Simulation and modelling increasingly expedite widespread change across the automotive industry, writes Gemma Church
Today, an e-motor cannot be developed just by looking at the motor as an isolated unit; tight requirements concerning the integration into both the complete electric or hybrid drivetrain system and perceived quality must be met.
Altair ultraFluidX™ is a simulation tool for ultra-fast prediction of the aerodynamic properties of passenger and heavy-duty vehicles as well as for the evaluation of building and environmental aerodynamics. In this paper, the results of wind tunnel tests are compared with the numerical results of this GPU-based CFD solver.
Altair and the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) have announced the finalists for the 2018 Altair Enlighten award, which recognises organisations driving innovation in vehicle lightweighting
Automotive radars are becoming standard equipment on vehicles, with several antenna architectures being used to cover the different safety functions in complex chassis environments and where the side effects become more significant on radar performance. In this white paper we discuss the process of the automotive radar integration.
