@THX Miba Battery Systems. VIRTUAL VEHICLE is proud to be a part of MORE+ project. 💥 Our tasks are project management, as well as conducting mechanical, 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 (𝗧𝗠), 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 (𝗧𝗥), 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗮𝗴𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 (𝗧𝗥-𝗣) testing to generate calibration and validation data. 🔥 Additionally, in collaboration with Technische Universität Graz, we will, for the first time, integrate fiber-Bragg-based measurements into TR and TR-P testing. 🔋 Another crucial task is the development of a reduced, combined multi-physical battery model. This model will be used to create a multi-objective optimization framework aimed at optimizing vehicle battery systems in terms of both cost and safety, with a particular focus on TR-P.

Given the fact that cast parts play an increasingly important role in modern car bodies, it is important to use adequate material models in crash simulations to properly predict deformation and failure. Great to have this session chaired by Bart Peeters Weem at the #CAE #GrandChallenge with presentations from Kenichiro Fukagawa, Andres-Amador Garcia Granada, Sirus Rafiee, Marian Bulla, Gernot Oberhofer, Jean Christophe Allain and Ovidi Casals.

It's not like attending the #zeroprototypes summit in person but still you can get a very good idea of how the automotive industry is getting closer to #zeroprototypes in their development processes, comfortably from your desk. I definitely recommend to spend some time looking at these insightful presentations.

🚗 Exploring tyre performance on real road surfaces: Catch a glimpse of our joint project with our partner the Institut für Kraftfahrzeuge (ika) - RWTH Aachen University! Ever wondered how your car tyres behave on diverse road surfaces? And how to test for this behavior? 🔍 In the following video, witness some behind-the-scenes action as we prepare the ika's mobile tyre test trailer (FaReP). Wondering why tyre testing matters? It is about understanding how tyres respond to different surfaces. This is pivotal for creating vehicles that deliver superior performance, safety, and comfort! 💡 Stay Tuned: Curious about what's next?
