This fact became especially prevalent for fluid dynamics and heat transfer engineering problems. CFD analysis became a popular solution as the complexity grew in applying the laws of physics directly to real-life scenarios in order to make analytical predictions. CFD is the branch of fluid mechanics that makes use of computers to analyze the behavior of fluids and physical systems. So how can engineers use this to their advantage?Ĭomputational fluid dynamics (CFD) was a result of scientific evolution resulting from curiosity to see, understand, and evaluate the effects of different fluid flows. No longer can engineering teams be bound by project silos, time zones, or physical locations to meet demanding deadlines. Nowadays, almost every enterprise uses the cloud in some capacity, and Forbes has even gone as far as to track the top 100 cloud companies. The subsequent evolution of cloud computing can maybe be best described by Professor Ramnath Chellapa of Emory University from back in 1977, when he stated that it was a new, “computing paradigm, where the boundaries of computing will be determined by economic rationale, rather than technical limits alone”. With the help of two million dollars in funding for Project MAC, the first ‘Cloud’ in the now saturated cloudy horizon appeared. The Evolution of the CloudĬloud computing was born, so to speak, in 1963 at MIT when their team of computer scientists were tasked with making a computer usable by two or more people, simultaneously. Much like human evolution, characterized by changing the inherited means of growth and development that typify a population, the same is true for the evolution of scientific disciplines and human processes through technology, such as computing, computation, and numerical analysis.
