Bachelor Graduation Assignment: Evaluate possible applications for ModeFrontier in PACCAR

Job description

The CAE-engines department is responsible for creation and validation of models that can describe and predict the behaviour of the new and current engines. Due to more increasing requirements on emissions modern diesel engines have become complex systems. These emission legislations cause the need to add additional sub-systems to the base engine. All of these systems and sub-systems with pipes, lines and wiring need to be mounted to the base engine. Some of these currently use brackets or studs. To ensure the lifetime performance of the engine all these systems and subsystems need to be checked on their endurance life.
Translating and transferring data from one software environment to another is very common during the analysis stage of an engine development project. For instance a linear dynamic model to study engine vibrations often derive force input from a dynamic simulation translated to frequency space via FFTs. modeFrontier presents a ca...
