Master Heavy Equipment Complexity with Real-World Physics Simulation
Discover how Dana Advanced Engineering used Simcenter Amesim to design the Spicer PowerBoost Hydraulic-Hybrid System, achieving up to 40% fuel savings and cutting development time by 5x.
Rising market demands for electrification, smart capabilities, and autonomous operations are drastically multiplying heavy equipment design complexity. Relying on simulation strictly for late-stage physical validation leads to endless design iterations and costly prototyping loops. Allowing multidisciplinary, real-world physics simulation to drive design choices upfront helps OEMs predict true machine behavior, master complex component interactions, and certify systems faster.
What You’ll Learn Inside This eBook:
- Drive Design with Multiphysics: Why front-loading multidisciplinary physics simulation replaces manual trial-and-error prototyping with predictive, data-driven decisions.
- Optimize Electrification & Energy Use: How modeling hydraulic actuator forces, kinematics, and friction predicts energy consumption to maximize battery efficiency.
- Unify Disciplines via Digital Thread: How connecting CAD, CFD, 3D CAE, and discrete element methods across a centralized platform keeps global teams aligned.
- Combine Simulation and Testing: How aligning virtual physics models with test track data validates boundary conditions and streamlines sensor setup campaigns.
This eBook is Meant For: VPs of Engineering, Heads of Simulation, Chief Systems Engineers, Heavy Equipment R&D Directors, Product Development Leads, and Innovation Managers.
