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.
MdynamiX and dSPACE have expanded their collaboration between the two companies focusing on the development and testing of electric steering systems
Robert Roe looks at advances in automotive simulation
Robert Roe looks at developments in crash testing simulation – including larger, more intricate simulations, the use of optimisation software, and the development of new methodologies through collaboration between ISVs, commercial companies, and research organisations
As not only the HPC industry but the larger computing ecosystem tries to overcome the slowdown and eventual end of transistor scaling described by Moore’s Law, scientists and researchers are implementing programmes that will define the technologies and new materials needed to supplement, or repla
Architectural specialisation is one option to continue to improve performance beyond the limits imposed by the slow down in Moore’s Law.
As the complexity of both HPC hardware and the challenges that scientists are trying to solve using HPC systems increases, ensuring a system is utilised efficiently is necessary to deliver a computing service with value for money and a high research output.
With data rates increasing and more complex challenges arising in life sciences, Panasas’ Jim Donovan and Dale Brantly discuss the benefits of using HPC for these workloads
