* Pre-seminar short course:

AI for Simulation Engineers

This workshop will introduce the participants to the applications of AI for simulation engineering. It will start with a beginner-friendly introduction to how AI systems work and how they are built. It will then cover use cases where AI outperforms traditional methods as well as cases where AI is not the optimal choice. Interactive elements and a Q&A are integrated to enhance understanding and engagement. Whether you're a beginner or have some knowledge of AI, this workshop will provide a balanced and realistic perspective on the evolving intersection of AI and simulation engineering.

Trainer: M​ax Kassera (yasAI)
Max Kassera studied mechanical engineering with a minor in economics at the University of Kaiserslautern-Landau, where he first applied machine learning and artificial intelligence to turbocharger design in 2017. After graduating, he was awarded two German government grants to develop AI software for mechanical engineering, which led to the incorporation of yasAI in 2022. With yasAI, Max began training engineers in applying AI to simulation projects with a focus on simulations and fluid mechanics.

T​his short course is an excerp of the NAFEMS accredited training course "Fundamentals of AI for Simulation Engineers"
