We were honored to have Rod Mach from TotalCAE present at the 2026 SIMULIA Americas Users Conference in Novi, Michigan, May 13-14, 2026.

Abstract: 

The SIMULIA portfolio from Dassault Systèmes — including Abaqus, Isight, Tosca, fe-safe, CST Studio Suite, and more — powers critical multi-physics simulations across industries. Maximizing the performance and scalability of these tools requires carefully selected high-performance computing (HPC) technologies.
