The Expert Dialog
In the last 20 years computer simulation has become an indispensable tool in automotive development. Tremendous progress in software and computer technology make it possible today to assess product and process performance before physical prototypes have been built. Applications of computer simulation cover nearly all aspects of product and process design form crashworthiness to manufacturability.
Challenges in virtual vehicle development
Despite of significant progress in simulation technology and impressive results in industrial application there remains a number of problems (challenges) which prevent a “100% digital prototyping”.
Grand Challenge as a platform for dialog
The automotive CAE Grand Challenge stimulates the dialog between users, scientists and software developers in order to solve these challenges.
The Challenges for 2012 have been determined through a survey among CAE experts in the automotive industry. The Challenges for 2012 are:
- Crash: Material- and Failure Models for Composites
- Safety: Stability and Robustness of FE Dummy Models
- Durability: Hypotheses for Damage Accumulation
- NVH: Vibration Comfort
- CAE General: Robust Design
- CAE General: Simulation Data Management along the Development Process
In the conference one session will be dedicated to each “Grand Challenge”. In each session a simulation expert from the automotive industry will first explain the importance of the individual challenge. Next a researcher will highlight the state of research on the subject. This will be followed by presentations from the software companies involved in the discipline on their efforts to solve the individual challenge. We invite CAE experts from industry, research and software to propose presentations on the above given topics that fit into the structure of the sessions. If you would like to contribute a presentation at the automotive CAE Grand Challenge 2012 please contact Dr. Ulrich on +49 (0) 6023/9640-66 or dirk.ulrich@carhs.de.
