October 2015 Summaries

Siemens has expanded its partnership with Rescale by offering its NX Flow and NX Thermal solvers on Rescale's cloud-based high-performance computing platform, enhancing the availability of Siemens' simulation tools. This integration allows engineers to perform complex simulations involving thermal and fluid flow analyses, benefiting from Rescale's scalable, on-demand computing resources. The collaboration aims to reduce product development time, improve efficiency, and foster innovation by enabling users to explore more design alternatives and simulate multiple physics domains. Users can access these tools either through their own licenses or via Rescale's pay-per-use model, which offers flexibility and cost-effectiveness. This move aligns with the industry's shift from traditional on-premise systems to agile cloud-based solutions, reinforcing Siemens' position as a technology leader in the simulation sector.

SHIPFLOW users can now utilize Rescale's cloud-based high performance computing (HPC) platform to perform simulations, offering scalable computational resources during intensive periods and benefiting smaller organizations with an agile, pay-on-demand pricing model. This collaboration is particularly valuable for adhering to IMO regulations aimed at reducing CO2 emissions from ships by enabling efficient hydrodynamic designs within tight timelines. The partnership allows users to exploit Rescale's extensive core capacity for faster simulations and parallel job execution, enhancing product innovation and development. SHIPFLOW, developed by FLOWTECH International AB, is a leading software package in computational fluid dynamics for the marine industry, designed to optimize ship hydrodynamics with user-friendly features. Rescale, a prominent provider of cloud platforms for simulation software and HPC solutions, serves various sectors, including the marine industry, with a robust web-based application environment.
