Digitalisation & Simulation

Design and simulation are key elements in the development of innovations in mechanics. This area, which is very cross-cutting, covers most of Cetim’s business divisions. The main challenges lie at two levels:

  • Integrate simulation and optimization into the design process
  • Couple simulation and testing to develop and validate numeric models, define and customize tests to characterize materials, the behaviour of components and equipments, and qualifying their performance

Product modelling and simulation lead to virtual optimization of solutions before physical implementation. Therefore, this trend is towards a more efficient way of design, taking into account the prediction of fatigue life and optimizing safety coefficients in a reliable approach. The main objective is to achieve much shorter development times.
