With the 3DEXPERIENCE and MODSIM teams can deliver on ambitious time-to-market schedules
Competition in the electric vehicle (EV) market is intensifying, with production expected to increase tenfold from 2021 to 2028. To bring new designs to market swiftly, manufacturers must significantly cut development time while addressing the shortage of EV expertise. Companies can achieve this with a holistic approach, known as MODSIM.
MODSIM is the combining of CATIA’s MODeling capabilities with SIMULIA’s SIMulation functionality for engineering-driven design. The Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE® platform provides an integrated environment that supports continuous connectivity during development.
Modeling and Simulation to MODSIM
- 3DEXPERIENCE® platform
- PLM for everyone/everywhere
- Full tracebility
- Lean Teams | Collaboration
- Process Automation & Customization
- Full CAD/CAE Associativity
- Requirements Management
- Seamless Design & Engineering Processes
- Reuse of Data and Processes
The MODSIM approach integrates modeling and simulation on a common data model. This empowers engineering teams to collaborate and streamline e-drive development.
This ‘unification‘ democratizes vehicle development by:
- Reducing the need for large teams, allowing manufacturers to rely on lean development groups.
- Minimizing the requirement for physical prototypes, decreasing dependence on scarce materials.
- Shortening development time from about 60 months to just 24 months.
Electric-Drive Engineering using MODSIM
Create a new electric drive variant from an existing design to meet performance targets more quickly. Any design updates to the model will automatically refresh the simulation model.
Meet Development Milestones
As global EV competition intensifies, manufacturers must rapidly launch new models. The 3DEXPERIENCE platform uses the MODSIM approach to integrate modeling and simulation, empowering teams throughout the design cycle.
By testing designs in a virtual twin connected to all vehicle models, manufacturers can ensure they meet KPIs early. This method balances performance targets, accelerates e-drive innovation, and enables efficient, right-first-time designs, helping teams meet development milestones.
