Hanau, Fair / April 16, 2024 - April 17, 2024

Automotive CAE Grand Challenge

We will be represented at the booth of our sales partner scapos AG (Booth 13).

Over the past 30 years, computer simulation has become an indispensable tool in automotive development. Despite significant advances in simulation technology and impressive results in industrial applications, a number of challenges remain. The automotive CAE Grand Challenge promotes the exchange between companies, science, and software development in order to solve these challenges.

Our colleague Dr. Jörg Kuhnert from the department »Transport Processes« will be on site at the booth of our sales partner scapos AG. There he will inform about our software tool MESHFREE.

In addition, colleagues from the department »Flow and Material Simulation« will be on site and give two presentations:

Dr. Hannes Grimm-Strele, Dr. Heiko Andrä, Dr. Matthias Kabel – Variable Material Characterization of FRPs and their Recyclates from Combined Test and Simulation Data
Dr. Jochen Zausch – The Digital Battery: Advanced Physical Simulation Models for Cell Development and Characterization

MESHFREE in the Automotive Industry

Problems in the automotive industry have been the focus of the development of our software MESHFREE for years. With simulation in the early stages of design, problems can be avoided and design aspects optimized long before the first expensive prototype is built.

MESHFREE successfully simulates a wide range of automotive applications, such as water crossing and water management, fuel filling and sloshing, interaction with soil and sand during a crash, and transmission components. See more in the video:
