical bi·o·med·i·cal adj. 1. Of or relating to biomedicine. 2. Of, relating to, or involving biological, medical, and physical sciences. , and process industries among others. Currently, engineering analysis of stress and thermal effects in structures is typically performed in isolation from the analysis of fluid flow phenomena, despite the impact of flow-induced forces and heat transfer on a structure and the impact of a structure on the fluid. The Fluent-ABAQUS initiative will provide engineers with easy-to-use tools that will take into account these important coupling effects including sophisticated simulation of nonlinear structural responses. The co-simulation capability is expected to address applications such as fan blade flutter, microfluidics, in-vivo vascular flows, and flow-induced vibrations in structures and equipment, as well as many consumer goods consumer goods Any tangible commodity purchased by households to satisfy their wants and needs. Consumer goods may be durable or nondurable. Durable goods (e.g., autos, furniture, and appliances) have a significant life span, often defined as three years or more, and design and packaging applications. "Implementation of co-simulation using FLUENT and ABAQUS will provide our customers with an outstanding coupled fluid-structure solution," notes Paul Bemis, Fluent's VP of Product Management. "Many of our customers' most challenging design problems require assessment of interactions between fluid and structure. By teaming with ABAQUS, Inc. we will provide a solution based on industry-leading best-in-class technologies. " "ABAQUS is extremely pleased to be working closely with Fluent, who are a recognized leader in CFD," notes Ken Short, VP of Marketing at ABAQUS, Inc. "Our joint customers need robust, reliable solutions to real world simulation challenges. This initiative is a significant step toward a practical and useable FSI capability from two of the most respected solution providers in the software industry."
