TrueGrid is a specialized software for creating hexahedral (quadrilateral) meshes with advanced technology for finite element analysis (FEA) and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation codes. TrueGrid's unique approach to mesh generation can reduce time and produce high-quality elements even for complex shape models. In this seminar, we will explain key and effective features of TrueGrid's approach. Additionally, we will include a demonstration of generating hexahedral meshes for a three-dimensional shape model to illustrate the characteristics and usability of TrueGrid.

In recent years, the use of CAE has been increasing alongside the spread of 3D CAD. CAE can be a useful tool depending on how it is used, but, like CAD, it is essential to acquire a minimum level of knowledge and operational skills to utilize it effectively. To systematically leverage CAE and achieve results, it is crucial to establish infrastructure, education, and operational rules. Many companies that have implemented CAE face various challenges regarding its operation and utilization. In this seminar, we will clearly explain the necessary design processes for utilizing CAE, the challenges and countermeasures in operating CAE, and also discuss effectiveness measurement (ROI) with practical examples.

To accurately analyze rubber products, it is crucial to correctly measure the strain energy of rubber materials, and for that, a biaxial tensile testing machine is indispensable. However, there is only one biaxial tensile testing machine available at public institutions such as public testing facilities, and commercially available biaxial tensile testing machines are very expensive, which limits the environments where biaxial tensile testing can be utilized. Therefore, we have equipped a tabletop small testing machine with a fixture for biaxial tensile testing, creating an environment where anyone can easily conduct biaxial tensile tests. In this seminar, we will explain the identification of material properties for CAE analysis along with a measurement demonstration using an actual biaxial tensile testing machine. We will also introduce testing services such as contract testing, rental of testing machines, and provision of fixture drawings.
