Car Racing with Jim Shaw
July 27, 2021 @ 7:00 pm
Join interviewer Andrew Celentano for an interesting discussion with Jim Shaw, an expert at Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) Solutions, with a core focus on Structural, Thermal, and Fluids Simulations using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). He has worked for Curtiss-Wright, Northrop Grunman, Bowe Bell & Howell, Kodak and Heidts Automotive Group, where he worked on the design of high-performance automotive chassis and suspension systems. He has raced cars on a variety of tracks and one of his fondest memories was racing a souped-up Mini-Cooper and beating out BMW’s. He’ll talk about the tracks he has raced on and the cars he raced with. We’ll find out more about how one goes about racing and the ins and outs of being successful on the track.
