History-Rich Luxury Liner Sets Scene of the 2014 NX CAE & Test Symposium
The Queen Mary first sailed nearly eight decades ago, but today she remains a symbol of grandeur and opulence. Attendees of the 2014 NX CAE & Test Symposium will have the opportunity to see the Queen Mary during a tour that’s part of the two-daylong symposium on October 22-23.
NX Case Study: Graham Packaging Company
Graham Packaging Company saved six weeks of testing with just one week of simulation using NX CAE. This was just one of many bottom line-boosting benefits realized with the addition of NX software.
Simulate the Real World Using Multiphysics
Product behavior in the real world is influenced simultaneously by multiple domains of physics, making multiphysics analysis a growing necessity for computer-aided engineering (CAE).
