Rich Alferi, Respironics:Since I have been using WB for a while, I think I have had most of my questions answered through tech support and training classes (Yes we actually go to training classes!).

How do you become an AWE Wizard?

Simulation How To/Wish List

• Can submodeling be done in Workbench?

• When will WBE have transient thermal stress analysis with multifield elements in coupled field solution (something like machining or grinding; where heat can be generated due to material deformation)?

• Structural transient analysis

Simulation How To/Wish List

• Can we take control of the contour legend format and select a decimal format instead of scientific notation, i.e., make the stress contour legend NOT be reported as x10^4? (Wow, my stress is only 5.2 psi. Oh wait, it's 520,000. No, it's 52,000.)
