This major step forward for the CFD Industry was acknowledged by Paul Bemis, Vice President of Marketing at Fluent Inc who said, “In contrast to other approaches, the FLUENT for CATIA solution operates completely within the native CATIA data structures. The key benefit of this unique implementation is full associativity with all upstream operations allowing functionality such as analysis driven design optimization to be utilized in the first release. This allows users the ability and flexibility to carry out PLM all within one workflow."
The EACC itself is Europe’s biggest CFD event dedicated to automotive applications, and is happening on the 29th and 30th June 2005.
