Aerospace & Defense
Reducing time to market plays an important role especially in aerospace applications. Due to safety reasons and high costs involved in the production of prototypes sophisticated simulation solutions are required. The development of new and efficient aircrafts is based on highly integrated hybrid systems interacting complexly. SimulationX supports the analysis and definition of requirements, the design of system architectures as well as the definition and setting of system functions.
Fields of Application
- Physical modeling of subsystems with mechanical, hydraulic, electrical and thermal SimulationX model element types
- Development of new control concepts for landing flap actuation systems (PCUs)
- Examination of innovative system concepts of the elevator units and primary equipment
- Simulation-aided system optimization for start, driving, positioning and performance behavior to identify possible savings
- Steady-state, transient and stability analysis of complex hydraulic systems for different flight phases and states (normal mode, down-time modes)
- Evaluation of combined actuating systems with the aim to reduce complexity, power requirements and mass
- Design of chassis components and systems like traction brake, wheel steering and operating mechanisms to retract and extend the landing gears
- Vibration analysis to avoid noises and highly dynamic loads
