Race-Tec Sealing supplies a large proportion of constant velocity CV boots into motorsports and for high-performance military vehicles. Sports cars, military and off road vehicles – which are often steered at sharper angles, at high speeds, and in the case of the latter, on uneven ground – are quite demanding on CV boots. The boots must …
Guardian Automotive, one of the largest global producers of flat glass, was looking to optimize the manufacturing process of car windows. The purpose was twofold: to meet the time constraints of car manufacturers, and to increase internal efficiency. Charles Courlander, a senior development engineer at Guardian, was part of the team responsible for developing techniques …
An aero parts manufacturer needed to successfully drop test a flexible fluid container from a height of 80 feet in order to certify the part. Inaccuracies in the predictions led to 5 failed drop tests, each of which cost approximately $55k. The continued failure of the expensive physical tests prompted the company to acquire Marc …
Intake and exhaust systems contribute significantly to the total noise level of ground vehicles (passenger cars, motorcycles, heavy machinery) or any other tool equipped with combustion engines such as chain saws, for example. From a general perspective, it is possible to identify three reasons for studying the acoustic performance of these systems: Noise regulations are becoming more and …
Every day, MSC’s simulation products are being used by companies from all industries to design, test, and validate the most innovative products in the world. The Simulating Reality Contest, held annually by MSC, invites users to share their success by submitting videos or images that demonstrate how they are using our software in product development. …
Simulation and analysis, or Computer Aided Engineering (CAE), enables engineers and organizations to analyze and explore new packaging processes and methods in a virtual environment, reducing the time and cost requirements associated with physical and experimental testing. For over 40 years, product manufacturers in transportation industries have relied on computer simulations as a means to …
