Strict fitting completed in a short time! Introducing a case of multi-purpose optimization.

We would like to introduce a case where automatic fitting of a one-dimensional engine analysis tool was performed using our "modeFRONTIER." We set design variables for parts that could not be accurately read from 2D drawings into 3D shapes and parameters that are difficult to measure in experiments (a total of 14 variables). We established two objective functions: one for minimizing the squared difference between measured values and calculated values, and another for expressing variability in terms of standard deviation, both of which were minimized in a multi-objective optimization. As a result, a fitting that would be difficult to achieve with experience alone was completed in a short time. 【Case Study】 ■ Software Used: modeFRONTIER, GT-POWER ■ Challenge: Fitting between measured values and calculated values ■ Method: Executed multi-objective optimization with a total of two objective functions ■ Result: Precise fitting was completed in a short time *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

[Case Study] Robust Optimization of ABS Control Parameters

[Case Study] Robust Optimization of ABS Control Parameters

We will introduce examples that have achieved the minimization of braking distance and lateral sway!

We will introduce a case study where the automotive vehicle motion simulation tool "CarSim" was used to optimize ABS control parameters. The ground contact conditions are a very important factor, and the friction coefficient (μ) between the tire and the road surface has many uncertainties due to road conditions. Therefore, it is desirable to select parameters that are as robust as possible against the μ value in response to the requirement of reducing braking distance. Additionally, it is important to ensure straight-line stability during sudden braking on uneven μ roads, which necessitates optimization that considers the need to minimize both braking distance and lateral deviation. By using the multi-objective robust optimization function of "modeFRONTIER," we were able to explore ABS control parameters that excel in straight-line stability and braking performance. [Case Study] - Software Used: modeFRONTIER, CarSim, MATLAB/Simulink - Challenge: Minimize both braking distance and lateral deviation - Result: Successfully explored ABS control parameters that excel in straight-line stability and braking performance *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.

Introduction of a case where automatic exploration of the optimal shape for the chassis part of a vehicle was achieved!

We would like to introduce a case study from FIAT, where our "modeFRONTIER" is applied to optimize the shape of the chassis of vehicles. By using material properties and dimensions as design variables, we are exploring designs that maintain energy absorption rates during collisions while being lightweight. However, applying collision phenomenon simulations to automated exploration calculations was burdensome, so we first simulated 90 designs using a Latin hypercube method with simulation tools. Based on the results obtained, we generated a response surface and applied the approximation function as a virtual solver to automatically search for the optimal solution. [Case Study] ■ Software Used: modeFRONTIER, MSC.Nastran, Raddioss ■ Objective: To explore lightweight designs that maintain energy absorption rates during collisions ■ Challenge: High computational load for applying collision phenomenon simulations to automated exploration calculations ■ Methodology - Simulated 90 designs using a simulation tool with the Latin hypercube method - Generated a response surface - Applied the approximation function as a virtual solver ■ Result: Achieved automatic exploration of the optimal solution *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.

[Case Study] Optimization of Refrigerator Shape by Electrolux

[Case Study] Optimization of Refrigerator Shape by Electrolux

Introducing a case study that utilizes multidimensional display chart features for optimizing refrigerator shapes!

We would like to introduce a case study from Electrolux that applies our "modeFRONTIER" to the optimization of refrigerator shapes. When designing the performance of a refrigerator, factors such as the thickness of the insulation, the shape, position, and size of the evaporator are considered. Additionally, it is necessary to optimize the temperature distribution and flow velocity distribution inside the refrigerator while minimizing power consumption as much as possible. By using our "STAR-CD" and "modeFRONTIER," it is possible to narrow down suitable shape candidates in light of these trade-off relationships. When there are three or more objective functions, the multidimensional display chart of "modeFRONTIER" proves effective. [Case Study] ■ Software Used: modeFRONTIER ■ Objective: Narrow down candidates for optimal shapes ■ Effect: Compare preferred solutions using the multidimensional display chart *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.

[Case Study] System Identification of Catalyst and Air-Fuel Ratio Sensor Model

[Case Study] System Identification of Catalyst and Air-Fuel Ratio Sensor Model

We will introduce a case where the fitting parameters for all 6 cases were identified!

This is an example of fitting the actual measured values of the O2 sensor signal and the output values of the air-fuel ratio sensor model using "MATLAB/Simulink" and "modeFRONTIER." In this case, we explore common fitting parameters (eight parameters for the three-way catalyst model and the O2 sensor model) across six cases. The fitting degree is expressed by the correlation coefficient (R), and the objective function is set to maximize the six correlation coefficients. Additionally, since the matching of the rising edge waveform is important, we impose a constraint on the difference in rising times between the measured values and the model output values. By using the multi-objective optimization algorithm of "modeFRONTIER," the identification of fitting parameters for all six cases was completed in a short time. 【Example】 ■ Software used: modeFRONTIER, MATLAB/Simulink ■ Objective: Fitting the actual measured values of the O2 sensor signal and the output values of the air-fuel ratio sensor model ■ Result: The identification of fitting parameters for all six cases was completed in a short time. *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.

[Case Study] Optimization of Defroster Shape

[Case Study] Optimization of Defroster Shape

Introducing a case of optimizing the shape of the defroster nozzle!

We would like to introduce a case where we applied our "modeFRONTIER" to optimize the shape of the defroster nozzle. The air conditioning in a vehicle's cabin plays a role in ensuring passenger comfort and visibility, and fluid analysis allows for the prediction of flow and temperature distribution due to warm and cool air. Regarding visibility, the goal is to eliminate fogging on the front and side windshields, for which the design of the defroster nozzle is crucial. By investigating and predicting how the flow ejected from the defroster nozzle will create a temperature distribution along the windshield surface, we can optimize the shape of the defroster while considering the fog removal pattern. [Case Study] ■ Software Used: modeFRONTIER, ANSYS CFX ■ Objective: Ensuring passenger comfort and visibility through vehicle cabin air conditioning ■ Challenge: Optimization of the defroster nozzle shape ■ Result: Achieved shape optimization considering the fog removal pattern *For more details, please refer to the external link or feel free to contact us.
