Durability Analysis | Application Of Durability Analysis In Automotive, Aerospace & Wind Turbines.
Automotive:
- Design more reliable transmissions, drivelines and axles.
- View the whole gearbox as an interacting and flexible system.
- Predict gear, bearing and shaft life-times in the design concept phase.
- Accurately and efficiently compare complex gearbox arrangements or concepts such as AMT, DCT, Hybrid and CVT.
- Reduce gearbox weight by using component strength.
- Minimize noise and vibration by influencing the transmission. error.
- Identify the weak points in the whole system under realistic load conditions.
- Consider the impact of manufacturing tolerances in the concept design phase.
- Improve the bearing choice by unique accurate prediction of bearing behavior.
- Interact with dynamic solutions for your full vehicle design.
- Predict the affects of generators/e-engines on the gears and its components in your hybrid system.
Wind turbine:
- Understand and benchmark operating load and extreme load scenarios.
- Design gearboxes to meet life-time targets.
- View the gearbox as one complete system, without the need for sectioning and sectional boundary conditions.
- Analyze the behavior of complex planetary systems within the whole system.
- Accurately predict loads, deflections and interactions of all components.
- Calculate detailed bearing behavior to identify excessive loads.
- Direct loads or reduce misalignment to improve the system quality.
- Predict load sharing in the fully flexible system instead of assuming load sharing factors.
- Reduce weight and cost without reducing component lifetime.
- Minimize noise pollution caused by transmission error.
Aerospace:
- Improve reliability for critical parts.
- Reduce gearbox weigh.t
- Predict bearing behavior under extreme load and climate conditions.
- Optimize gearbox size.
Off-highway:
- Design heavy duty transmissions.
- Accurately represent multi-gear mesh situations.
- Optimize gearbox weight without compromising durability.
- Predict system behavior under misuse conditions.
- Compare different lubrication situations.
- Precisely define micro-geometries to avoid edge-loading of teeth under extreme load conditions.
- Consider split-torque system load.
- Design for improved reliability in process machinery, material handling, power take offs, speed reducers and production line equipment.
- Improve accuracy of high precision machinery by understanding and predicting system and component deflections.
- Reduce failures in gears and bearings due to precise prediction of misalignments.
- Optimize weight and size of power tools, food processors, washing machines, printers and photocopiers.
- Improve product quality by reducing unwanted deflections.
- Predict changes of working accuracy over a product’s life.
- Design casings that fulfill the requests for look and function simultaneously without wasting material.
- Consider new materials for new or existing product concepts.
- Create technical documentation for certification.
