    The document outlines 10 commandments for CAE (computer-aided engineering) engineers. The commandments advise engineers to: 1) ensure modeling is started and finished in time to guide the design process rather than just report results; 2) discuss modeling assumptions with customers; 3) use simpler modeling approaches like measurements or calculations if they are better; 4) avoid over-detailed models and ensure benefits outweigh costs; 5) provide order-of-magnitude rather than absolutely accurate results in time to guide designs; 6) work as part of the project team rather than just delivering reports; 7) have good product and process knowledge for effective modeling; 8) document models so others can use them; and 9) verify results with calculations

    10 Commandments of CAE Engineer

    1. PURPOSE
    To bring the state of art into our CAE work. 1. M AKE SURE YOU BEGIN IN TIME TO ENSURE THAT THE RESULTS ARE STILL OF USE IN THE DESIGN PROCESS ( THE LONGER THE DESIGN PROCESS IS RUNNING THE LESS DESIGN FREEDOM THERE IS ). M AKE ESPECIALLY SURE YOU FINISH IN TIME ! DISCUSS WITH YOUR CUSTOMER THE PURPOSE OF THE MODEL AND ASSUMPTIONS YOU WILL BE USING ( IN TERMS OF MECHANICS, NOT FINITE ELEMENTS ) AND MAKE SURE THESE ARE UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED UPON. USE MEASUREMENTS, EXPERIENCE, PREVIOUS WORK, HAND CALCULATIONS AND COMMON SENSE IF THESE ARE BETTER ALTERNATIVES . A MODEL SHOULDNT BE USED IN THE SAME WAY AS A HARDWARE PROTOTYPE DONT TRY TO MAKE ONE MODEL TO ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS. SIMULATION IS A POWERFUL TOOL TO UNDERSTAND THE BEHAVIOR OF THE DESIGN BY USING PARAMETER VALUES WHICH CANNOT BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE REAL PROTOTYPE . A COMPUTER MODEL HAS MEANS TO IMPROVE THE DESIGN PROCESS BECOME AN AIM ITSELF. DONT LET IT

    6.

    RESIST THE TEMPTATION OF MAKING YOUR MODEL TOO DETAILED ( EVEN IF THE CUSTOMER INITIALLY ASKS FOR A DETAILED ONE). M AKE SURE THAT THE BENEFITS OUTWEIGH THE COSTS . ORDER OF MAGNITUDE RESULTS WHICH ARRIVE IN TIME TO GUIDE THE DESIGN PROCESS ARE MORE USEFUL THAN ACCURATE RESULTS WHICH ARRIVE AFTER THE DESIGN HAS BEEN FROZEN . ABSOLUTE ACCURACY IS NOT THE AIM OF SIMULATION. KEEP IN CONTACT WITH THE CUSTOMER AND CONTINUOUSLY MONITOR THE RELEVANCE OF YOUR CALCULATIONS . T RY TO WORK AS A MEMBER OF THE PROJECT TEAM AND NOT AS A SUPPLIER THAT DELIVERS A REPORT EVERY NOW AND THEN. C ALCULATIONS ARE MOST EFFECTIVE IF YOU HAVE A GOOD KNOWLEDGE OF THE PRODUCT, THE APPLICATION AND THE DESIGN PROCESS . O NE OFF CALCULATIONS ARE OFTEN DISSATISFYING FOR BOTH PARTNERS. DOCUMENT YOUR MODEL IN SUCH A WAY THAT ANOTHER USER CAN USE YOUR MODEL WITHOUT LOSING TOO MUCH TIME . VERIFY YOUR RESULTS WITH HAND CALCULATIONS AND MEASUREMENTS .
