Structural calculations

We use Finite Element Methods (FEM) and other innovative methods of calculation to ensure an efficient product development process.

This work focuses on:

• the calculation for the entire vehicle
• pedestrian and occupant protection
• system and component development, e.g. chassis and gearbox

We use both elastic and plastic material models for this. Even highly non-linear contact calculations such as examining screw connections pose no problem for us. We provide strength tests and service life inspections in accordance with our customers' design guidelines or official bodies of rules such as the FKM guideline, AD data sheets, DIN, Eurocode etc.

The quality of our services in this area is high thanks to both our experienced employees and powerful software tools such as ANSYS, ABAQUS, MARC/MENTAT, Nastran/Patran, Radioss, LS-Dyna, Pam-Crash.
