System Dynamics and Structural Durability

Be part of the in-person ECS Simulation Conference 2023. It brings together users of FEMFAT & FEMFAT LAB, KULI and Dynamic Simulations and thus provides the perfect forum for exchange of ideas.

 

The world around us is changing at an unprecedented pace, and in industry this change is being driven mainly by electrification. For development, this change is opening up numerous interesting new areas. As the market moves more and more from combustion engines to battery electric vehicle solutions, a stronger focus on innovation is becoming apparent. More time and resources are flowing into electrification research and development.
Everything is closely connected and standardized, such as how to measure loads, properties or material properties, how to do dynamic simulations with MBS or FEA, how to use the results in fatigue analyses for highly efficient test benches.
Although accuracy and efficiency have been greatly enhanced over the past years, there is still room for improvement. 

Lectures will focus on the following fields:

FEMFAT

​​​​​​​Fatigue analysis delivers the final assessment of component´s structural durability performance bringing together all system information generated by measurement, MBS and FEA before.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

DYNAMICS

​​​​​​​Dynamic analysis of systems and vehicles often plays the intermediate role in the engineering CAE process, receiving information from measurements (loads, responses, properties) and delivering information to fatigue analysis and testing.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

FEMFAT LAB

Signal processing and generation supports the development process in several instances like conversion of raw measurement data, generation of loads for MBS models and definition and optimization of load spectra for validation testing.
