Computational Tools for Engineers in Research and Practice: Tutorials and Seminars
Professor Alexander Mitsos
No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)
In this series tutorials and hand-on training will be given for a variety of computational tools. The focus is on solving engineering problems that arise in research & development and industrial practice. Professional representatives from the companies that develop and license the tools will give seminars and/or hands-on training. No advance registration is required unless noted. Participation in any or all sessions is possible. See list of individual sessions.
If you would like to see a tool added to the list, please contact the organizer.

Introduction to EES (Engineering Equation Solver)
Prof Greg Nellis
Intro to basic features of EES, including entering and solving
equations, parametric tables, basic plotting, units, arrays, and lookup
tables. Discussion of curve fitting, interpolation, functions and
procedures. The thermodynamic and transport property data built into EES
will be presented. Discussion of strategies for debugging EES programs
and ensuring convergence.
Wed Jan 18, 08:30-11:30am, 3-442
Advanced EES (Engineering Equation Solver)
Prof Greg Nellis
EES’ internal capabilities for single- and multi-dimensional
optimization, numerical integration, and uncertainty propagation will be
discussed. Advanced plotting options and use of the built-in application
libraries including the extensive heat transfer library will be
introduced. Additional features of EES will be discussed according to
participant interest.
Wed Jan 18, 12:30-03:30pm, 3-442
Adina
Lay Tan
This presentation will provide a brief overview of the finite element method as used in ADINA (http://www.adina.com), focusing on reliable and effective procedures, and give various examples of applications. Participants will have the opportunity to perform a structural analysis using ADINA. Thereafter, a fluid structure interaction analysis using ADINA will be demonstrated.
