One of our colleagues (who is really crazy about motor sports) currently works on the optimization of a rear wing design for a F1 race car. Basically, he imported the entire car geometry and simply replaced the initial rear wing…
Great Webinars in January and March 2016
We have prepared and scheduled two more free webinars for the beginning of this new year. In January, we will have another introduction to CAESES® which addresses new users of CAESES® and CAESES® Free. Our second webinar will focus on…
Caterpillar Propulsion: CAESES for Propeller Design
Some time ago, Caterpillar Propulsion introduced CAESES® for the design of propeller blades. When we started on a project basis, the overall idea was to implement CAESES® as some sort of workbench that integrates and controls all the participating meshing…
Ship Hull Optimization: Generalized Lackenby
Most of our maritime CAESES® users probably know about this shift transformation for optimization of ship hulls: the Generalized Lackenby. It has been part of CAESES® for many years now, and it helps naval architects to modify an existing (e.g.…
aXatlantic: Ocean Drone Project
Here is a nice little project of a German engineering team where CAESES® has been involved recently, for the purpose of shape optimization: aXatlantic. This project is about building an ocean going drone, even aiming for a world record for…
SIEMENS: Turbine Blade Design
In May 2015, we’ve started an exciting customization project together with SIEMENS, in the context of large gas turbines. Meanwhile, CAESES® has become a design tool at SIEMENS for the parametric design and optimization of turbine blades and endwall contouring…
