Hi All, 

As you know, we have been hosting a series of webinars these past few months to describe the various technologies currently present in Abaqus to address Mulitphysics applications and problems. These included Abaqus/CFD and Native FSI, Coupled Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) approach and Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH).

In the first of the webinars, we introduced all of these technologies and also summarized which technology is suitable for a given application.

In the 2nd webinar, we focused on the offerings of Abaqus/CFD and native Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) using Abaqus/CFD. Particularly, we went over step-by-step procedure on how to set up a CFD analysis using Abaqus/CFD from start to finish as well as setting up native FSI problems entirely within Abaqus. During the course of the webinar, we also discussed adding turbulence and heat transfer effects to the CFD model and subsequently modeling Conjugate Heat Transfer analysis using Abaqus.

In the 3rd webinar series, we focused on the Coupled-Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) technique. Using an example, we demonstrated on how one goes about creating Eulerian meshes and defining initial material location within the Eulerian mesh as well as using general contact to define interaction between Eulerian and Lagrangian parts to complete the setup of a CEL Analysis.

I have uploaded the contents of these webinars below for your perusal in the event you were unable to attend or if you needed to revisit the presentation material in the future.
