From the First Planning Idea to a Functional, Virtual Prototype

Our Technical Calculation ensures that functional requirements for individual vehicle modules are fulfilled all the way through the whole vehicle, prior even to construction of the first prototype.
Based on the DMU synchronization products, all relevant functions, such as vehicle safety, acoustics, aerodynamics, operational stability, rigidity, are tested virtually. Results from our Technical Calculation enable us to define ideal solution suggestions for the construction and the subsequent practical application to the prototype.
Today's hardware infrastructure consisting of several computer clusters allows us to provide calculation results within a very limited amount of time. Furthermore, the team constantly works on optimizing the internal process times by programming their software tools accordingly. By working closely with the EDAG Testing Division, intensive validations are preformed to optimize simulation methods and explore new subject areas. This includes close cooperation with the EDAG Polymer Service (Materials Laboratory), the department responsible for establishing current material data for simulation.

Technical Calculation: A vital success factor in validating all functional requirements within a limited amount of time.
