Beyond Traditional V&V – Achieving Credibility of Modelling and Simulation

T​hursday, 13th November 2025

Do you want to understand how to undertake Verification and Validation (V&V) to meet today’s needs and tomorrow’s challenges? As we simulate more complex problems across more application domains then we need to develop the way in which we establish the credibility of those simulations for own organisation, our partners and external stakeholders. Join us at our upcoming event where industry leaders will explore what the latest trends in simulation such as generative design, democratization and a host of others will mean for V&V. Don't miss out on this opportunity to explore new strategies, tackle current challenges, and learn how to make simulations count in today's dynamic landscape. Let's shape the future of V&V together and ensure our products are better, more reliable and trusted than ever before!

Event Objectives

• Understanding Verification and Validation in the current rapidly changing environment.
• What are the current Challenges for in V&V in both traditional domains and in emerging domains such as EMC, and co-simulation?
• How do we use simulation to help us understand and assess risk?
• Explore the trade-offs between quick up-front analyses and more detailed analyses. Are we getting the balance right?
• Democratization and generative design are shifting simulation tools into the hands of designers, what are the implications of this on traditional V&V?
• How do we deal with physical test correlation?
• What should physical tests that support V&V look like in the future?
• How are we specifying the physical test to support simulation?
• Can we identify potential future directions and advancements in V&V practices within simulation?
• How do we develop sufficient confidence to sign off requirements using simulation?
• What is the role of NAFEMS benchmarks in all of this?
