Engineering the Next Generation of Defense & Aerospace - Advanced Multiphysics Simulation

Join us for an exclusive technical Half-Day Lunch & Learn

Date: Monday 11 May 2026

Location: Holiday Inn - Cairo - Citystars

Format: In-Person Technical Briefing & Networking Lunch

As defense platforms and aerospace systems become increasingly complex, the margin for error shrinks. Engineering teams are tasked with operating across multiple domains, land, sea, air, space while balancing performance, survivability, and rapid deployment.

Join us at Holiday In - Cairo, Citystars hotel for a focused, half-day technical deep dive into the latest modeling, simulation, and mission-engineering strategies. This is a unique opportunity to step away from your desk, connect with fellow engineering professionals, and explore physics-based workflows that are shaping the future of defense platforms.

Due to the highly interactive nature of these technical sessions and the included networking lunch, in-person seating is strictly limited. We encourage you to register early to secure your place.

Key takeaways from this session include

Connect Component Physics to Mission Outcomes: Learn how to bridge the gap between structural/fluid simulation and mission-level planning using Digital Mission Engineering (DME) across all domains.
Optimize for Survivability and Performance: Learn how advanced simulation workflows can help improve the survivability of critical assets, equipment, and service personnel while optimizing overall system performance.
Achieve Spectrum Dominance: Understand how integrated multiphysics modeling of RF, optical, and photonics systems accelerates the design of next-generation electronics and sensor platforms.

Agenda

10:30 - 11:15 - Registration and Networking Breakfast

11:15 - 11:30 - Introduction and Session Opening

11:30 - 12:00 - Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) & (Digital Mission Engineering) DME for Multi-Domain Defense Platforms

MBSE enables teams to make analytically informed decisions about system architecture using a self-consistent descriptive model. This session bridges the gap between those descriptive models and physics-based reality. We will explore how DME products enable engineers and analysts to connect modeling and simulation across the entire product lifecycle. Learn how to model operational environments and asset interrelationships with accurate, dynamic simulations to validate system designs directly against mission outcomes, whether on land, at sea, in the air, or in space.

12:00 - 12:30 - Structural Integrity, Light weighting & Survivability in Defense and Aerospace applications

Protecting personnel and platforms across threat environments requires more than robust design, it demands simulation-driven confidence at every stage of development. In this session, explore how structural simulation accelerates the design and validation of blast-resistant, ballistic-tolerant, and crashworthy systems, spanning personnel protective equipment, armored ground vehicles, and airframe & UAV platforms. Also, discover how Ansys solutions leverage additive manufacturing and advanced composites to design lightweight, high-performance structures that meet stringent survivability requirements

12:30 - 13:00 - High-Fidelity CFD for Aerodynamics, Propulsion & Thermal Management

Addressing complex aerodynamic, propulsion, and aeroelasticity challenges requires robust fluid dynamics modeling. In this session, we will highlight high-fidelity CFD capabilities and introduce the newly developed Fluent Aero workflow. This workflow streamlines the computation of aerodynamic performance parameters and automatically incorporates optimal numerical parameters based on your specific flow conditions, enabling you to evaluate performance across a massive range of operating environments efficiently

13:00 - 13:30 - Prayer & Coffee Break

13:30 - 14:00 - Achieving Electromagnetic Spectrum Dominance with Advanced Electronic and Optical System Simulation

This session introduces how advanced simulation technologies support the design and development of modern defense and space systems by combining electronics and optics engineering domains. Participants will explore how electromagnetic modeling enables the analysis of RF systems such as antennas, radar, and electronic warfare platforms, while optical and photonics simulation supports the development of electro-optical sensors, imaging systems, and laser-based technologies. By integrating electronic and optical system modeling, engineers can better understand system performance across the electromagnetic spectrum and accelerate the design of next-generation space and defense platforms

14:00 - 14:15 - Closing remarks
