The course on Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) is a graduate level, 3 days course. The aim of the course is to present to the participants, from a technical perspective, the key subjects and tools on CAE workflow with a focus on their usability on modern High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms. Specifically, the use of the numerical methods as investigation and design tool will be discussed and compared against experimental measurement techniques in different field of application with a special emphasis on fluid dynamics problems. The course consists of lectures and extended hands-on tutorials based on the utilization of state-of-the-art softwares.Target Audience:
 Researcher and engineering working with industry-driven uses case to be enabled or tuned on HPC environment. Priority will be given to industrial users.Topics:
During the 3 days course the participants will be introduced to the typical CAE workflow: pre-processing, computing, post-processing.
●     Pre-processing: from problem geometry definition (CAD) to mesh            generation;
●     Computing: numerical models tools and their management on HPC platforms;
●     Post-processing: from synthetic dataset to insight using scientific visualization techniques and tools.Benefits
The main expected benefits for the course attendants are:
●     enlarge their knowledge on state of art in CAE workflow;
●     apply best practices on state-of-the-art software utilization;
●     experience technical tips-and-tricks throughout the different phases of the tutorial sessions;
●     learn from case history and practical applications on HPC clusters.Prerequisites
Preliminary scientific and computational background is preferable.Course Organizer:
Raffaele Ponzini (Cineca)
