I work with the Siemens Velocity marketing team, with a particular focus on CAE \u2013 that is Solid Edge Simulation and Femap. So together with my esteemed colleague Mark Burhop (who as you know has been blogging on the subject for a while) I hope to bring you more news and items of interest on the topic of CAE.<BR \/><BR \/>So, on that subject I\u2019d like to start by showing you how one of our partners has integrated their technology with ours. We recently entered into a partnership agreement with Simulayt \u2013 a UK based software company that produces some pretty amazing composites modeling software, which is now available in the form of the Composites Modeler for Femap.<BR \/><BR \/>Last year they have ported their technology onto the Femap platform using Femap\u2019s API \u2013 and I have to say that it is one of the most professional implementations that I\u2019ve seen. And with designers and engineers turning to use composite materials more and more (80% of the Boeing 787 structure is composite for example), it should prove to be a very useful application.<BR \/><BR \/>You can see more about this\u2026<BR \/>\u2026on YouTube: <A href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OwBr4eKQfZw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=OwBr4eKQfZw<\/A><BR \/><BR \/><IFRAME width=\"425\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/OwBr4eKQfZw\"><\/IFRAME><BR \/><BR \/>\u2026on the Simulayt website: <A href=\"http:\/\/www.simulayt.com\/?page_id=255\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.simulayt.com\/?page_id=255<\/A><BR \/><BR \/>\u2026on the Femap website: <A href=\"http:\/\/www.plm.automation.siemens.com\/en_us\/products\/velocity\/femap\/composites_modeler\/index.shtml\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/www.plm.automation.siemens.com\/en_us\/products\/velocity\/femap\/composites_modeler\/index.shtml<\/A><BR \/><BR \/><\/P><DIV style=\"background-color: #F9F9F9;border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;padding: 3px;font: 11px\/1.4em Arial, sans-serif;margin: 0.5em 0pt 0.5em 0.8em;width:432px;\"><A rel=\"attachment wp-att-3328 nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.industrysoftware.automation.siemens.com\/blog\/2010\/10\/04\/femap-composites-modeler\/cm_femap01-2\/\"><IMG class=\"size-full wp-image-3328\" src=\"http:\/\/community.plm.automation.siemens.com\/legacyfs\/online\/wordpress\/images\/2010\/10\/CM_Femap011.jpg\" alt=\"Composites Modeler for Femap\" width=\"432\" height=\"306\" \/><\/A><DIV style=\"text-align:center;\">Simulayt&#8217;s Composites Modeler for Femap<\/DIV> <\/DIV><BR \/><BR \/>Finally, don\u2019t forget to follow me on twitter: <A href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/alrobertson\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">@alrobertson<\/A>.<BR \/><A rel=\"attachment wp-att-3324 nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/blog.industrysoftware.automation.siemens.com\/blog\/2010\/10\/04\/femap-composites-modeler\/cm_femap01\/\"><\/A><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone, this is my first official Siemens blog and I\u2019m very pleased to be able to join the community.
