Vehicle Designs

Body Structural Design:
· Manufacturing Effect on Crash Performance
· Manufacturing Effect on Durability Performance
· Material Selection for Cost and Weight Reduced Vehicle Design

Structural Optimization:
· Weight savings and performance enhancements
· Objectives and constraints for multiple load cases
· Topology optimization – concept-level shape predictions
· Rib pattern identification
· Complex shape variable creation
· Optimal sizing of springs, dampers, beams, thicknesses
· Optimization for non-linear analyses
· Design sensitivity, DOE, and response surface fitting
