While many customers may judge a product by its looks, the engineering of its functional performance and the refinement of ’invisible’ features forms an equally important part of the development process. Legislation often dictates the standards for objective attributes such as structural integrity, sound levels and emission levels. And clearly the structure must withstand the forces it encounters in real-life. But how do you derive the dynamic design loads in complex multibody structures such as a suspension unit or engine system? How do you ensure an off-road vehicle will be just as reliable as the mainstream platform it was derived from? How do you guarantee crash and occupant safety while minimizing structural weight?
These and many other engineering questions and challenges are addressed in this portfolio of application cases.
