Automation Hackathon
Gain expertise in scripting techniques to streamline workflows,
implement session executions, and craft efficient automation codes.
Enhance your CAE engineering productivity and unleash VE's fullpotential with our comprehensive training
Audience

Prerequisites

Tailored for CAE analysts seeking tostreamline their workflow and solve
specific challenges using automation
within Visual Environment (VE).

Familiarity with Python programming
language and basic understanding of any
VE context usage.

Description
Automation Hackathon course, where CAE analysts
delve into the world of automation within Visual
Environment (VE) to solve real-world challenges. The
problem solved during the course will come from theparticipants. Once the problem statements are defined,
participants will dive into the hands-on aspect of thecourse. Guided by experienced instructors, teams willleverage VE's automation capabilities to develop
creative solutions to the presented challenges. The challenge can be from meshing, modelbuilding or post processing which participants like to solve, participants will have the opportunity
to tackle a wide range of tasks using Python scripting and VE's customizable features. By theend of the course, participants will have gained valuable experience in automation within VE, as
well as enhanced problem-solving and understanding of automation framework. They'll leave
with a deeper understanding of how automation can revolutionize their CAE workflows and drive
efficiency and innovation in their organizations.
