The limits of computer-aided simulations are far from exhausted. At the Altair Technology Conference, the simulation specialist presented a variety of interesting applications with a focus on the automotive industry.

Altair has expanded its team with Amy Messano as Chief Marketing Officer and Ubaldo Rodriguez as Senior Vice President, Global Sales.

Altair and Co-Exhibitors APWORKS, M&H CNC Technik, and RSC Engineering to present highlights of Simulation-Driven Design processes with Altair Inspire™ platform for modern manufacturing methods.

With the acquisition of SIMSOLID by Altair, a new game-changing simulation technology for designers, design engineers, and simulation analysts will be enabled.

The case study of a wheel carrier shows that simulation as a design tool offers the potential to establish fast, flexible and cost-effective processes in product development. Thus, the casting industry could change significantly through the use of simulation.

The Application Builder available in COMSOL Multiphysics® is being used in universities worldwide to introduce students to multiphysics software solutions that better prepare them for the workforce. This offers considerable opportunities for the casting industry.

A vehicle with its weight reduced by more than 200 kg, a 3D printed standard metal component and other exciting lightweight concepts: Altair and the Center for Automotive Research announced the winners of the Enlighten Award.
