UberCloud Releases 2015 Compendium

UberCloud, an online community and marketplace for engineers to test cloud computing resources, has released its third annual Compendium of CAE case studies. Similar to the previous edition, this year’s compendium draws from a select group of projects undertaken as part of the UberCloud Experiment.

The publication has use cases of CAE in a variety of industries and applications — including aerodynamic optimization, coronary artery flow, aircraft wing fluid structure interaction, heat transfer on thermoplastic olefins and acoustic modeling.

According to the organization, the goal of the UberCloud CAE experiments remain the same: To perform engineering experiments in the cloud with real applications in order to understand the roadblocks of cloud-based CAE and how to overcome them.

In addition to the compendium, UberCloud has also added new Linux Docker based-containers to its marketplace. By using these containers, engineering teams were able to improve and shorten experiment times from an average of three months or weeks to just a few days.
