Up Close with Simulation: Exploring Dynamics of Mechanical Systems

In this in-depth session, Orang Vahid - Senior Director, Engineering Services at Maplesoft dives into the world of system-level simulation, showing how engineers use multi-domain models to understand, optimize, and troubleshoot complex mechanical systems especially in roll-to-roll (R2R) web handling.

Key Takeaways:

• What system-level simulation is and how it applies to mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and web-based systems
• How to build and refine simulation models using first-principles equations, including tension, elasticity, and slippage
• How to answer engineering questions using simulation: wrap angle optimization, slippage prediction, resonance detection, and material compatibility
• How simulations help engineers test “what-if” scenarios, explore failure modes, and guide design decisions without interrupting production
