Video: ExaAM - Transforming Additive Manufacturing through Exascale Simulation
In this video from the HPC User Forum in Detroit, John Turner, Oak Ridge National Laboratory presents: ExaAM - Transforming Additive Manufacturing through Exascale Simulation. "The goal of ExaAM is to develop an AM simulator that will give researchers a tool to determine the best method to print parts with complex geometries and site-specific properties, complemented by real-time, in situ process visualization, analyses and optimization. Coupled with a modern computer-aided design tool, the simulator will allow the routine use of AM to build unique, qualifiable metal alloy parts across many industries relevant to DOE." [READ MORE...]
Debugging for Success and Accelerated Platform Bring-Up
