Advanced Optimization Strategies in Automotive

L. Fuligno (EnginSoft SpA, I)

A general introduction to the model validation process, focusing on main difficulties and trying to trace a roadmap to successfully build reliable models.

Virtual Product Development applied to Automotive Use Case

RESTRICTED TO AUTOSIM MEMBERS ONLY AT PRESENTERS REQUEST

O. Tabaste (MSC.Software, F)

This use case briefly reviews how simulation can be included up-front in the design cycle via knowledge capture associated to CAD/CAE integration. Engineering process integration, that will be manageable and traceable though SDM, then expands virtual prototyping capability across the board of the entire product life cycle
