NAFEMS World Congress 2007 - Call for Papers NAFEMS is an independent not-for-profit body with the sole aim of promoting the effective use of engineering simulation methods such as finite element analysis, multibody system dynamics and computational fluid dynamics. The NAFEMS World Congress will be the International Congress on Simulation Technology for the Engineering Analysis Community. This conference will bring together world leading industrial practitioners, consultancies, academic researchers and software developers with a common interest in engineering analysis. Simulation is now established in many engineering companies as part of their product development process. Whilst the conference will cover many aspects of the use of simulation, a particular focus will be how the appropriate deployment of simulation can lead to a further competitive advantage through helping to stimulate innovation. Westin Bayshore Hotel, VancouverHeld at the Westin Bayshore Hotel, Vancouver, Canada, on May 22nd-25th 2007, the NAFEMS World Congress 2007 is easily accessible from across the globe. Call for Papers We are inviting papers from all areas of engineering simulation, including the areas listed below. If you are interested in submitting an abstract for consideration, please register your interest at www.nafems.org/congress and we will get back to you with further information. Deadline for Abstract Submission – 18th September 2006 Themes Current Industrial Applications and Future Industrial Needs Confidence in Engineering Analysis Results Modelling Techniques Integration of Analysis into the Design Process Modelling of Materials Failure Prediction and Assessment Variational Studies Dynamics Multiphysics Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Heat Transfer Electromagnetics Manufacturing Processes Multi-Body System Dynamics (MBS) Education and Training Methods Software Development Injection Moulding Simulation Virtual Reality Further information on all themes and topics can be found at www.nafems.org/congress Visit www.nafems.org/congress for details on how to participate at THE International Congress on Simulation Technology for the Engineering Analysis Community. Exhibition & Sponsorship There are several outstanding opportunities available for your company to sponsor or exhibit at the Congress, giving you maximum exposure to a highly targeted audience of delegates, who are all directly involved in simulation, analysis and design.
