This kind of simulation is essential for calibrating boundary conditions of CFD models, thus enhancing the accuracy of subsequent wind load simulations on specific structures. SimCenter Engagement at University of Pavia - Matt DeJong delivered a seminar at the University of Pavia, Italy, on March 1, 2024. The seminar, titled SimCenter tools for computational earthquake engineering, uncertainty quantification, and regional-scale simulations,” underscored SimCenter’s commitment to enable leaders to make more informed decisions about the necessity and efficacy of potential mitigation strategies. Open-source software boosts resilient design - ASCE Civil Engineering Online - ASCE Civil Engineering Online has published the article "Open-source simulation software boosts earthquake resilience," which underscores the release of the Arup’s REDi Seismic Downtime Model as open-source software, and its integration into the SimCenter’s PBE application. The SimCenter provides next-generation computational modeling and simulation software tools, user support, and educational materials to the natural hazards engineering research community with the goal of advancing the nation’s capability to simulate the impact of natural hazards on structures, lifelines, and communities.
