Customer Highlight

Trek: Designs and Experience

“These athletes push the bikes well past the average consumer and are hyper-sensitive to variations in stiffness and where that stiffness is within the bike. They also push for faster,
lighter, and better ride quality so they can excel and win races which, in turn, pushes us to design faster and lighter bikes without compromising strength, durability, and ride quality”

As part of the ‘digital to physical’ product lifecycle, TriMech Enterprise specialise and manage several mechanisms to ensure products are produced to the highest quality using simulation. This includes looking at the following:

  • Vehicle Dynamics: Wheeled Vehicles and Tracked Vehicles 
  • Vehicle Performance: Off Highway 
  • Multibody Dynamics: NVH/Engine Dynamics, DEM Co-Simulation 
  • Load Development: DEM Co-Simulation 
  • Rollover Crash Simulation: DEM Co-Simulation 
  • Tire Simulation: Structural Analysis 

 

Introduction to TriMech Enterprise

Load Development and Correlation

Further to the above, load development and correlation is also taken into account. This includes precision work on the following areas:

  • MBD to Test Correlation: Using an advanced MBD model with proprietary contact method between flex-body structures, using a load cycle to drive fatigue analysis and launching parameter correlation driven via process automation. The automation process can then used to drive simulation for design iterations
  • Real Time Load Development
Crash Simulation

Crashworthiness testing is becoming more and more dependent on crash simulations. Crash test standards have tightened over the past ten years, demanding a higher standard of performance to receive a satisfactory crash safety rating. Crashworthiness relies on the construction of load-carrying structures and the deformation of the structural components which would absorb the crash energy efficiently. Therefore, the crashworthiness design should be started from the early concept design phase. This includes looking at seat pull tests and front/side impact.

Electromagnetic Simulation

Electromagnetic simulation software enables engineers to investigate the electromagnetic properties of components or whole systems efficiently. Electromagnetic (EM) systems often pose multiscale challenges, such as very wide frequency ranges and electrically large structures with very fine detail. All High and Low Frequency applications are addressed using CST Studio Suite which is a key part of the wider ecosystem and includes links to many other simulation and design tools. The CST Studio Suite covers all EM ranges from Static to THz, with single user interface and wide range of frequency and best-in-class Time Domain solvers.

Durability Analysis

The durability process as part of the offering allows users to design their elements, run thorough stress tests, define any failure criteria and then re-design to suit needs. This process enables users to look at the complete duty cycle, not just the most severe possible events. This is done via a complete and accurate material database, replying on sophisticated fatigue algorithms such as multi-axial strain life methods, critical plane searching and non-proportional loading.

Computational Fluid Dynamics

SIMULIA’s Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation offering allows users to engineer products ensuring accurate real world performance predictions with fast turnaround speeds and the ability to solve a vast array of challenges spanning industries and application use cases.

XFlow is a particle-based Lattice Boltzmann technology solver which offers multiphase and moving parts modeling capabilities specially focused on lubrication workflows such as gearboxes and electric motor drives.

Process Automation and Optimization

To increase the value of simulation investment, the Automation discipline includes capabilities to allow users to develop, store, manage, deploy, share, and replay standard methods for simulation-driven design. Use of standardized methods reduces error, increases efficiency, and maximizes simulation value.

The Optimization discipline provides capabilities to automatically run and re-run simulation methods with varying parameters allowing design space exploration and optimization using Isight technology. Optimal design points can be discovered and chosen to reduce weight and cost and increase durability, strength, and lifespan.
