Scalable Geometric Modeler for Overlap Detection and Resolution (ASC IC L2 Milestone 7181 FY2020 Final Review)

Clark, Brett W.; Laros, James H.; Moore, Jacquelyn R.; Kensek, Ronald P.; Hoffman, Edward L.; Ibanez-Granados, Daniel A.

The final review for the FY20 Advanced Simulation and Computing (ASC) Integrated Codes (IC) L2 Milestone #7181 was conducted on August 31, 2020 at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The review panel unanimously agreed that the milestone has been successfully completed. Roshan Quadros (1543) led the milestone team and various members from the team presented the results. The review panel was comprised of staff from Sandia National Laboratories Albuquerque and California that are involved with computational engineering modeling and analysis. The panel consisted of experts in the fields of solid modeling, discretization, meshing, simulation workflows, and computational analysis including personnel Brett Clark (1543, Chair); Jay Foulk (8363); Jackie Moore (1553); Ron Kensek (1341); Ed Hoffman (8753); Dan Ibanez (1443). The presentation documented the technical approach of the team and summarized the results with sufficient detail to demonstrate both the value and the completion of the milestone. A separate SAND report was also generated with more detail to supplement the presentation. The purpose of the milestone was to advance capabilities for automatically finding, displaying, and resolving geometric overlaps in CAD models.

Simulation Data Management - Requirements and Design Specification

Friedman-Hill, Ernest J.; Clay, Robert L.; Gibson, Marcus J.; Hoffman, Edward L.; Olson, Kevin H.

Simulation Data Management (SDM), the ability to securely organize, archive, and share analysis models and the artifacts used to create them, is a fundamental requirement for modern engineering analysis based on computational simulation. We have worked separately to provide secure, network SDM services to engineers and scientists at our respective laboratories for over a decade. We propose to leverage our experience and lessons learned to help develop and deploy a next-generation SDM service as part of a multi-laboratory team. This service will be portable across multiple sites and platforms, and will be accessible via a range of command-line tools and well-documented APIs. In this document, we’ll review our high-level and low-level requirements for such a system, review one existing system, and briefly discuss our proposed implementation.

Integrated Sensitivity Analysis Workflow

Friedman-Hill, Ernest J.; Hoffman, Edward L.; Gibson, Marcus J.; Clay, Robert L.

Sensitivity analysis is a crucial element of rigorous engineering analysis, but performing such an analysis on a complex model is difficult and time consuming. The mission of the DART Workbench team at Sandia National Laboratories is to lower the barriers to adoption of advanced analysis tools through software integration. The integrated environment guides the engineer in the use of these integrated tools and greatly reduces the cycle time for engineering analysis.
