Since the first NAFEMS Quality and Reliability in CFD 
seminar in 2004, accessibility to simulation has increased, 
which has led to more people using analysis tools. We are 
therefore returning to the topics that proved so popular at 
the first Quality and Reliability seminar, helping 
engineers, managers, design teams and industry bodies 
determine the level of trust that can be placed in a 
particular simulation.
