Tutor

Description

The safety requirements imposed by the automotive market and related regulations are increasingly stringent and difficult to achieve, practically impossible without adequate simulation. Furthermore, car manufacturers are increasingly delegating the design of these components to their suppliers, requesting the numerical models used to integrate them into biomechanical models. This course aims to teach how to use simulation for the development of these components starting from the basics and touching on the more complex aspects such as the use of pre-simulations to apply the deformations and the tensional state of the seat data due to the presence of the dummies.

Target Audience

CAE automotive analysts.

Pre-requisites

Knowledge of explicit dynamic simulations.
