Discover how experts from ESTECO and AVL benefit from coupling ESTECO modeFRONTIER and AVL CRUISE™ M Electrochemistry Battery Model. Designing the best lithium-ion battery cell depends on many factors from materials design to manufacturing and more. In this webinar, ESTECO and AVL demonstrate how to address this challenge by combining the ESTECO Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) technology with AVL multi-physics system simulation tools. Among other factors, the impact of manufacturing tolerances on cell performance is a crucial aspect to consider when designing a lithium-ion battery. The Robust Design and Reliability capabilities within ESTECO modeFRONTIER are able to take these uncertainties into account and manage them effectively from the early stages of product development. During the webinar, experts from ESTECO and AVL will highlight the benefits of coupling ESTECO modeFRONTIER and AVL CRUISE™ M Electrochemistry Battery Model.

This webinar presents how modeFRONTIER robust and reliability-based optimization capabilities can be applied to avoid opting for designs that perform well on paper, but under-perform in real life. Danilo Di Stefano (Product Manager) and Alberto Clarich (Technical Manager) introduce the Quality Engineering module available in modeFRONTIER. They present how robust and reliability-based optimization can be applied to leave out designs that perform well on paper, but under-perform in real life. Quality Engineering allows to perform a robust analysis in those cases where the variable is affected by a non-probabilistic deviation, or noise. Agenda: ROBUST DESIGN & RELIABILITY - Manage uncertainties with ESTECO technology QUALITY ENGINEERING - A new Robust Design method available in modeFRONTIER modeFRONTIER PLANNER - A modular interface to set-up design exploration, optimization and robust design campaigns easier

This webinar presents a methodical way of optimization of Kinematics and Compliances (K&C) performance by linking the models developed in Adams Car with modeFRONTIER for end to end process automation and numerical optimization. Experts from ESTECO and MSC Software explain vehicle suspension systems which are made up of many components including springs, dampers, bushings, hardpoints, etc. Each of these components plays a critical role in Kinematics and Compliances (K&C) of suspension systems. Manually evaluating K&C of a system is also a tedious task considering multiple number of events that must be considered i.e. parallel wheel travel, roll, etc. Thanks to ESTECO's design optimization and simulation process integration and automation technologies, the coupling of Adams Car and modeFRONTIER accelerate and ease the process, leading to an optimal combination of these parameters which results in the desired K&C results for all events.
