On the 10th of July, a public version of the Ansys Help site will launch, making it easier than ever for anyone to access the latest product user guides and reference manuals through public search engines. In the past, this information was available only to licensed users. What’s on the Ansys Help Site? - Reference manuals.  - Product user guides.  - Tutorials. - How-to videos. Why Make Ansys Help Available Publicly? Like most folks, when I have a question that needs an answer, I open my favourite search engine. But what happens when the best, most complete answer isn’t available there. #ANSYS #ANSYSDocumentation #FastAnswers

Inhouse applications and solutions have their own appeal. But they also bring some challenges like maintainability and tool qualification. In the long-run, standard tools can sometimes be the better choice. 📈💡 📝 In this blog article, Wolfgang Meincke describes why you should use industry standard tools.

Check out our June newsletter including a great article on why you should be using Ansys LS-Dyna.

Developing an in-house system simulation tool may not be your best option.   Engineers often assume that creating custom interfaces, protecting IP, and mimicking physical test data is impossible with commercial system simulation tools. We're here to challenge those assumptions (details in slides➡️).   Comparing in-house vs. commercial tools and reconsidering these assumptions can greatly benefit innovative engineering teams.   📖Read stories about teams that switched to Modelon Impact from in-house tools and examine development costs in detail in our latest eBook, ‘In-House vs. Commercial Tools - Trade-offs and Opportunities.’ 🔸See the eBook: https://lnkd.in/gfBdNnAx

NEXTfoam introduces NextFOAM solver, which has enhanced the stability and convergence of analysis in the basic OpenFOAM, and distributes it. To understand this properly, you need to be familiar with the ecosystem of OpenFOAM. OpenFOAM is a toolbox that combines various solvers. Since it is an open source, you can improve the solvers or develop a new solver. According to an implicit rule, when developing a new solver, the name is given as **FOAM. For example, SNUFOAM is a solver made by Seoul National University, and AdditiveFOAM is a solver for additive manufacturing. NextFOAM is a solver made by NEXTfoam. Pay attention to capitalization. OpenFOAM is written in uppercase letters. NEXTfoam seems to use lowercase for 'foam' in company names and uppercase for solvers. In Korea, there are not many cases where CFD code is distributed as open source. Large companies are not very interested in open source. They just take and use open source because they are tempted to be able to use it for free, but they don't want to disclose it to the community. I think there are good in-house codes in university research labs, but they seem to be reluctant to disclose them for various reasons that I am not familiar with. I hope that the NextFOAM solver distributed by NEXTfoam will grow in that way. I also want to try registering NextFOAM in Spack, an open source package manager. However, as a office worker who also has work to do, this kind of open source contribution work is always pushed back to the bottom priority. There is no promise when I can do it. https://lnkd.in/gfr46g4v

In Tony Seale's recent article linked below, he clearly described the rationale for my Upper Integrating KG approach called Management Architecture (MA), based on my 1981 General Endeavor Management (GEM) methodology, which has a US Patent pending. (https://lnkd.in/eVvsZ55n) Note that my background is Management Analysis, not IT, so the vocabulary I use in my approach is being updated from 2021 to reflect the new interest in KGs. For example, I'll substitute KG for EA and Knowledge Base in the document. In addition, many of the things I identified as manual processes would now probably be automated with the various LLM+KG KG generation approaches described here on LinkedIn. I've done quite a bit of the algorithm, procedure, querying, and reporting activity in earlier decision support and data-based expert systems, but I usually had to spend 90% of that production time collecting, organizing, cleaning, and refining the data from the relevant sources. To save time in this data work, I applied my GEM KG approach. A 2021 slide collection on MA is shown at the link below. There is descriptive text under each slide. You can comment in the file. https://lnkd.in/ekPegSkv
