Design customer-correlated durability test schedules

Mapping the real customer usage of your product to a condensed durability test scenario is not obvious. With LMS TecWare, any guesswork is eliminated by calculating, via an optimization procedure, the optimal mix of test track sections that match the target customer usage with respect to fatigue.

DAF Performs Durability Engineering at a Million Miles a Week

Having many variants causes a challenge for the design department: each vehicle must be tuned to minimize weight in order to compete with other manufacturers on payload and consequently transport efficiency – yet the vehicle must meet design life targets of over 1.2 million kilometers. Since 20% of the design effort is spent on durability engineering, being able to get the process faster and more reliable was one reason why DAF joined the international research project, FATYNAMICS.

KUKO, Designing Load Data You Can Count on

The ArbeitsKreis KUndenKOllektive (KUKO) was founded ten years ago by AUDI, BMW, DaimlerChrysler, Porsche, VW and LMS. The KUKO group had set as its goal to analyze the real customer usage in a statistical sense. Since accurate load data is a critical factor in durability engineering, the KUKO participants joined their forces to find more reliable, better manageable and less expensive ways to gain load data that can be trusted completely.
