GoEngineer: Crossing the Line: Combining Topology Optimization, Fiber-Filled Injection Molding, and Structural Analysis | 2024 SIMULIA Americas Users Conference

We were honored to have both Matt Sherek and Shivani Patel from GoEngineer present at the SIMULIA Americas Users Conference, May 1-2, 2024 in Novi, Michigan.

Abstract

3DEXPERIENCE integrates the powerful Tosca, SIMPOE, and Abaqus solvers in a seamless platform that once required complex workflows to combine. The speakers will walk through a bicycle bracket designed for weight using Structural Generative Engineer, then injected with 20% carbon-filled polymer through Plastics Injection Engineer, and finally import effects of fiber orientation and weld line strength reduction through Structural Mechanics Engineer. Trading between multiple engineers and programs while maintaining a single, universal fileset will appear seamless.

Presenter Bios

Matt works as an Elite Application Engineer and Senior Simulation Product Specialist. His job is to find simulation solutions that match customer needs, and to assist them via training, mentoring, consulting, and support. His favorite part of the job is meeting customers from all different industries and backgrounds and sharing his knowledge of simulation with them. Matt’s recent focus has been on cloud simulation tools and the additional opportunities that adds for our customers.

Although Matt started at GoEngineer as a 3D printer tech and quickly made his way up the ranks to the simulation team, he still maintains an enthusiasm and love for additive manufacturing.

 

Shivani manages the West Simulation Application Engineer team, which focuses on matching clients with the correct simulation products and onboarding them so that they are successful with the technology. She has worked for ten years in the value-adde reseller (VAR) channel out of Houston, Texas, primarily with clients in the oil & gas, high tech, and industrial machinery industries, focusing on large assembly performance and FEA & CFD analysis. During her time at university, she spent time with the student-built Formula Racecar team designing the clutch and gear shift systems.

In her free time you may find her on the sand volleyball court or hiking, where her highest altitude reached is 17,600 feet (her sea-level lungs were not a fan of the oxygen levels)!
