Presentation Transcript
2025 ANSYS Design Analysis Competition Sponsored by: Pearl Sullivan Engineering Ideas Clinic and Ansys Competition contact: Chris Rennick (chris.rennick@uwaterloo.ca)
Objective Objective: The Design Analysis Competition is intended to encourage the effective application of appropriate engineering analyses in the execution of a design project. The type of analysis is not restricted, but verification of design using computational or numerical analysis (including but not limited to CFD, FEA, and/or statistical analysis) using appropriate engineering tools is the focus of this award.
Eligibility Eligibility: The competition is intended for final year engineering students, from any engineering program. Submissions will be by project team, although presentations can be made by one member. Note: the use of ANSYS software is not required for this award
Competition Timetable Applications Due: Friday, February 21 To: Chris Rennick (chris.rennick@uwaterloo.ca) Notification of Acceptance: Tuesday, Feb. 25 Presentation Date: Monday, March 3 Winners will be announced at the appropriate Symposia
Applications Submit One page including: Project title Program, team member names (and email), faculty advisor and course instructor, as appropriate Concise project overview Motivation and significance; Purpose of analysis Summary of analyses Analysis approach, including analysis type, tools (software) used, and verification Summary of results to date Impact of analysis on design Note that this summary should be targeted at a general engineering audience
Judging Format Up to 10 teams will be invited to make a presentation Presentations should be 10 minutes in length, plus 10 mins for questions Judges will be professors/staff from across the faculty covering a range of technical expertise, plus industry representative(s) as available Presentations should be aimed at a general engineering audience
Presentations Presentations should include: Introductions Project overview Context for analysis Detailed discussion of technical analyses Analysis approach Justification Analysis verification Analysis results Impact of analysis on design Evaluation rubric attached
