Altair has announced the winners of the 8th Annual Altair Enlighten Awards. Presented jointly with the Center for Automotive Research, the competition acknowledges the world’s best initiatives to reduce vehicle weight and meet emissions targets, inspiring breakthrough advancements that push the industry towards a more sustainable future.

According to a survey by the German Foundry Industry (BDG), 57 % of the German companies surveyed fear supply bottlenecks for preliminary products, auxiliary materials and raw materials in the future. The industry's feedback: Many international companies are able to deliver, and to offer their services despite the corona crisis. Who else supplies? Get an overview here!

Altair provided EDAG Group with software at no charge for the development of a novel, crash-resistant aluminum alloy within the scope of a research project supported by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

Altair, a global technology provider of solutions for product development, high-performance computing and data analytics, is pleased to announce that entries are invited to the 2020 Altair Enlighten Awards. The 8^th Annual Enlighten Awards are presented jointly with the Center for Automotive Research (CAR).

For the seventh time, the technology company Altair once again presented the Enlighten Award to outstanding vehicle lightweighting solutions at the CAR Management Briefing Seminar 2019 in Traverse City (USA).

With the latest release of Altair Hyperworks, the simulation and AI driven product development platform, more solutions will be offered to designers and engineers to accelerate decision making and market introduction.

In order to be able to supply high-quality products, software must be constantly updated. Due to this three latest software releases are discussed in order to support the indian die casting market.

It's never too early for the right decisions: The use of simulation in the concept phase and in lightweight design has many advantages.

Modern lightweight design is particularly important when intelligent hybrid concepts have to fulfil several functions at the same time. Join the discussion at the "Lightweight Construction Summit" with a simultaneous english translation on 26 and 27 March 2019 in Würzburg, Germany.

Aluminum die casting is becoming increasingly important due to many new requirements such as electromobility. How can simulation support the structural component product development in a positive way?
