Event
Transvalor International Simulation Days 2026
With more than 250 participants from 30 countries and over 40 industrial case studies presented in its last edition, the Transvalor International Simulation Days (TISD) has established itself as one of the global forums dedicated to material forming and numerical simulation. Bringing together the scientific community and key industrial players, the TISD 2026 will once again serve as a catalyst for innovation, offering engineers, researchers and decision-makers exclusive insights into next-generation simulation methods, game changer results and high-impact industrial applications. Held from September 29th to October 1st at the Palais des Congrès in Antibes Juan-les-Pins (France), this new edition will gather a uniquely technical audience around the challenges shaping the future of automotive, aerospace, energy, manufacturing and many other industries.
From forging to casting to microstructure evolution – Revealing simulation breakthroughs every manufacturer should know
As manufacturers face unprecedented pressure to reduce energy consumption, improve reliability and accelerate development cycles, simulation has become a cornerstone of industrial performance. The TISD 2026 will spotlight the technologies shaping this transition, from artificial intelligence to advanced defect prediction models, digital process chains and the latest developments in material behaviour simulation. Across more than 60 in depth presentations, participants will dive into cutting-edge progress in hot and cold forging, ingot casting, welding, heat treatment, microstructure evolution and multi-physics simulation, offering a unique overview of the methods that will define the next decade of industrial innovation.
Where advanced research meets industrial impact
At the TISD 2026, the strength of the program lies in its ability to to bridge theoretical advances with real-world applications. The event will showcase applied case studies demonstrating how simulation reduces material waste, lowers energy consumption, improves reliability and accelerates production workflows. Designed to keep the technical depth without the academic distance, the program blends plenary talks, live software demonstrations and high-value roundtables, creating a space where academic researchers, Transvalor simulation developers, industrial R&D experts and production engineers can directly compare methods, challenge assumptions and translate theory into operational performance.
Direct access to world-class experts for high-value technical insights
The TISD 2026 offers participants a rare opportunity to engage in one-on-one meetings with Transvalor’s technical experts. These private sessions are designed to dive deep into project- specific questions, explore new software functionalities, and define custom solutions to complex forming challenges. Whether you're developing a new alloy, optimizing a multi-step forming sequence, or integrating AI into your simulation chain, these exchanges offer real value for advanced users and technical teams.
