6 CAE into Faurecia Interior System CAE within PMS Product simulation Process simulation Program Management System Cockpit / IP / Console Head impact Knee impact Airbag deployment Pedestrian Impact Static Creep-expansion Vibration Air flow Door panel / Door Module Side impact Static Vibration Sun simulation Creep-expansion Injection molding Warpage Decoration process Thermocovering Skin thermoforming Fabric overmolding Foaming Cross car beam Crash Vibration 6

7 FAURECIA Experience with Altair Automation Process CAE Program Management System Design & development In design & development step, we work on all the products for the following tasks : crash static, vibration creep/expansion airflow injection covered part CAO Meshing Simulation Optimisation 7

8 Why Automate CAE process? Efficiency Cost reduction Lead time reduction Planning reduction Quality Standardization Quality increase (ISO certification, ) Reduce human sensitivity / Rework Global CAE Global load balance 8

9 Altair Hyperworks Automation possibility : a survey Focus on Hypermesh and Hyperview / Hypergraph Hypermesh HyperView / HyperGraph Basic Command file (re)play (cmf) Macros (tcl) Session file (re)play (mvw) Template file (tpl) Templex Macros (tcl) Macros + GUI (tcl) Macros + GUI (tcl) Advanced Process Manager (tcl or java) 9

10 Process Automation example 1 : inter-template communication NASTRAN is the central Template FROM / TO macros to quickly exchange data between templates Unified material database PAM-CRASH Abaqus Nastran 10

11 Process Automation Example 2 : NVH Pre-Processing automation FAURECIA knowledge & Standard Standard Nastran Parameters MACROS EIGRL output Model Specific Loadstep browser Boundary conditions SPC, MPC Customer specific Super Element, 11

12 Process Automation Example 2 : NVH Post-Processing and report automation 12

13 Process Automation example 3 : Head Impact ECE21 analysis Import model Common Part Import impactor Simulation properties Impact point location Export Define contact Iterative Part Inititial Condition Head Position Process Manager : Interactivity Browser like look n feel 13

14 Conclusion Objectives reached Faurecia / Altair partnership Standardization is a prerequisite Don t forget user s formation 14
