Helping design and engineering professionals discover, evaluate and specify technologies and processes that shorten the design cycle and enable success. This is a collaboration with NVIDIA, Synopsys, Argonne National Laboratory, and Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. Using AI and computational tools, Thea Energy will work with NVIDIA and Synopsys, and the U.S. DOE’s Argonne National Laboratory and Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratoryto analyze and scale datasets.

Massivit has launched RapidWings—a new turnkey composite manufacturing platform. Established to advance defense production lead times, the platform is operational in Israel and currently scaling operations globally. Built on Massivit’s Cast-In-Motion (CIM) technology, RapidWings compresses composite tooling lead times into a matter of days. RapidWings partners have reported up to 70% savings in cost, versus conventional metal and machinable-board tooling, according to Massivit.

Super Micro Computer, Inc. introduces the Data Center Building Block Solutions (DCBBS) Blueprint for high-performance computing based on the NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL4 platform. The Blueprint is based on Supermicro's DCBBS, which provide the necessary compute, networking, advanced liquid cooling, power distribution, and site infrastructure, delivered by a team of Supermicro DCBBS experts to advance time-to-online for research institutions and supercomputing centers.

Earlier this year, Elon Musk announced that his SpaceX company would put data centers into Earth’s orbit to help meet the enormous need for compute power generated by artificial intelligence (SpaceX has merged with Musk’s xAI project) while reducing the need for power. “You’re power constrained on Earth,” he said.

AMD and Rackspace Technology have signed a definitive agreement for the phased deployment of an initial 30 MW footprint dedicated to AMD-based compute deployments across Rackspace's global data centers beginning in late 2026 through 2028. The agreement operationalizes the memorandum of understanding announced May 7, 2026, and establishes AMD as a technology partner at the silicon layer of Rackspace's governed AI stack.

Xvisio Technology, developer of spatial computing and advanced product solutions, has launched a new lineup of enterprise-class mixed reality (MR) glasses with high-precision tracking peripherals and physical AI training data collection head-mount devices. The SeerLens B50R Pro2, a lightweight  enterprise-class MR headset, is built to handle industrial and medical workloads.

The screen app for Gravity Sketch gets a host of upgrades for 6.6.6. These latest updates make it faster to set up your workspace, easier to iterate without switching contexts, and clearer when you're watching virtual reality (VR) users work, according to Gravity Sketch. You can use screen to prep a room before heading into VR, or as your primary way of reviewing and collaborating on 3D content. Setting up for a design diagnostic or collaborative review used to mean importing files one by one.

Graitec shares the release of Advance Design 2027, the latest version of its FEM structural analysis and design software. At the heart of Advance Design 2027 are two innovations: a new Open API and the integrated Graitec Assistant. The new Open API supports integration with common development environments and helps engineering teams build custom workflows, automate repetitive modeling tasks, and run parametric studies with reduced manual interaction.

Helping design and engineering professionals discover, evaluate and specify technologies and processes that shorten the design cycle and enable success. HELYX 4.5.1 is a maintenance release focused on bug fixes, stability improvements and code refinements. ENGYS develops advanced open-source CFD software solutions for enterprise applications designed to make fluid dynamics simulations more accessible and cost-effective.

Helping design and engineering professionals discover, evaluate and specify technologies and processes that shorten the design cycle and enable success. A COMSOL team, led by Ed Fontes, analyzed the acoustics of el gigante's sound system using modeling and simulation. Figure 1.
