The document discusses the optimization of rear twist beam (RTB) designs for vehicle suspensions. It describes Gestamp's process of using optimization software to design RTBs that meet requirements for roll stiffness, roll steer, durability, packaging space, and mass. The process eliminates initial trial and error CAD work. It then focuses on optimizing the reinforcer length, torsion element gauge, and local edge shapes to minimize stress and mass while satisfying the rollover and fatigue targets. The optimized design process allows Gestamp to quickly develop competitive low-cost, low-mass RTB designs.

Structural Analysis of Ladder Chassis Frame for Jeep Using Ansys IJMER
Automotive chassis frame is an important part of an automobile. The automotive chassis
frame is the structural backbone of any vehicle. The main function of chassis frame is to support the
body, different parts of an automobile and topayload placed upon it.The chassis frame has to withstand
the stresses developed as well as deformation occurs in it and to withstand the shock, twist vibration
and other stresses. Its principle function is to carry the maximum load for all designed operating
condition safelythat should be within a limit. On chassis, frame maximum shear stress and deflection
under maximum load are important criteria for design andanalysis. In these projects, we
havecalculated the von mises stress and shear stress for the chassis frame and the finite element
analysis has been donefor the validation on the chassis frame model of jeep. We have taken certain
material as Mild sheet steel, aluminium alloy and titanium alloy for the rectangular hollow box type to
design chassis frame of jeep.
Software used in this project, CATIA V5-[Product 1] for design purpose and ANSYS 14 is used for
analysis.

Development of body structure concepts for electric vehicles using the topolo...Altair
By the strict discussions regarding energy saving and the goal to reduce CO2, there is a keen demand for light designed automotive structures and the development of electric vehicles. To achieve these goals, a comprehensive method for urban vehicle concepts with electric powertrain and their necessary vehicle structures is presented. The dimensions and packaging of the presented vehicle is based on demands of a future urban vehicle with space for four occupants including baggage, steerable front system wheels and a rear axle including an electric powertrain. In the geometric design phase of the method the vehicle design space is analyzed for global load path with the help of topology optimization (OptiStruct). The load paths are then clustered into different shapes. Concepts for new body in white structures are derived from the results.

Experimental verification and finite element analysis of a sliding door syste...Altair
A sliding door system is used in commercial vehicles and passenger cars to allow a larger unobstructed access to the interior for loading and unloading. The movement of a sliding door on vehicle body is ensured by mechanisms and tracks having special cross-section which is manufactured by rollforming and strech bending process. There are three tracks and three mechanisms which are called upper, central and lower on a sliding door system. There are static requirements as strenght on different directions, rigidity for mechanisms, door drop off, door sag; dynamic requirements as high energy slam opening-closing and durability requirement to validate these products. In addition, there is a kinematic requirement to find out force values from door handle during manuel operating. In this study, finite element analysis and physical test results which are realized for sliding door systems will be shared comparatively.

Topology optimization to guide the architecture of a BIW structure, challenge...Altair
For automotive industry, lightweight design is one of the five key factors among engine enhancement, aerodynamics, rolling resistance and energy management to overcome challenges due to environmental regulations. Thanks to new developments, recent models weigh 140 kg to 200 kg lighter than their predecessors. But to achieve more ambitious objectives in vehicle weight, structural design optimization is necessary at all stages of the design process. This presentation shows how topology optimization could be used very early to guide the body-in-white design and reach the best compromises between the vehicle performance expectations and the architecture constraints. We first remind how applying topology optimization for sheet metal design remains difficult. Then we explain the conditions for a success. The complete optimization process is detailed from the computation model building phase to the optimization results and their complex conversion into a design made from stamped or folded parts. Finally we conclude with a short summary about the topology optimization method and highlight some remained issues.

This family did not pass the tests and a large investment had been made in tooling. The company did not want this investment to go to waste and assigned me the task to resolve the issue soon after hiring me. This is a brief outline of the changes made to improve the wheel such that all tests were passed. It should be noted that all work was done virtually and all tests were passes first time after tooling modifications.

Tubeless tires are designed in such a manner that the tire itself functions like a tube. The plies of the tire are similar whether it is a radial tire or a tubeless tire, but the difference is the presence of a inner lining layer that is made up of halogen butyl rubber such as chlorobutyl or bromobutyl rubber. This rubber has a special property of sealing any small puncture caused by a small nail or any other sharp object. This means that even if there is any mishap with a nail and a small puncture is caused by it, the tire seals the leakage itself by closing the leakage and the vehicle can cover distances up to 200 km without having to stop or getting the assistance of a mechanic to get the tire repaired.
Nonlinear static simulation of automotive bumper of a passenger car in low sp...eSAT Journals
Abstract Bumpers are important structural components of vehicles in terms of safety, static strength, and styling. This work describes various aspects of the nonlinear static FEA of vehicle front bumpers using the commercial software Ls-Dyna, and the correlation with physical tests. The basic concepts, procedures and techniques of nonlinear FEA are presented. The effects of various aspects of nonlinear simulations like numerical integration, contact parameters, non-conformance of the mesh and material law are studied. A nodally integrated element formulation for plates is proposed for analysis, and the formulation is implemented in Ls-Dyna using the UEL user subroutine. Numerical tests are carried out on the new element. Suggestions are proposed in simulation to improve the correlation of CAE results with physical test.

An engineer working for Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation Marine Systems (NGSC-MS) was given a project to improve their teams’ current NASTRAN results post-processing workflow by writing a script to automate the task. They reached out to Altair for collaboration and Altair engineers were able to quickly determine that Altair’s mathematical modeling environment – “Altair Compose” – would be the ideal solution due to its ability to read, manipulate, and write NASTRAN results. Also, the Open Matrix Language is a scripting language that is familiar to the engineering community. Given sample NASTRAN results and requirements Altair engineers provided a “template” script. The NGSC-MS team was able to quickly understand and modify the script to their goals. The custom results were then viewable in HyperView as a contour plot, which saved a considerable amount of time during post-processing and documentation workflows.
Designing for Sustainability: Altair's Customer StoryAltair
Bush Bohlman was required to perform the structural analysis and timber design for the British Columbia Institute of Technology, (BCIT), student plaza, a pedestrian and public transport user gateway for the institute. The structure needed to establish a strong campus identity with a biophilic design and demonstrable support for sustainable building practices while ensuring structural safety according to local design codes. The hybrid mass timber structure consists of a Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT) canopy, CLT columns, and steel columns. By using S-TIMBER, the engineers were able to simulate the complex two-way bending behavior of the cantilevering roof panels and asymmetrical column layout. Having the model in S-TIMBER allowed for changes to be analyzed and re-designed, without the need to manually design individual timber and steel elements. S-TIMBER's design reports presented the design calculations concisely, yet transparently, for faster and easier reviews.

The Team H2politO: vehicles for low consumption competitions using HyperWorks Altair
The Team H2politO is a group of students of the Politecnico di Torino. The student’s background and profiles are very diverse, everyone comes from a different discipline of engineering and together they compose a complete Team. The disciplines range from Automotive and Mechanical to Electronics, Aerospace, Energy, Mathematics, Computer Science, Mechatronics, Management, Cinema and Media and Industrial Design. The Team mission is to shape a new generation of engineers, leaders in their fields, who represent the educational excellence in regard of each of their competencies.
The results of Team passion and hard work are three low-energy consumption vehicles completely designed and made by the Team: IDRA - hydrogen powered prototype; XAM – bioethanol powered parallel hybrid urban concept; XAM 2.0 –EREV city vehicle.
The main goal is to take part and win in Shell Eco-marathon, a competition that every year involves more than one hundreds of students teams arriving from all over Europe. Especially we would like to spread the Shell Eco-marathon values through ours, combining the sustainable development with a vehicle that uses the least possible amount of energy.
H2politO is a different, innovative and somehow unique project, is not just a Team but something more: it is a new type of conceiving educational, professional and personal growth. Team members aim at being perceived as an experimental laboratory where competences, capabilities and potentialities of future’s engineers are fostered. Students strive to become not only solid and advanced technical experts but, equally important, down-to-earth managers having excellent communication, leadership and teamwork skills.
Practical and hands-on experiences are doubtlessly a complementary and enriching form of educational path where it is very important the use of simulation software like HyperWorks. Team members have a real opportunity to lead their educational path by building and crafting their own thesis. Final papers are indeed part of a cluster of thesis which combines all the technological and organizational areas of development H2politO has envisioned and embraced.
The Team believes in hard work as the basis of future success. Students crave for continuously improving and strive for exceeding expectations by nurturing the team spirit in order to create those synergies able to add value to individual performances and capabilities. As a consequence, passion and team-spirit are really the foundation of H2politO values.

Rotating machinery can be found in every industry: automotive, aerospace, energy, etc. The generated vibration environment is typically made of harmonic tones superimposed on background noise. Components mounted on rotating machinery must be designed to survive such mechanical environment over their entire service life. This presentation will concentrate on calculating the fatigue life from sine-on-random excitations using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). It is proposed to derive the statistical rainflow cycle histogram from a sine-on-random spectrum of stress or strain data and then use the appropriate material fatigue curve to obtain the estimated life. This new analysis is complementary to existing features such as SineDwell, SineSweep and (uni- or multi-axes) random PSD. It is part of extensive research work that includes the influence of sigma clipping or the effects of a high kurtosis.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
