DEP at NAFEMS ASEAN Conference 2026

Engineers and simulation specialists from across the region will gather to talk about where simulation technology is headed, and what it actually takes to put new methods to work on real product development problems. The conference is built around practical exchange: what's working, what's next, and how teams are using simulation to move faster on increasingly complex challenges.

Date: 20 November 2026

Venue: Novotel Singapore on Stevens

DEP at the Conference

Detroit Engineered Products (DEP) is taking part as a Silver Sponsor, bringing DEP MeshWorks, DEP AIWorks, Automotive Solutions, Vehicle Engineering, and AI/ML Services to the table. The common thread across all of it is pairing deep engineering knowledge with the right technology to make simulation workflows faster and design exploration less of a bottleneck.

DEP will also take the stage twice, with talks centered on how data driven methods are changing the way engineering teams approach simulation and design.

Featured Presentations

• Session 2, 10:50 AM

  Fast Optimization for Vehicle Exterior CFD Performance Using an AI Model

  Mr. Arul Ganesan, Project Manager at DEP, will walk through an approach to exterior CFD optimization built on AI surrogate models trained on simulation data. Instead of running a full CFD analysis for every design variation, engineers can get performance predictions faster and explore more options in less time.

• Session 3, 2:50 PM

  Accelerating Automotive Structural Design Exploration via Deep Latent Manifold Learning

  Mr. Bhavaneesh Athikary, VP - Tech & BD (Indo-Pac & GCC) at DEP, will present a data driven method for exploring structural design options, using geometric deep learning and surrogate modeling to build latent representations of complex geometries. The result is that engineers can compare structural possibilities more efficiently and get to insight faster.

Connect with DEP

DEP brings engineering expertise, simulation capability, and technology together to tackle complex product development problems. With solutions like MeshWorks and AIWorks, the goal is straightforward: help engineering teams cut through workflow friction, explore more design options, and get more value out of their simulation data.

Stop by and talk with the DEP team at NAFEMS ASEAN Conference 2026 about turning simulation data into faster, better design decisions!
