ANSYS AUTODYN Users
Meeting 2008

3rd - 5th December 2008

  

 

The ANSYS AUTODYN Users Meeting 2008, organized by CAD-IT Consultants, was held from 3rd to 5th December 2008. Besides drawing interest from the Defence industry, participants from the Electronics, Research and Education sectors also turned up in force.

 

The Users Meeting started off with the training course ANSYS AUTODYN In Workbench, which saw Dr. Wendy Kurniawan, Applications Consultant from CAD-IT, educate attendees on the basics of the AUTODYN software. Trainees had ample time to try their hands on various demonstrations focusing on defence-related applications, such as Bird Strike, Ship Blast and Mine Blast.

 

The highlight of the three-day event was undoubtedly the update seminar on the 4th of December. ANSYS, Inc. sent three of its very best AUTODYN experts to Singapore to grace the Users Meeting. They were Mr. Bence Gerber, Regional Manager of Explicit Products; Mr. Malcolm Cowler, Distinguished Member of the Technical Staff; and Mr. Tham Yang. In addition to providing insightful updates pertaining to AUTODYN in the upcoming Release 12.0, they also shed new light on its usage and cleared attendees’ lingering doubts. Attendees not only gleaned practical knowledge from the session, they were impressed with what CAD-IT and ANSYS had to offer as well.

Having learned from the very best, the trainees left the course confident that they would be able to utilize AUTODYN effectively in their future projects.
