Episode 1 - October 2, 2026
Meshing Workflows - A New Approach to Automated Meshing
- Presented by: Elly Vlahou Gomez, Application Engineer, Simtec
- Date & Time: Friday, October 2, 2026 - 14:00 CET
Mesh Workflows introduce a new approach to meshing in Ansys Mechanical, combining automation with an intuitive, guided user experience. In this webinar, we will explore the available workflow types, key features, and applications, and show how complex meshing tasks can be simplified through a structured and automated process without the need for scripting.
Episode 2 - October 9, 2026
Next-Level Manufacturing Simulation: Sheet Metal Forming Advancements
with Ansys Forming 2026 R1
- Presented by: Dimitris Delikostidis, Team Leader - Structural Mechanics, Simtec
- Date & Time: Friday, October 9, 2026 - 14:00 CET
Ansys Forming is a software for simulating sheet metal forming processes, based on LS-Dyna solver solving the model behind the scenes. A brief overview of the software will be presented, along with it's latest enhancements.
Episode 3 - October 16, 2026
Boat Hull Planing in a Virtual Water Tank
- Presented by: Arsenios Chatzimichailidis, Senior CFD Application Engineer, Simtec
- Date & Time: Friday, October 16, 2026 - 14:00 CET
A planing boat rides on a small patch of wetted bottom that remains below water. This episode shows what Ansys Fluent can reveal about that patch, what it means for the hull design and its resistance.
Episode 4 - October 23, 2026
From Concept to Orbit: Digital Mission Engineering with STK
- Presented by: Paschalis Dompoudis, Application Engineer, Simtec
- Date & Time: Friday, October 23, 2026 - 14:00 CET
Modern space and aerospace missions can't be designed in a single-discipline silo thermal, optical, RF, structural, and aerodynamic behavior all interact across the mission lifecycle. This episode shows how Ansys Systems Tool Kit (STK) acts as the digital mission engineering backbone, integrating with Thermal Desktop, Zemax OpticStudio, HFSS, Discovery/SpaceClaim, and Fluent to model a system end-to-end. Attendees will see how connecting these tools inside STK turns isolated simulations into a unified, physics-based picture of mission performance.
