In fact FMI appears at first glance to be an XML  syntax update to the Modelica language.

The state of CFD

The state of CFD at the beginning of 2014. This is a great article that highlights the fact that interoperability (the process of CAD->mesh->analysis) is still a challenge.

Mihai Pruna's introduction

Hi, my name is Mihai Pruna. I have a background in both aerospace and software engineering and am focused on interoperability between CAD and CAE (CFD,FEA or other CAD) software.
In this blog I will post interesting news in the field of CAE Interoperability.
