CFMS DrivAer Automotive Workshop Event
The DrivAer Workshop event is focused on the automotive sector and targeted towards organisations who would like to assess their own tools and gain access to the DrivAer geometry that has been de-featured for CFD, access the meshes that have already been generated by CFMS for this test case in order to validate their own methods and learn more about the latest techniques and advances for meshing tools
Date: May 10, 2016
Location: Bristol & Bath Science Park, Bristol, Bristol, United Kingdom

Description:

A new benchmark is now available called DrivAer, produced by 
Technische Universitat Munchen. This is a far more complex
geometry 
than has been considered previously, and is more
representative of a 
real car.  In order to use this test case geometry, work is
required before 
some of the standard meshing tools can be applied, which has
been 
undertaken by The Centre for Modelling & Simulation (CFMS) and 
partners, and will be made available to 
workshop attendees.

The DrivAer Workshop event is focused on the automotive
sector and 
targeted towards organisations who would like to;

●      Assess their own tools and gain access to the DrivAer
geometry 
that has been de-featured for CFD

●      Access the meshes that have already been generated by
CFMS for 
this test case in order to validate their own methods

●      Learn more about the latest techniques and advances
for meshing 
tools

Workshop attendees will hear about the work that CFMS and
partners 
have undertaken on the test case, and includes an open
invitation to 
access the latest test results (post the workshop),
including geometry, 
meshes and results for comparison. The event will also
discuss the 
merits of open collaboration and how to progress the
industry beyond 
the current methodologies to drive best practice forward.

web site.
