Who would force women to wear men´s shoes, size 45? Would anyone want to make women drive cars with crash-safety systems for men? A sustainable transport system without life and health loss is part of the Swedish transport political goals. The largest cause of impairment due to traffic accidents is the so-called whiplash injury.
Technical systems are becoming increasingly complex and at the same time are supposed to become lighter and lighter. In view of these challenges, the vibration optimization of lightweight structures can quickly become so complex that it can no longer be controlled by conventional methods.
HORIBA, supplier and innovation driver for complex vehicle inspection systems, has announced a strategic cooperation with 3D Mapping Solutions GmbH from Holzkirchen, Germany.
Catalytic converters in vehicles help to reduce the pollutants in the exhaust gases. In order to further develop catalytic filters so that they work even more efficiently, industry is relying on innovative mathematical methods and machine learning.
The NHTSA saw great potential for the use of Human Body Models (HBMs) in the development of safer vehicles and therefore became a sponsor of the Global Human Body Modeling Consortium (GHBMC) which was founded in 2006.
On more than 60 pages of CAE knowledge, experts provide valuable information on the theory and application of numerical simulation within CAE-based vehicle development.
Government authorities and companies world-wide have prohibited participation in events and travel. In order to enable the CAE community to take part in the automotive CAE Grand Challenge 2020, we have postponed the conference to September.
VI-grade announced that it has expanded its product line with all NVH Simulation Software and NVH Driving Simulators from its sister company Brüel & Kjær. The move opens many opportunities to combine technologies from Brüel & Kjaer and VI-grade, in order to deliver unique, high-value solutions to the automotive market.
In addition to learning platforms and e-lectures, virtual and augmented reality technologies are becoming increasingly important in the engineering sector. The IAT of the University of Stuttgart, partner of the Fraunhofer IAO, is developing concepts in the "VIRAI" project on how virtual reality (VR) can be increasingly used in teaching.
Additive manufacturing has the potential to open up new dimensions in lightweight design. At present, however, the available aluminum alloys do not meet the high crash performance requirements of automotive industry, as the current processes are primarily producing high-strength materials.
