Abstract:

Modelling and simulation on 3DEXPERIENCE platform are driven by MODSIM - a unique unified modelling and simulation data model. This may seem like an obscure detail, but in fact, it has an enormous impact at every level.

Here we shall explore the benefits and the value of this unified data model, from the way it affects the day to day activities of designers, it's ability to create fully connected validations, all the way to its role in delivering highly advanced machine learning predictions.

Joe Amodeo

Director Process Automation & Optimisation SIMULIA R&D - Dassault Systèmes

Joe graduated from Cambridge University and gained a PhD from Imperial College before joining Jaguar Cars as an aerodynamicist in 1998. Joe was responsible for the aerodynamic development of a number of Jaguar vehicles, using physical tests methods and CFD and eventually became the Technical Specialist for Aerodynamics at JLR. Joe then joined Exa Corporation in 2005, as their first UK employee, in order to focus exclusively on CFD with the PowerFLOW toolset.

At Exa Joe was heavily involved in the development and deployment of the PowerFLOW toolset for automotive and motorsport across the world. In 2017 Exa was acquired by Dassault Systèmes, as part of their SIMULIA Brand. Joe now manages a team dedicated to delivering automated simulation & optimization process’ to SIMULIA customers worldwide. This team has focussed on developing industrial scale automation solutions, such as the PowerFLOW Advanced Common Model process which is used at many automotive customers worldwide. This team is now dedicated to creating and deploying similar automated solutions using MODSIM technology.
