BETA CAE Systems, the leading contemporary industry supplier of CAE software, and its business partner in the United States, BETA CAE Systems USA, have the pleasure to invite you to the 2017 Open Meeting in Plymouth, Michigan, USA.
The event will take place on October 25, 2017 at The Inn at St. John’s, Plymouth, MI, USA.
BETA CAE Systems USA, Inc. is excited to announce Dr. Daniel Schrage, Georgia Institute of Technology, as our keynote speaker, who will be presenting Rotorcraft Multidisciplinary Optimization through Model Based Engineering (MBE).
Dr. Schrage is one of the most highly regarded rotary wing aircraft scientists in the United States and is currently a Professor for the School of Aerospace Engineering, Director of the Center for Excellence in Rotorcraft Technology (CERT) and Director for the Center of Aerospace Systems Engineering (CASE) at the Georgia Institute of Technology. A graduate of the US Military Academy at West Point, for 35 years Dr. Schrage led many of the Pentagon’s most advanced rotor-wing programs for the US Army, both before and after retiring from active duty. Dr. Schrage is also the author or co-author of several book chapters and more than more than 200 technical publications in the fields of dynamics and aeroelasticity, flight mechanics and controls, aerospace systems design, and Integrated Product and Process Development. He is both an AHS and an AIAA Fellow, and a member of the American Society of Engineering Educators.
During this event you will have the opportunity to participate in sessions on the latest developments and real case applications, on various CAE disciplines and industries, of ANSA, EPILYSIS, META, and SPDRM (Simulation Process Data and Resources Manager). We will also be introducing our new products KOMVOS (SDM Console) and RETOMO (our solution to integrating Computer Tomography (CT) data in the CAE Process).
Technical discussions & demonstrations will offer you the opportunity to discuss with our engineers the software features, their application, and the future developments. A team of CAE experts from BETA CAE Systems and BETA CAE Systems USA will be pleased to meet you in person and exchange knowledge, experience and visions.
