A ground vibration test (GVT) aims to characterize an aircraft’s structural resonances experimentally. This is an important step in the aircraft certification process. It helps validate the models used for aeroelastic prediction and verify that no flutter occurs within the flight envelope. Challenges in aircraft instrumentation during GVT Instrumenting the aircraft for this test can
It’s St. Patrick’s Day. And probably a St. Patrick’s Day like no other. Pubs around the globe are closed, bartenders are stuck at home, beer lovers forced to have their pint in isolation, the Irish folk is forced to celebrate without their mates. The perfect pour Now, there’s not much we all can do about
Perseverance: what’s the weather on Mars? On February 18, we witnessed the amazing feats that scientists and engineers can achieve with Perseverance Mars rover’s perfect landing. I was watching the landing on a video feed from NASA with my seven-year-olds. They sat glued to the TV listening to the commentator giving them updates on what
Smooth sailing with the next generation of yachts The marine industry is undergoing major changes impacting the design, engineering, and manufacturing of all types of seagoing vessels. For instance, the class ranges of next-generation yachts and pleasure boats are growing, becoming more complex. Demand for more fuel-efficient models, longer range, and higher performance is increasing.
Tighter timeframes, tougher requirements, less stress? The argument for 1D-3D co-simulation This blog post was co-written with Nick Amato, Manager of CFD Applications, Simcenter Engineering at Siemens Digital Industries Software. For today’s engineers, the ability to leverage multiple tools is essential to remaining competitive. Tightening regulations and increasing prototype costs mean that predictive analysis is
With autonomous technology on the rise, how can automakers face the transformation? There is a clear trend in the market for driverless automotive systems: the direction is upwards. Autonomous vehicle (AVs) sales are expected to rise sharply after 2030, with an estimated $7T market worth by 2050. Autonomous technology is becoming a reality, but the automotive industry
The art of engineering light Two years ago, I watched a documentary about “Minimalism.” There were compelling reasons in the documentary to no longer own so many things. People were talking on camera about how it made them feel free, how it gave them back focus, how they decluttered their whole life, along with the stuff
Propeller Simulation drives your design work forward Numerical simulation has been widely accepted as a tool to gain insight into the physical phenomena and understand how to improve your design, especially when dealing with propellers. Propeller simulation in the hands of design engineers can help increase the reliability of designs. https://videos.mentor-cdn.com/mgc/videos/5400/923c3026-c092-49ae-880b-ac59ba01dbb7-en-US-video.mp4 Results of flow
Tire modeling for functional safety-compliant vehicles MF-Tyre/MF-Swift is now classified according to ISO26262, making the tool suitable for developing functional safety compliant vehicles. Further, release 2021.1 brings increased fidelity in steering simulations and safe exchange of tire model parameters. MF-Tyre/MF-Swift ISO 26262 qualification, supporting the development of safety compliant vehicles On the road towards autonomous
Virtual assessment of e-powertrains using the Hybrid Optimization Tool Diversity of vehicle architectures After decades of focusing on optimizing internal combustion engines and ensuring their exhaust after-treatment systems pass regular updates of the emissions regulations, the transport industry is going through dramatic changes. Challenged by implementing new standards presenting a major turning point on CO2
