The largest independent, international conference dedicated exclusively to engineering simulation.
Attendees discovered new technologies & innovative techniques, whilst networking with end-users, software vendors, consultants and academics, in this worldwide celebration of simulation.
Traditional methods of training are changing. NAFEMS is stepping up to the challenge by providing you with a range of training options, all available remotely, all available from home, and all keeping to the same, internationally renowned, independent standards.
NAFEMS provides the engineering analysis community with as many as fifty seminars, conferences, workshops and open forums throughout the world each year. As the only truly independent organisation dedicated to engineering analysis and simulation NAFEMS' events are widely held to encompass the broadest and most accurate view of the community available.
This is your community. Now more than ever, we're working harder to deliver more opportunities for you to stay connected during these challenging times.
The NAFEMS Resource Centre provides a gateway to all of the technical material produced by NAFEMS. It enables access to our publications, magazine articles, webinars, papers and presentations.
Relevant material can be found by searching by keyword, filtering by multilevel technical categories or filtering by author, organisation, or type of resource.
There are currently over 8,000 resources in the centre with this number growing weekly.
As an organisation dedicated to promoting the best use of simulation and analysis and with our wealth of experience within the analysis and simulation industry, there is no better place to further your professional development with our quality and worthwhile training to reach your goals.

We focus on the practical application of numerical engineering simulation techniques such the Finite Element Method for Structural Analysis, Computational Fluid Dynamics, and Multibody Simulation. In addition to end users from all industry sectors, our stakeholders include technology providers, researchers and academics.New Column
Simulation-driven engineering marks a big step towards virtualization of the development of real-world designs, devices, and processes. As our real world is multiphysical in nature, it is natural to see multiphysics CAE-based simulations as a key enabler for simulation-driven engineering. Products are getting increasingly complex, hence industry is constantly faced with new challenges to efficiently develop successful products. Success is not defined by meeting functional requirements alone, but also extends to meeting tighter regulations, faster time-to-market and budgetary expectations, as well as meeting customer expectations for better products.
Realistic multiphysics simulations that predict accurate product properties before a physical prototype is built are key to fulfilling these requirements. As a result, more and more physical disciplines are covered within the context of multiphysics simulations and nowadays utilization is widespread.
While this conference aims to cover the full breadth of multiphysics, we would like to highlight some application classes treated as emerging and future trends that will be discussed within this conference.
In collaboration with the NAFEMS Multibody Dynamics Working Group we organized a session focusing on Multiphysics simulations coupling with Multibody Dynamics in the afternoon of 15 November. Attendees of both conferences, the Multiphysics and the consecutive Multibody Dynamics Conference, are equally entitled to attend this session. Special offers are available if you want to attend both conferences.
In collaboration with the NAFEMS Computational Electromagnetics Working Group we organized sessions focusing on Multiphysics simulations coupling with computational electromagnetic simulations.
The conference brings together researchers, developers, teachers, and users of multiphysics simulation methods to present new results, exchange ideas and discuss potential challenges.
It is an excellent opportunity to connect with other practitioners in the field of multiphysics and coupled simulations. It is jointly organized by NAFEMS Multiphysics Working Group, The International Society of Multiphysics, and the Fraunhofer Institute for Algorithms and Scientific Computing SCAI.
Participation is open to NAFEMS members and non-members. NAFEMS members can participate free of charge as part of their membership using seminar credits.
We look very much forward to welcoming you in Munich.
