Presentations should be about computational fluid dynamics (CFD) or other computational analysis for which Pointwise or Gridgen was used for meshing. Past papers have included meshing research papers, unique applications of Gridgen and Pointwise and advanced scripting usage to automate Gridgen and Pointwise.

“This is an excellent opportunity for engineers to share their best projects,” said Dr. Richard Matus, Pointwise vice president of sales and marketing. “We especially are looking forward to presentations focusing on Pointwise.”
