LUMINARY CLOUD
takes CAE to
THE CLOUD
Luminary Cloud uses
NVIDIA GPUs to offer
'real-time engineering'
to companies in the
automotive space.
Luminary Cloud's
physics solvers can
track airflow around
large vehicles as well
as small things like
golf balls.
The computer-aided engineering (CAE) part comes
from Luminary Cloud's physics software, which can
ingest CAD files, generate meshes, run solutions and
extract solutions for visualization.
" One of the things that we've done is, by leveraging
the GPUs in the cloud, we give you elasticity, " Alonso
said. " We can run one simulation, but 100 times faster
than the competition, so instead of taking four to six
hours to do a RAN simulation on a hundred million cells,
we can actually do it in a couple of minutes. If you're in a
crunch to run, let's say, 1,000 simulations in a day, you
don't have to have a cluster that has 30,000 GPUs to do
that, which would be a waste for your company. Rather,
you can utilize them for one day and then move on. "

24 hours in 60 minutes
Ian Lockley, Luminary Cloud's principal solutions engineer, told SAE
Media that the company's physics simulations impressed a potential
automotive customer who asked them to run a blind test analyzing a
transient aeronautics simulation. The customer's previous effort to
run the simulation took them 24 hours.
" Now, in my job, you never want a blind test, " Lockley said. " You
always want the test data before you run the simulation. But they
said, 'Run a simulation of this vehicle, and we're not gonna tell the
answer.' So we ran that simulation in less than an hour, and we were
within 3% of the results of that test data. So that was pretty cool. "
Alonso said Luminary Cloud offers another advantage over other
cloud-based CAE companies. The company knew it wanted to deliver
