About the Event
Join interviewer Andrew Celentano for an interesting discussion with Jim Shaw, an expert at Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) Solutions, with a core focus on Structural, Thermal, and Fluids Simulations using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). He has worked for Curtiss-Wright, Northrop Grunman, Bowe Bell & Howell, Kodak and Heidts Automotive Group, where he worked on the design of high-performance automotive chassis and suspension systems.
