Abstract

This session explores the latest NVIDIA and Lenovo advancements in accelerating computer-aided engineering (CAE). We will highlight the GPU-accelerated tools within the SIMULIA portfolio, including Abaqus, PowerFLOW, and CST Studio Suite, and discuss the recommended NVIDIA GPUs and Lenovo hardware for optimizing CAE workflows. A deeper dive into benchmark results will demonstrate the performance improvements across these key tools. Additionally, we will provide an overview of next-generation GPU acceleration technologies, discussing how these innovations will continue to enhance the speed and efficiency of CAE simulations in the future.
