Rajesh Bhaskaran’s work seeks to promote the “democratization of simulation” through effective integration of simulation tools into engineering education. He directs the Swanson Lab and has helped introduce industry-standard simulation tools into Cornell courses covering fluid mechanics, heat transfer, solid mechanics, and numerical analysis. Dr. Bhaskaran has led the development of SimCafe.org as an online portal for learning and teaching finite-element and CFD simulations. SimCafe is used worldwide in courses as well as for self-paced learning by students and industry professionals. Dr. Bhaskaran has developed a unified methodology for using simulation in disparate lecture-based and lab courses. This methodology teaches students to approach simulations like an expert rather than just pushing buttons and accepting results at face value. Dr. Bhaskaran’s professional interests include engineering applications of simulation technology, reliable deployment of advanced simulation by generalist engineers, and conceptual change in learners using simulations. He has organized two international workshops on simulation in engineering curricula.

Unleashing the Power of Simulations
Industrial Applications of Engineering Simulation Software
Tuesday, October 24, 2023, 1pm EDT
Event Overview
To combine the art of design with the science of simulation, non-specialists need to learn the big ideas underlying the science, which are very accessible even if math isn’t your thing. The democratization of simulation will enable design engineers and other non-specialists to unleash the power of simulations earlier in the design cycle, leading to better products. You can focus on the exciting big ideas since simulation tools will take care of the specifics of the math.
Join us for a discussion with Dr. Rajesh Bhaskaran from the Cornell University College of Engineering as we explore how you can learn both the science and the practice of simulation efficiently at once. We’ll discuss problem-based learning to help you grasp industrial applications of finite element analysis and computational fluid dynamics.
The simulations discussed in this Keynote are implemented using industry-standard tools from Ansys, Inc.
