Modelling, Meshing and Postprocessing with Salome-Meca Course

SALOME online course. The content of the course is 40 hours, and the maximum time to complete it is 8 weeks. At the end of the course an aptitude certificate will be issued to the students.

The students receive manuals in pdf format, video-tutorials and solved exercises. An online platform is available 24 hours/7 days a week. The teacher has an extensive experience in CAD 3D, CAE and SALOME.

The whole material (video-tutorials, exercises and texts) is available from the first day and there is no schedule. Video-tutorials are recorded. This enables each student to progress according to his learning pace.

The course structure is the following:
· 7 chapters about theory and solved exercises
· Obligatory exercises to pass the course
· Optional exercises to improve the level

SALOME is an open source available at www.salome-platform.org both for Windows and Linux. SALOME includes tools for modelling, pre-processing and post-processing numerical simulations.

Description
 
Aimed at:

This course is aimed at people who are interested in the open source SALOME to support a numerical simulation.


Objectives:

The purpose of this course is to acquire the knowledge and practical skills necessary to employ SALOME. Students will learn to create a CAD 3D design, to generate finite-element meshes for further numerical simulation of solid mechanics and fluid mechanics problems and the postprocessing as well.


Description of SALOME:

SALOME is an open-source software that provides pre-processing and post-processing tools for the numerical simulation of solid mechanics and fluid mechanics. It includes applications to generate CAD 3D models and meshes. It allows to create, modify and import/export several formats such as IGES, STEP, BREP etc. It also allows to mesh CAD models, edit meshes, check mesh qualities and import/export meshes in several formats. As post-processor, SALOME includes tools to display virtually and result´s field of the numerical simulation.
