On the 5th of October 2017, We made Bio-FSI Webinar with Dr. Deepanshu Sodhani at RWTH Aachen University. Thanks again to all audience for their time and Deepanshu Sodhani the cheerful presentation... For detailed information about the Project, you can view Project website.
The new release includes many changes that were implemented into the program as a feedback to 30 requests from users. So we hope that FlowVision 3.10.01 will be more user-friendly.
Here are just some of the requested changes in the program:
Capvidia participated in the 10th International Conference on Compressors and their Systems between 11th and 13th September 2017 hosted by City, University of London.
This year’s Conference, as usual, caught remarkable attention from in international audience of compressors, expanders and their systems manufacturers, equipment suppliers, simulation software vendors, users and research organizations.
Capvidia participated in the 3rd annual Living Heart Project Members’ Meeting held in 15th May 2017, Washington DC, USA organized by Dassault Systemes.

The Members’ Meeting provided a platform to connect members, share perspectives, challenges and goals, and identify complimentary approaches and technologies. Thanks to the attendance of a wide audience including distinguished speakers from US Food and Drug Administration and leading institutions such as West Virginia University Cardiac Innovation Heart and Vascular Institute, the event served as a leading forum for illustrating and setting the translational course for Cardiovascular Care through advanced simulation technologies.
May 15 – 18, 2017, Chicago, IL – Capvidia participated as an active sponsor of the Simulation Community Conference “Science in the Age of Experience 2017” organized by Dassault Systemes SIMULIA.
Presentations covering simulations performed by Abaqus – FlowVision FSI approach:
May 9 – 12, 2017, İstanbul – AKANA Mühendislik, Capvidia business partner and FlowVision CFD software representative in Turkey, participated at IDEF’17.
During the fair; Akana stand (#1408) has been open to visitors in Hall 14. An international community of design and simulation engineers from various defence companies have visited the stand for gaining insights about unique capabilities of FlowVision CFD software and its applications, mainly in the defence industry.
The “Elbrus” logistics support ship, build at the shipyard ‘Severnaya Verf’, has been launched to sea on May 15, 2017. FlowVision CFD software has been used as a virtual hydro channel and wind tunnel for evaluation and optimization of hull form design.
Engineering design and simulation specialists from companies Digital Marine and JSC Spetssudoproekt conducted CFD simulations of Elbrus including hydrodynamics and aerodynamics effects on ship hull, also examining the operating conditions of helicopter on the ship deck (analogous to wind tunnel tests).

The CFD software package FlowVision was used for the most complicated calculations of oil distribution in the crankcase of the leading axle of the KAMAZ truck. This pilot project was successfully completed in close cooperation between the specialists of TESIS and KAMAZ.
Geometrical model of a fragment of a crankcase of the driving axle
Based on the three-dimensional CAD-model of the crankcase created by the designers of KAMAZ company, the specialists of TESIS have developed a mathematical model which describe the flow of oil partially filling the crankcase volume under the action of rotating structural parts and gravity field. The calculations have been performed together for various modes of operation of the simulated unit differing in the operating temperature of the transmission oil and the angular velocities of the rotating parts, the driving and central wheels, and also the satellites.
The oil distribution in the crankcase volume
The analysis of modeling results carried out by specialists of KAMAZ and TESIS made it possible to trace the dynamics of movement and distribution of oil in the crankcase volume, as well as to evaluate the effectiveness of lubricating the surfaces of structural parts.
Distribution of oil on the surfaces of satellites
Based on expert analysis of the results of calculations, conclusions were drawn about the adequacy of the calculated design model and the possibility of using the FlowVision software package to solve the issues and design basis for the lubrication of complex mechanical systems for KAMAZ vehicles. The developed approach gives the designer the opportunity at all stages of design to obtain and analyze reliable and comprehensive information on the characteristics of the lubrication system.
Successful solution of the task was made possible thanks to the creative approach and well-coordinated work of the pilot project team - specialists of KAMAZ and TESIS, as well as a number of innovative technologies and unique functionality of the software package FlowVision, which include:
Based on the results of the pilot project, KAMAZ company and TESIS company agreed on further long-term cooperation with the aim of evolution a computational model and creating new modern methods for modeling physical processes based on FlowVision and ABAQUS software packages for use in the design of various KAMAZ vehicles.
The 15th International Forum «Engineering Systems», organized by TESIS company, was held on April 11-12, 2017 in the Moscow City business center. The Forum included three conferences:
At the FlowVision users’ meeting International exchange of experience at the forum
Representatives of the largest manufacturers of Russia shared their experience of using CAE-tools in the design of products, assemblies and units. Participation in the forum was made by RSC Energia, OKBM Afrikantov, KAMAZ, TMKB Soyuz, JSC Titan-Barrikady, CDB WT Rubin and others.
We proudly announce release of new version 3.09.05 of the FlowVision CFD software. FlowVision 3.09.05 has already been successfully tested by FlowVision experts in our team and also by some of valuable key users on various tasks. Finally, it is accessible for all existing maintenance subscribers and expecting to meet new users!
We constantly work to improve quality and performance of FlowVision for more efficient solutions that serve the industry. The new version is coming with new features allowing a wider spectrum of advanced physics cases to be resolved and many important improvements for even better accuracy and stability of FlowVision for solution of various industrial tasks.

Capvidia participated in the Biomedical Engineering Symposium & Workshop 2016 held in 6th December 2016, Munich, Germany organized by Dassault Systemes Deutschland GmbH.
This special one-day event provided an insight about the SIMULIA Abaqus Living Heart Human Model (LHHM) state of development and how this Model leads to better treatments and medical products. The attendees had the chance to learn about the simulation process from a 2D scan to a beating heart model. In this scope; the unique work “Fluid-Structure Interaction in a Beating Human Heart Model” performed by the cooperation of Capvidia and Dassault Systemes Simulia was presented by Wojtek Zietak, Product Manager at Capvidia.
The presented work is in the scope of the Living Heart Project, leaded by Dassault Systemes SIMULIA and conducted by various cardio-vascular research institutions, clinicians and tool designers accompanied with leading engineering software vendors. Capvidia is the CFD simulation partner of the Living Heart Project aiming to integrate FlowVision and Abaqus for a realistic simulation of blood flow in a beating human heart taking into consideration the fluid-structure interaction between blood, heart tissues, mechanical/tissue valves and time-dependent boundary conditions as a function of human body resistances. Resultantly, a patient-specific tool and methodology for optimization of heart device design are targeted.
The key issues and simulation challenges that have already been realized and presented during the Biomedical Engineering Symposium & Workshop 2016 are:
Capvidia participated in the NAFEMS European Conference; Multiphysics Simulation 2016 held in 15-16 November 2016, Copenhagen, Denmark.
In the scope of medical sessions; a novel work “Fluid-Structure Interaction in a Beating Human Heart Model” performed by the cooperation of Capvidia and Dassault Systemes Simulia was presented.
