E-Motor Powertrain Simulation and Test - #Simrod With Simrod's E-Motor #powertrain, a #simulation model was crafted for #motion and #acoustics analysis. By comparing test data with the analysis results, we found the #CAE model was too stiff. Using design space exploration to optimize joint representations, we significantly reduced modal frequency errors from 58% to just 3%! More on Simrod: https://bit.ly/3XNqwRJ

Altair announced it will work with Auburn University, Samuel Ginn College of Engineering on a $1.25 million AFWERX Phase II STTR contract. The two organizations will develop analytical models for cyclonic flows, construct computational models, and study the stability of different vortex engines to address the challenges facing public and private sector aerospace organizations. The project team will use Altair FlightStream, part of the Altair HyperWorks platform, to identify optimal conditions within vortex engines: https://bit.ly/3BkhLpl #OnlyForward

Siemens Simcenter STAR-CCM+ 🏎 Without doubt, physical wind tunnel tests remain a viable tool for any vehicle assessment. It is crucial as the ultimate validation tool late in the development cycle and relevant for early singular prototype assessments. However, with high operating cost on the one hand and the need to assess thousand of aerodynamics variants and conditions on the other, it needs to be complemented by virtual development methods. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation is the key technology to predict and understand real-world aerodynamics behavior. Based on that engineers can explore many design variants in search for optimum solutions in the most cost-efficient manner. #cfd #cae #aerodynamics #automotive

Available in full below: #openaccess research from the SAE International Journal of Electrified Vehicles! This article proposes a coupling architecture for remotely validating powertrain assemblies using hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) simulations and machine learning algorithms. The proposed design virtually couples geographically distant test rigs or simulation systems in order to evaluate the components of a powertrain or other complex systems. This architecture allows for the validation of powertrain assemblies or the testing and evaluation of hybrid vehicles, power systems, and control systems without the need for physical prototypes. The goal is to accelerate the development process, reduce costs, and improve the accuracy and fidelity of the virtual coupling compared to direct transmission of signals. "A Coupling Architecture for Remotely Validating Powertrain Assemblies" is written by Adria Ametller, PhD and Chris Brace (University of Bath, UK).
