EASY5 2000 User Conference

The Year 2000 EASY5 User Conference was held May 16 & 17, at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Bellevue, Washington, just 15 minutes from downtown Seattle. The conference was followed by a two day advanced class on modeling and simulating fluid power systems.

Conference Focus

The conference was focused on two major topics: Integrated Systems Design, and User Applications. The first day consisted of presentations that focused on the use of EASY5 and its integration with other tools for complete system design. Our guest speaker, Dan Williams of John Deere Co., presented a fantastic talk on the role of modeling in product development. This was followed with presentations on how EASY5 is linked with CAE and CAD tools.

The second day of presentations focused on general user applications, with a wide range of topics including modeling, aircraft fuel systems, pneumatics, electric power systems, and hydraulics. The conference concluded with a presentation on future EASY5 developments and an open customer forum to exchange ideas between the staff and customers.
