Altair India announces the next round of the Altair Optimization Contest (AOC) for Students in 2012.
In March 2012, Altair India announced the first edition of the Students Optimization Contest. This program is meant for students (UG/PG/PHD) of Mechanical, Aerospace, Civil Engineering and Production Engineering.
We are also pleased to announce the addition of an Industry Partner – Ashok Leyland, on this program. Ashok Leyland (www.ashokleyland.com) is a leading Automotive OEM, supplying to global markets. Ashok Leyland R&D has been one of the earliest adopters of CAE & optimization technologies. They are also one of Altair’s largest customers in India for HyperWorks.
The objective of the contest will be for students to offer solutions to a combination of -
- • Defined Optimisation contest problems using Altair’s industry leading optimisation solution “OptiStruct”
- • Their own defined problems analysed/optimised using Altair’s HyperWorks
All completed entries will be judged* by Panel of CAE experts from Ashok Leyland and Altair India.

Hello Sir/Ma’am,
Thanks for taking such initiative in India and I’d be happy to be a participant in this competition but earlier I’ve got very little or no exposer to Hyperworks but yes I’ve studied FEM and CFD quite in details. I’ve got some experience on modelling using Pro/E software. Can I be a part of this competition (It’d be a great learning experience) and yes how I can be a part of it. Are we going to get any certification from Altair University or Altair?
Waiting for your reply
