Each Monday we like to present our ANSYS webinars and events calendar for the week, but this week I thought I’d start with my discovery of holidays and celebrations going on around the world, some of which I’d never heard of, some very familiar. In the U.S., this week officially kicks off the holiday spending season for many but November 19 marks the 147th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s most famous speech — the Gettysburg Address.  In fact, this week holds many interesting celebrations such as Revolution Day (Mexico), Totensonntag (Germany), Name Your PC Day, Black Friday and Buy Nothing Day.

So while you’re planning how you will celebrate this week, why not include some time to celebrate learning by attending one of our events listed below. Don’t miss our Fluids or Structures Advancement webinars, where you will learn about new capabilities in the recently released ANSYS 14.5.

ANSYS Webinars

Fluids Advancements Overview

Tuesday, November 20, 2012
9:00 am EST, 2:00 pm GMT (REGISTER)

In this webinar, you will learn about the new fluid modeling capabilities offered with ANSYS 14.5. The update will include a presentation of the improvements in the area of usability, new advanced modeling capabilities. Furthermore, ANSYS Fluid products speed continue to increase while their robustness is better than ever before. During this presentation, you will also learn about innovations in the area of Multiphysics simulation and shape optimization.

Structures Advancements Overview

Tuesday, November 20, 2012
4:00 pm EST, 9:00 pm GMT (REGISTER)

In this one-hour webinar, you will learn how ANSYS 14.5 helps to improve your current simulation processes. The main themes to be discussed include large and complex model performance, modeling of SOLID 3-D composites shapes, customization of processes for structural mechanics, crack modeling, mapping of external data, contact modeling as well as improvements in the handling of finite element models within ANSYS Mechanical.

Around the world, we are hosting or attending several seminars as well. We look forward to seeing you there. Here’s the full calendar for the week.
