Help us Identify the Current Critical Challenges of Automotive CAE!

In preparation for the automotive CAE Grand Challenge 2026, we are identifying the current, critical challenges of automotive CAE.

You work in CAE in the automotive industry and face a major technical challenge. Describe it in a few words and transfer it to us via the page Survey at the GC26 website until September 1st! We will add your challenge to our list.

In a web-based survey, we will then determine the 7 most critical current challenges from the list. These will form the topics of the Automotive CAE Grand Challenge 2025 and hopefully will be solved following the conference through the cooperation of industry, research and software development.

Seminar: Introduction to Impact Biomechanics and Human Body Models

article imageTo prevent human injury in traffic accidents it is necessary to understand the biomechanics of impact. This can be achieved through experimental studies with volunteers or post-mortem human subjects. Mechanical anthropometric crash test dummies have been developed to provide tools for the development and assessment of safety systems under specific loading scenarios. With increasing computer capacity, human body models have become popular tools. This course covers the basics of impact biomechanics, such as human anatomy, population variance, mechanical properties of human tissues, and injury criteria. Finally, it focuses on computational models of the human body and their use in developing and evaluating safety systems. Karin Brolin is an internationally renowned expert in impact biomechanics and human modeling.

Using Friction for Noise Reduction and Lightweight Design

article imageUnder dynamic loads, lightweight structures can be subject to vibrations that on the one hand generate disturbing noises and on the other lead to material fatigue. In the "LEICHT_DISS" project, friction elements were developed and evaluated that absorb vibration energy as part of lightweight structures and lead to a stabilization of the system. In addition to increased functionality and safety, the use of these new technologies also enables weight savings as well as economic and ecological potential in component design.

Mining Data on Material Fatigue from Scientific Publications with AI

article imageThe scarcity and expense of fatigue data limits optimal design of components and constrains companies to a few well qualified materials when safety-critical applications are concerned. Scientists of Fraunhofer IWM together with colleagues at the University of California, Santa Barbara, have developed strategies for significantly improving the extraction of structured information from unstructured scientific literature -the largest corpus of fatigue data to date. They have published their findings on the ChemRxiv platform.
