Simulating Crashworthiness with Life-Like Visualizations

simulia-Simulating Crashworthiness

Automotive manufacturers must design for several factors, but paramount among these is occupant safety. Ideally, a vehicle would go for its entire lifespan without ever experiencing a crash, but realistically, accidents happen. If a car is designed for optimal crashworthiness, however, its occupants are much more likely to walk away from the accident unharmed. Over […]

Additive Manufacturing Simulations: Any Machine, Any Process, Any Material

simulia

Additive manufacturing simulations are key in assessing a finished part’s quality. The physics behind the manufacturing process can be accurately recreated in software platforms enabling end to end digitalization – predicting residual stresses, voids, cracks, and so on, factors which will be crucial in the service life of a part.  In an article by SIMULIA‘s Subham […]

Future Outlook: Taking Urban Traffic to the Skies

  By the end of this century some 80 to 90 percent of the people on this planet will be living in cities, according to a report issued by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs. The current world population of 7.6 billion is predicted to reach 8.6 billion by the year 2030, […]

Unlocking secrets of the world’s oldest computer

repost from : blogs.3ds.com   What would you guess to be the age of the world’s first computer?  50 years old? 100?  Would you believe nearly 2000 years old? An ancient artifact, dubbed the Antikythera Mechanism, was discovered in 1900 by Greek sponge divers who located a shipwreck at the bottom of the Mediterranean sea, near the […]

Simulation of the Future: Autonomous Vehicles Part 2

3dds, autonomous vehicles

repost from : blogs.3ds.com   As vehicles are designed with higher levels of autonomy, simulation becomes more and more critical in order to anticipate the needs of drivers. An autonomous vehicle views the world differently than a human driver, and simulation gives engineers crucial information about how an AV will react to certain situations and […]

repost from : blogs.3ds.com   Engineers are using sophisticated models to clean plastic debris from oceans, optimize airflow in smog-filled cities, and make vehicles lighter and more efficient. This article was produced for Dassault Systèmes by Scientific American Custom Media, a division separate from the magazine’s board of editors.   The Great Pacific Garbage Patch will […]

What is Industry Renaissance?

repost from : blogs.3ds.com What is Industry Renaissance?  It’s a profound societal transformation on a scale that has not been seen since the great European Renaissance. One of the most significant advances during that time was the introduction of Gutenberg’s printing press.  Why?  Because it allowed for the rapid production of books, making the knowledge available to a much wider audience.  Today, the new book is […]

Can we make electronics energy self-sufficient?

Repost from blogs.3ds.com It’s estimated that there will be more than 50 billion connected objects in 2020. That’s a lot of devices to power! What if we harnessed the photovoltaic energy that is widely available on Earth to make our electronics energy self-sufficient?  That is the idea of Dracula Technologies, a startup is developing a disruptive printable light energy. Dracula Technologies’ vision […]
