In our last blog, we examined how advanced CAD design can unlock the power of digital threads, providing greater transparency, flexibility, safety, standardization, scalability and so much more, when it comes to engineering machines and their parts.In today’s blog,...

“A Jack of all trades is a master of none” The quote “A Jack of all trades is a master of none” is often used as an insult, critiquing someone who is good at many things, but who falls short...

Engineering Change Management is the business process of controlling product change and implementation. Engineering Change Management processes within Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) software are a core component of our PLM custom training offerings and one of my favorite topics....

In today’s competitive environment, maximising the efficiency and effectiveness of resources is crucial. Value Engineering and Cost Engineering offer robust strategies to achieve this goal. As systematic methodologies, they focus on analysing and enhancing the value and cost-efficiency of...

Mathcad is known as the industry standard for engineering mathematics software. This latest release, Mathcad Prime 10, continues that legacy by keeping engineering calculation at the heart of product design. Mathcad 10 focuses on documenting and calculating to make...

introduction In this post we explore the comprehensive and precise physical theory offered by the Navier-Stokes equations. These equations allow us to predict a wide range of phenomena in aerodynamics, encompassing even the flows of liquids like water. We begin...

Introduction To analyze the material derivative of volume and surface integrals, we’ll start by defining the material derivative, also known as the substantial derivative. Then, we’ll examine its application to volume and surface integrals using mathematical notation and concepts from...

Introduction We possess a range of concepts that prove to be valuable when contemplating the distribution of vorticity within the flowfield. Initially, we will focus on those concepts that are applicable to the typical realistic scenario where vorticity is continuously...

The rise in computational capacity has allowed improved modeling and simulation capabilities for chemical processes. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a useful tool to study the performance of a process following geometrical and operational modifications. CFD is suitable for...

Conservation of Energy The first law of thermodynamics, known as the principle of conservation of energy, states that the change in energy stored within a Lagrangian fluid parcel is equal to the rate at which energy is added to it...
