CAELinux 2013 development

Sunday, 07 April 2013 11:28 Joël Cugnoni

Development of CAELinux 2013 release has officially started!

Even better, CAELinux is moving to a collaborative development model and will propose packages in a repository to streamline testing, installation, upgrade and removal of software over many years. This will mean, no more need to reinstall from scratch to upgrade !

A collaborative development platform has been setup on SourceForge.net and is now open for tester and contributing developers.

CAELinux 2013 release will be based on (X)Ubuntu 12.04 64bit LTS and testing packages for this platform are now ready for testing.

To test these packages, to contribute or to learn more, please read further on this forum thread or directly on caelinux.sourceforge.net

New Release: CAElinux 2011

Saturday, 15 October 2011 23:32 Joël Cugnoni

Today we are really proud to announce our new release: CAELinux 2011.

CAELinux 2011 is based on Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS 64bit distribution and contains a unique suite of open source simulation tools like Salome_Meca 2011.2, Code-Aster 11.0, Code-Saturne 2.0.2, OpenFOAM 2.0.1, Elmer 6.2 and many others. CAELinux 2011 represents a complete update of the distribution with up-to-date software for a better support of modern hardware and a significantly enhanced ease of use, and we hope that you will enjoy it. This release is only available in the form of an liveDVD ISO image for AMD/Intel 64 bit CPUs that can be burned on a DVD or installed on a USB key for "mobile" use and testing and then installed on hard-disk for best performance.

Welcome to CAELinux

Friday, 14 October 2005 14:30 Joël Cugnoni

Welcome to CAELinux.com, the website dedicated to the computer aided engineering Linux distribution CAElinux.

Thanks to Open Source, now you just need to insert the CAELinux LiveDVD in your computer to turn it into a professionnal CAE / FEA / CFD workstation: no licence and even no installation is required !

Based on the open-source CAE softwares Salomé, Code_Aster, Code_Saturne, OpenFOAM and Elmer , you can load your CAD geometry, generate a computation mesh and setup your simulation problem in a few minutes.

Then you can simulate incredibly complex physics with the open-source FE & CFD solvers Code_Aster, Code-Saturne, OpenFOAM & Elmer: non-linear thermo-mechanics, coupled fluid-structure dynamics, seismic / non-linear explicit dynamics, contacts, visco-plasticity, fluid dynamics, heat exchange, convection heat transfer and radiation in other words nearly all physics problem can be addressed with the integrated solvers!! Then reload your results files in post-processing applications like Salomé, GMSH or Paraview to visualize your data in 3D... And don't forget all these features are based on open-source / free softwares, so now you don't have to pay for any expensive licenses and if you want, you can even improve it.

CAELinux in the Cloud

CAELinux on Amazon Elastic Cloud Computing infrastructure

Do you wish to run a large simulation job but you cannot afford to pay for an high-end server with 64gb of RAM? You CFD simulation are taking days on your laptop and you would like to speed-it up using an "on-demand" Cluster?

CAELinux in the Cloud may be the solution you were waiting for !

Using Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud, you can now run as many CAELinux servers, on-demand, with the hardware that fits your simulation needs (up to 8 cores / 64 GB RAM) and this just by paying the server hours !
