1024. Optimizing Organizational Models to Improve Simulation Efficiencies

      This presentation was made at the NAFEMS Americas Seminar "Model-Based Engineering: What is it & How Will It Impact Engineering Simulation" held on the 1st of October 2019 in Columbus Ohio Resource Abstract BACKGROUND: The benefits of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) are well known and documented both within Medtronic and in external literature. However, there is a question concerning the most efficient means to organize the inclusion of M&S into the product development cycle. We tested the hypothesis that a hybrid development process (PDP) involving both Empirical and M&S methods in Centralized or Decentralized organizational structures lead to improvements in throughput and resource utilization....more

The steps to be taken are outlined before a discussion of the role of optimisation in both parameter target setting and robustness evaluation. Quiz Previous chapter Next chapter...more

1026. How Do You Know if you are Executing the Right Simulations at the Right Time?

      Analytical modeling and simulations are a part of most companies' product development process these days. Typically, there are a group of highly specialized CAE analysts that perform various physics-based simulations that consume significant budget resources, and time. If done correctly, the simulations are typically conducted early in the development phase in order to determine if a proposed solution will work under the desired boundary conditions. However, this may not be the case if your company is resource limited or directs most of the CAE resources to use simulations to assess post-test failures. Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) processes have been implemented within the product...more

1027. Talking Shop with Tony Abbey - Episode 10 - What are spider elements in FEA - why rigid and flexible types?

      Talking Shop with Tony Abbey Episode 10 - What are 'spider' elements in FEA - why rigid and flexible types? NAFEMS is talking shop with Tony Abbey on a range of topics relevant to, and suggested by, the engineering analysis community. This free series is open to everyone , and we hope you can join us online. We kicked off each session with a brief presentation on the subject from Tony, and thereafter, open up the floor for written questions and thoughts from you, the audience. The sessions was moderated, allowing the host to put your questions and comments direct to Tony, and we also made each episode live on our youtube and vimeo channels, as well as sharing on social media. This week...more

1030. What Makes the Integration of an SDM Successful? The Journey and Experiences of an Automotive Supplier

      Abstract The successful introduction of a simulation data management system is a complex matter and is subject to a large number of influencing variables and dependencies. Due to the time horizon, some of these variables are in a perpetual state of change and determine the course of the integration. We divided the implementation into four phases. Initially, the needs and potentials of the business units were determined and, based on these, an appropriate SDM tool selection was made in the next step. In phase three, the SDM software was piloted in the working environment and is now being rolled out worldwide. The capability for integration into the existing and future IT landscape, including...more
