European Automotive Simulation Conference (EASC)
This unique, biennial event is the one-stop Automotive Simulation Conference for Road, Rail, Racetrack and Off-Highway Vehicle Engineering.
Whereas the former EACC conferences concentrated on fluid flow simulation, the coming EASC event will cover the full spectrum of simulation aspects and account for the entire range of physics having relevance in vehicle design; namely structural, fluids, thermal and electronic design automation.
The EASC brings together innovative presentations from the automotive industry, universities active in related fields and representatives of software and hardware partners. It will also be a forum for vehicle specialists to exchange experience and information about the latest industry trends.
Emphasis will be on practical applications, best practice experience with ANSYS, Inc. products and new approaches to resolve the challenges in automotive development. Focus will also be on how to integrate the simulation into the design process and on methods of managing the engineering knowledge.
