Reusable launchers are recognized as one of the solutions to lower launch costs. Contrary to more traditional expendable launchers, the reusable launchers are able to launch a payload and return part of the structure on the Earth surface. In 2015, ESA launched the Intermediate eXperimental Vehicle (IXV). This vehicle was developed by Thales Alenia Space …
NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) or N&V (Noise and Vibration), is a problem that is often directly tied to the overall quality of a product. Therefore, it is one of the most sought after targets for performance by product development teams to help differentiate themselves from competition. With the emergence of hybrid and electric vehicles, …
When dealing with multibody systems, it is common to use rigid body dynamics. However, introducing flexibility in the system can help better capture the system frequencies and thus make precise predictions possible. The Adams ViewFlex toolkit offers a quick method to generate flexibility bodies (or MNF files) in the system, especially for parts with simpler …
With more than 30,000 additively manufactured parts a year going into aircraft, trains, and high end automobiles, Additive Manufacturing has now become an effective industrial production technique. While AM brings valuable opportunities to the industry (weight saving, customization, decreased time-to-market), it still faces the same challenges other manufacturing processes face such as injection molding to …
