Body-In-White Design for a Six-Passenger Sports Car Architecture: Maximizing Body Stiffness and Meeting Strength Requirements Using HyperWorks
The Deep Orange Program has partnered with Altair to apply advanced computational simulation methods to their vehicle designs. Altair-sponsored internships and fellowships have enhanced student learning through
providing webinar-based and on-sight instruction of Altair HyperWorks simulation technologies. An example of these simulation-based design applications is the CUICAR Deep Orange 3 Program,the third generation vehicle prototype designed and engineered by the Clemson engineering graduate students. Deep Orange 3 features a load-bearing structure based
on innovative sheet-folding technology and a unique 3+3 seating configuration package in a sports car architecture. The following describes this design and summarizes the application of Altair HyperWorks to meet the
necessary engineering structural performance requirements for the underlying body structure.

QinetiQ Keeps the Army’s Kiowa Copter Flying Lighter and Longer Through HyperWorks Optimization
A large proportion of Army aircraft are legacy platforms. Program managers of these aircraft are challenged to integrate new technology into these older platforms to enable them to meet the constantly expanding demands of today’s missions. These new devices and systems, however, often add weight to the vehicle or otherwise impact mission profiles. To sustain aircraft performance, weight reduction methods need to be adopted for aircraft components if technology insertions are going to continue.

Altair Enables BorgWarner to Automate Process for Determining Combined Impact of Temperature and Mechanical Stress on Turbochargers
Inherently, turbochargers are adversely impacted by hot exhaust gases. This heat impacts the material strength of the turbocharger housings, resulting in degraded performance and the potential creeping or rubbing of turbine wheels. When extreme fluctuations occur, the turbocharger can suffer from premature thermal-fatigue resulting in cracking.

HyperWorks Improves Development Processes in Automotive Industry
In 2008 PWO Germany (Progress-Werk Oberkirch AG) had to develop and produce a new steel made automotive cross car beam (CCB) for the dash board of a new car. PWO received the CAD model, the design space definition and other pre-defined standards of the component from the customer and developed and produced the fitting cross beam based on this information. PWO used the HyperWorks Suite to develop the component. HyperMesh was used to transfer the CAD model into a FEA model, which was then used to run dedicated analysis and simulation tasks. To fulfill the requirements for crash and modal analysis, the company used OptiStruct to optimize the component, RADIOSS and other external solver to run the calculations and HyperView for the post processing. HyperForm was used to check the production feasibility of the individual components and for metal forming simulation tasks. It was important for PWO to have a software suite available that could cover all simulation tasks within one graphical user interface and licensing system.

HyperMesh and HyperView customization for thermal analysis of engine systems
This was a 2010 Americas HTC Presentation given by Emil Chouinard from GE Aviation. GE Aircraft Engines has many NPI (new product initiative) programs that rely on accurate and timely thermal analysis, as temperatures are critical to accurate estimates of hardware life. HyperMesh and HyperView have been customized as the pre and post processing tools, respectively, for thermal analysis of engine systems. The single database with relational data management greatly reduces modeling errors and results in Engineers being able to focus on the physics of the problem instead of data management.

ultimately MAHLE Powertrain wished to bring the process back in-house to maintain control
and reduce external expenditure. To achieve this a new pre and post-processing solution was
needed. HyperWorks was selected as the new platform as it afforded the required increase in
productivity through its automatic mesh creation and batch processes.

HyperView Automation for Post-Processing Cell Phone Drop Simulations
The cell phone design cycle within Motorola has matured to the extent that it is standard operating procedure to analyze several concepts of a specific model before physical parts are ever made. With the use of HyperWorks tools and the speed of current compute systems, pre-processing and number-crunching are no longer the bottlenecks in analyzing full assemblies during drop situations. The most time-consuming part of the analysis cycle for drop simulations has become post-processing. It is common in the analysis cycle to look at the results of 10 or more drop orientations for each concept. Each cell phone assembly is large enough that it manually takes a half- to a full day — depending on the drop orientation — to look at all the parts of interest. By teaming with Altair, HyperView has been customized to automatically produce a web-based report for a drop orientation in about 45 minutes. The report can be accessed by any member of the design team and provides a much quicker method for focusing on the critical components that
need attention.
