Meetinq User Meeting User Meeting 2011 Date:

18th and 19th May 2011

Location: Salzburg Congress, Salzburg, Austria Day 1: Debut of SIMPACK 9 and SIMPACK User Presentations Morning session: Introduction of SIMPACK 9

The next generation of SIMPACK will be presented. SIMPACK 9 introduces a completely new graphical user interface and a host of other major developments. The advanced parallel solver technology, a completely new FE interface, an object oriented scripting engine, easy unit handling, and the SIMPACK Wizard, which enables easy setup of standardized models and analysis processes, will all be shown. Afternoon session: SIMPACK User Presentations

This offers a great opportunity to hear about other users’ experiences with SIMPACK and is an excellent source of information for modeling solutions, new ideas and potential SIMPACK applications.

Day 2: SIMPACK User Presentations This day offers a further good possibility, in addition to the afternoon session of Day 1, to learn about other SIMPACK users’ experiences. Three parallel sessions will be held: “Automotive and Engine”, “Rail” and “Wind and General”.

Academv SIMPACK Academy

Compact and reduced representations of finite element models are essential for analyzing the deformation dynamics and stress of multi-body systems. A good theoretical foundation is important for the efficient application of flexible bodies. This course covers the main topics which users should consider:

These topics will be accompanied by detailed practical examples:

• Reduction of linear finite element models for MBS applications

• Mode calculation

• Monitoring of reduced finite element models (comparison with the non-reduced FEM model)

• Mode selection

• Selection of boundary conditions

FEM-MBS Interfacing • Integration of reduced finite element models into multi-body systems

• Durability calculation

• Requirements for stress and strength calculations based on reduced finite element models
