PITTSBURGH, April 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The global
Convergence Conference series, presented by ANSYS (NASDAQ: ANSS),
begins today in Silicon Valley, bringing together industry
visionaries to share the latest trends, best practices and
applications in engineering simulation. Over the course of the next
several months, customer speakers from such industry leaders as
Airbus, AREVA, BMW, Daimler AG, John Deere, Mars and Volkswagen
will share their simulation successes as well as important lessons
learned.
The Convergence Conferences feature panel discussions,
workshops, breakout sessions and case studies, as well as valuable
simulation insights showcasing the unique ways companies leverage
solutions from ANSYS to solve complex engineering problems. For
example, presenters will discuss such diverse topics as using
simulation to create longer-lasting batteries and to study valve
motion in the human heart.
"I'm excited to deliver the keynote address at the Santa Clara
Convergence Conference," said Thomas E.
Markusic, CEO of Firefly Space Systems. "Simulation is
transforming our vision of `NewSpace' – opening up space for
business and exploration by building the world's lowest-cost, small
satellite delivery system – into reality. It's helping us to make
space highly profitable, improve life on earth and extend human
exploration to Mars."

virtual prototypes are changing virtually every industry around the
world. The Convergence Conferences are proof of that," said Sin Min
Yap, ANSYS vice president of marketing. "The stories these
customers tell are truly inspiring – and lead to innovative
products that are improving lives everywhere."
With local language presentations and numerous locations to
