6 Simulation is now used throughout the development process Concept Design Detailed Design Performance Validation

7 Why has this change occurred? Increased confidence in simulation results Over time organizations have matured in their ability to use CAE results Market pressure to shorten development timelines Recognition that simulation is one way to achieve this 100% Cost committed Product knowledge Simulation technology itself has evolved Results come back faster Ability to simulate more physics domains Broader applicability in terms of development cycle Cost incurred Ability to change New Product Introduction measures during incubation phase

8 How does simulation driven design help me? Discover new, unimagined design possibilities Simulation-driven design concepts lead to lighter yet stronger products Increase design confidence while increasing speed to design release Performing simulation in-synch with design results in faster feedback and better designs

20 Topology Optimization Generate an optimized, conceptual design based on performance criteria Based on structural analysis of entire design space Good to use at conceptual stage of design or when seeking ways to reduce part weight Reduce design and analysis cycles Develop lighter, yet stronger components Designers can use convergent modeling to create final design

33 Case study Wirth Research Our engineers are responsible for the whole job and they carry out their own analysis using the embedded tools in NX. Our approach cuts out delays and errors of communication between lots of people across lots of disciplines. The motivation and interest is great and we get the job done.

34 Case study Wirth Research Our engineers are responsible for the whole job and they carry out their own analysis using the embedded tools in NX. Our approach cuts out delays and errors of communication between lots of people across lots of disciplines. The motivation and interest is great and we get the job done. If the suspension changes or if the dampers change, the gearbox designer can input a different clearance or damper cutout and also get a result in half an hour. He can then analyze the new box in just a couple of hours, which is unbelievably good and is more or less real time as far as we are concerned.
