Damon Rinard, R&D Engineer for Trek Bikes to Keynote CFdesign Customer Forums
Blue Ridge Numerics, Inc. announced that Damon Rinard, R&D Engineer in Trek's Advanced Concept Group, will keynote two upcoming CFdesign Customer Forums. His presentation will reveal how CFdesign helped Lance Armstrong win his seventh Tour de France and how Trek uses CFdesign to accelerate product development and generate better products. Damon will share correlation data between CFdesign and wind tunnel experiments as confirmation of CFdesign capabilities for external aerodynamics.
Damon Rinard is an enthusiast bike racer and has engineered bikes at Trek for four years. During that time he has engaged in the design of aerodynamic wheels for tandem bicycles, light weight Radial Ridge® machined rims and Lance's carbon fiber wheel hubs, among other projects. Most recently he contributed cutting edge virtual wind tunnel simulations necessary to accelerate the development of Lance's latest time trial bike, the Trek TTx.
Blue Ridge Numerics will host CFdesign Customer Forums at the Chicago O'Hare Westin, November 8 - 9th, and at the Providence, RI Westin, November 17 - 18th. All customers and users of CFdesign are invited to attend. Each event will offer opportunities for advanced training, continuing education, and professional networking.
