Events / Abaqus Users' Conference

Contributed Papers
Our customers’ commitment to presenting their strategies and applications is the main reason for the ongoing success of the AUC. This year’s abstracts from the Automotive, Aerospace, Electronics, and Oil & Gas Industries, as well as others, have been reviewed and selected to uphold the AUC’s reputation for outstanding quality. The following is a list of abstracts submitted for this year's event. The final program will be dependent on final acceptance of papers and successful completion of all other presenter requirements.
