Dutch OpenFOAM User Group (DOUG)

Dutch OpenFOAM user group(DOUG) these are a bunch of enthusiastic members who use OpenFOAM to carry out CFD simulations and have formed a team which handles different domains of fluid flow which includes Combustion ,Magneto Hydrodynamics,multiphase flows and marine applications.
Any one can join this 'Special interest group (SIG)' and get your self equipped with their seminars and various other updates/activities on OpenFOAM.

SPOKEN TUTORIALS




Spoken Tutorial is the initiative of IIT BOMBAY for creating awareness and use of Free and Open source softwares for science and engineering which is funded by MHRD(Ministry of human resource development). Spoken tutorials are a kind of self learning techniques where the user can learn a software with the help of audio and video tutorial.There are various FOSS (Free and Open Source Softwares) available on the website of spoken tutorial.

For more information on spoken tutorial you can visit the website:

CAE LinuX

It is 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
1) Salomé
2) Code_Aster
3) Code_ Saturne
4) OpenFOAM 
5) 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.
