Description

OpenFOAM is a free and open-source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software that has been developed by OpenCFD Ltd since its inception in 2004. It boasts a vast user community spanning various engineering and scientific fields, including users from both industry and academia. The software offers a comprehensive suite of features capable of addressing a wide array of challenges, such as intricate fluid dynamics involving chemical reactions, turbulence, heat transfer, as well as applications in acoustics, solid mechanics, and electromagnetics. To ensure continuous improvement, OpenFOAM is released biannually, incorporating enhancements funded by users and contributions from the wider community. The software undergoes thorough testing conducted by ESI-OpenCFD's application specialists, development collaborators, and select customers, all supported by ESI's global network and commitment to quality. The assurance of quality is maintained through a stringent testing regime, which entails hundreds of daily unit tests, a moderate set of tests carried out weekly, and an extensive industry-focused test suite. This meticulous approach ensures that OpenFOAM remains reliable and effective for its diverse user base. Moreover, the collaborative nature of its development fosters a vibrant community that continually drives innovation within the software.

Description

SpectreUQ™ enhances the advanced DAKOTA software created by Sandia National Laboratories by incorporating a user-friendly wizard that assists engineers throughout the uncertainty quantification (UQ) process. The intricate details of the UQ method are managed seamlessly in the background. It employs a database to systematically organize results from both experiments and simulations, along with offering interactive visualization and graphing capabilities. Available through an annual subscription without any limits on the number of users, it also comes in source code format. Unlike many other techniques, SpectreUQ™ operates in a non-intrusive manner, allowing it to run alongside existing simulations rather than integrating directly within them. Users can leverage their own high-performance computing resources to assess numerous flight conditions and develop the built-in surrogate models. It is designed to be intuitive and user-friendly, having been refined through extensive real-world applications in UQ studies. The process of incorporating experimental data and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) results is guided by the Oberkampf-Roy method, ensuring a robust approach. Additionally, the interactive plots generated facilitate easy exploration and sharing of results, enhancing collaboration and communication among engineers. This comprehensive capability makes SpectreUQ™ a valuable tool for any engineer looking to integrate UQ into their workflow.
