Generative Design Insights: Characteristics, Process and Sustainability

Our previous blog article “Generative Design Insights: Shifting the paradigm in 3D metal printing” dealt with the driving factors behind the emergence of generative design and what potentials arise for companies through the use of this technology. Analysts, therefore, expect significant market growth by the end of the decade. But what does Generative Design stand …

Commentary: What does eMobility mean to you?

The term ‘eMobility’ is becoming very popular these days as we look towards a more sustainable future. But as so often happens with buzzwords, their actual meaning becomes vague and in time you can use them to indicate all kinds of things. So, what does that ‘e’ actually mean in ‘eMobility’? Sure, we all know …

Debunking the 5 myths of Multibody Dynamics – Myth 5: Real-time MBD simulations = Reduced Order Models (ROMs)

A real-time simulation mandates that the virtual model delivers a response/solution output at specific time increments in the same or less time than the physical system. This way, the state of the virtual system is always synchronized with the physical components to provide an accurate testing environment.  For this reason, real-time compliant vehicle dynamics models …

Debunking the 5 myths of Multibody Dynamics – Myth 4: MBD simulations require specialist knowledge

Exploring the behavior of systems using simulation has traditionally been the domain of simulation engineers or analysts. Complexity in simulation interfaces, or in simulation techniques and procedures, created the need for highly specialized users. A lack of standards for model exchange and interoperability compounded these issues. In the field of systems dynamics simulation, MBD analysts …

Debunking the 5 myths of Multibody Dynamics – Myth 3: Multibody Dynamics Simulations is the same as simplified component level representations

In this blog series we are debunking 5 myths of multi-body dynamics. In this thirdblog, we address the myth that Multibody Dynamic Simulation is the same as simplified component level representations. In Multibody Dynamics (MBD) simulations, the most complex part within a mechanism may be represented as a simple link so that its dynamics can …

Debunking the 5 myths of Multibody Dynamics – Myth 2: Multibody Dynamics Simulation is Conceptual System Analyses

In this blog series we are debunking 5 myths of multi-body dynamics. In this second blog, we address the myth that Multibody Dynamic Simulation is the same as Conceptual System Analyses. Though Multibody Dynamic (MBD) Simulations are used heavily during the conceptual design of dynamic systems, their benefits extend through all phases of the development …
