On-Demand Webinar

Unified Multiphysics Modeling:
From Concept to Sca
lable Execution

In this webinar, we present a next-generation open-source multiphysics framework designed for flexible, scalable, and robust simulation of multi-region continuum problems within the OpenFOAM ecosystem. With a novel modular architecture, this framework enables seamless integration of arbitrary physical subdomains and supports both monolithic and partitioned coupling strategies - at the level of each individual transport equation.

You will gain deep insights into the formulation of generalized interface conditions, the software's layered C++ design, and its application to problems ranging from conjugate heat transfer to multiphase flows, lithium-ion batteries, and FSI. Whether you are developing new solvers or looking to simulate advanced coupled systems at scale, this session is tailored to accelerate your work.

Overview:
  • Introduction to computational multiphysics and its motivation
  • Mathematical foundation: generalized equations and interface conditions
  • Design philosophy: modularity, extensibility, and high-performance parallelism
  • Implementation features: run-time selection, object registry, coupled boundary conditions
  • Deployment examples: Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT), Lithium-Ion Batteries, Multiphase Flow, and Fluid-Structure-Interaction (FSI)
  • Comparison to existing multiphysics frameworks (OpenPALM, preCICE, MOOSE, etc.)
FluidStructureInteraction
MultiPhaseFlow

The learing objectives:

  • Understand the unified mathematical formulation behind coupling
  • Learn to assemble region- and interface-specific physics independently
  • Apply monolithic and partitioned coupling strategies effectively
  • Gain fundamental strategies for domain decomposition and parallel execution
  • Explore how to use the framework in real-world applications and benchmarks

Who is the webinar suitable for?

  • Researchers and engineers working on coupled physics simulations
  • Computational scientists building high-fidelity digital twins
  • Developers of fuel cell, heat transfer, FSI, and multiphase flow models
  • HPC specialists seeking modular and scalable CFD multiphysics solutions
  • Advanced OpenFOAM users developing custom solvers
