Title Description
Bombardier Bombardier uses VA One, vibro-acoustics simulation software, to simulate structure-borne noise transmission in trains.
Karmann Using PAM-CRASH and PAM-STAMP solutions, Karmann optimizes crash test simulation by including stamping effects. The coupling of crash and stamping simulation brings more insight into material behavior.
SEAT In order to bring safe, light and sports-oriented vehicles to the market, SEAT performs multiple realistic crash test scenarios with PAM-CRASH 2G. Thanks to HP Integrity servers based on Intel Itanium 2 processors, SEAT benefits from a hardware/software combination that shortens their development cycle by 15%.
Courage Competition Using composites design simulation and virtual crash testing, Courage Competition increases its momentum towards a victory at Le Mans 24-hour race.
TRW PAM-SAFE, ESI Group's safety systems simulation solution, leverages TRW Automotive's technology leadership in curtain airbags. Airbag deployment simulation helps TRW design new types of high performance curtain airbags.
Skoda PAM-CRASH 2G simulation solution for crash analysis helped SkodaAuto's Roomster score 5 stars at EuroNCAP. SkodaAuto integrates simulation and especially PAM-CRASH 2G early on in the design process, to allow for iterations and help tune the design.
MIZUNO Corporation MIZUNO Corporation uses PAM-CRASH to improve sports footwear performances. MIZUNO has simulated the impact of a soccer player's shoe on a soccer ball in order to improve both speed and control.
Tractebel Using SYSTUS multiphysics simulation solution, Tractebel improves defect tolerance analysis on a nuclear power plant reactor pressure vessel.
BMW SYSWELD, welding simulation solution, to predict distortions and strains on aluminum frame parts. BWM decided to form a partnership with ESI Group for a project which simulates the distortions and residual stresses on a rear axle swinging arm, due to heat effects of welding.
Mecaplast PAM-FORM is the cost-effective solution chosen by Mecaplast to optimize vehicle carpet manufacturing. PAM-FORM, simulation software for composite and plastic parts, drastically optimizes the press and manufacturing process of floor carpeting.
BMW BMW is experimenting the H-Model to optimize occupant protection in car crashes. BMW is carrying out scientific tests to study the response of both dummy and human models in side impact scenarios. Current investigations should greatly enhance future safety design for improved vehicle occupant security.
Umicore Umicore tunes the manufacturing process of a thin-walled zinc safety spool using ProCAST simulation software.
Advanced Cam Advanced Cam designs 50% faster "right first time tooling" of automotive parts with PAM-STAMP 2G.
Atlas Tool Atlas Tool, Inc. develops a sound springback compensation process with the help of PAM-STAMP 2G software.
Faurecia Using PAM-STAMP 2G, Faurecia reduces the tooling time to design seat components by 20%.
Precise Engineering Using PAM-STAMP 2G stamping simulation solution, Precise Engineering reduces costs by 80% in starting up progressive die.
Renault and Trèves RENAULT uses RAYON-VTM (Vehicle Trim Modeling) for the vibro-acoustic simulation of a fully trimmed vehicle.
Ballard Power Systems Flow Simulation with CFD-ACE+ improves the robustness of Fuel Cell Design.
Boeing Boeing adopts AutoSEA2 shock analysis to assess risks during orbital assembly of the International Space Station (ISS).
Sandia National Laboratories Computer Simulation with CFD-ACE+ improves the design of a hand-held Chemical Analysis System.
