This document explains, based on our company's implementation results and experience, the necessary considerations for threshold examination that inevitably arise when conducting predictive maintenance, as well as what indicators should be used when considering and implementing predictive maintenance. Additionally, we focus on the analysis of causal relationships with quality-related issues, which we have received many inquiries about in recent years, in conjunction with equipment maintenance. When building IoT and predictive maintenance systems, it is essential to start with a system that has a completion level of around 60 or 70 points, rather than aiming for a perfect 100-point system from the outset, and to gradually improve the system towards the desired state. This document introduces some of the essence of that approach.

In this article, we will introduce application examples that can be useful for product development using Simerics' CAE/CFD software. The water-flushing toilet that we commonly use involves various considerations in its design, including not only the cleaning power but also factors such as water splash and water conservation. To achieve this, it requires not only optimal shape ideas but also repeated trial and error regarding where and how much water to flow. However, conducting prototypes and experiments for toilets requires significant costs and time. With Simerics' CFD, high-performance free surface fluid analysis can be processed quickly through large-scale parallel computing, allowing for easy and rapid results. It also enables very detailed modeling, which can replicate conditions close to actual experiments. From these calculation results, we can accurately understand the flow of water, leading to significant reductions in labor and costs! There are many more reasons to use Simerics' CFD software.

CFD provides a way to shorten product development periods, reduce prototyping costs, and obtain detailed data that is difficult to measure through experiments. In this article, we will introduce application examples that can be useful for product development using Simerics' CAE/CFD software. Heat exchangers have various applications, including boilers, steam generators, and commonly in air conditioners, refrigerators, and automobile radiators. While it is essential to enhance heat transfer efficiency, there is also a demand for miniaturization, which requires various trials and errors in design. However, designing often requires significant costs and time spent on prototyping and experiments. In CFD simulations, computation time can become lengthy depending on the shape of the shell and the number of tubes, but with Simerics' CFD, high-performance thermal fluid analysis can be processed quickly through large-scale parallel computing, allowing for easy and rapid results.

CFD, which allows for the shortening of product development periods, reduction of prototyping costs, and acquisition of detailed data that is difficult to measure through experiments. In this article, we will introduce application examples that can be useful for product development using Simerics' CAE/CFD software. Check valves (non-return valves), which play an important role in preventing water hammer and regulating flow direction, are under constant research and development to enhance the durability of piping.

In this article, we will introduce application examples that can be useful for product development using Simerics' CAE/CFD software. To prevent a car from overheating, it is necessary to intake air into the engine room and cool various components, making the design of the grille shape and ventilation parts crucial. Additionally, the grille is not only important for cooling effectiveness but also serves as the car's "face," affecting its appearance. Despite being such an important aspect, designing it requires significant time and costs for prototyping and experiments. CFD simulations can also become large-scale, often leading to longer computation times.

This document introduces Weibull analysis. Weibull analysis is a method that uses the number of failures as input to determine the unreliability. Once the unreliability is known, the failure rate and reliability can also be determined. (Refer to the relationship between failure rate and reliability) To express the bias in the occurrence of failures, Weibull distribution is used in failure analysis. By using Weibull distribution, it has become possible to express the bias in the occurrence of failures, including the probability density of failure occurrence.

This document introduces the relationship between failure rate, reliability, unreliability, and failure probability density, among other reliability information. There is a close relationship between reliability, unreliability, failure probability density, and failure rate (which can be viewed from different perspectives as needed); knowing one allows you to understand the other indicators. When managing failures using CMMS/EAM, it is possible to aggregate the number of failures over time. If the number of failures over time is known, the time dependency of failure rate, reliability, and unreliability can be understood. Weibull analysis is a method of failure analysis that takes advantage of this characteristic.

In Europe, security evaluations are already being conducted in parallel with safety assessments, and one method for conducting security evaluations is the attack tree. The Attack Tree security threat analysis tool provided by Isograph (UK) is designed to assist in evaluating security vulnerabilities in software. For example, it allows for the following expressions: - A visual representation of how an attack can succeed - A probability distribution showing which attacks have the highest likelihood of success Furthermore, it can also represent indicators such as: - The method that is the lowest cost and has the highest probability of success for the attacker - The difficulty of executing the attack and whether special equipment is required Security assessments are directly related to the safety of vehicles. By referencing the probabilities of threats identified using the Attack Tree within the functional safety Fault Tree, it becomes possible to conduct evaluations that consider both safety and threats.

◆Do you have any of the following concerns?◆ - You have collected failure information but don't know what to do with it. - You want to effectively utilize the collected failure information. - You want to analyze the failure information yourself but don't know the best method. - You want to connect the analysis results to actions to reduce opportunity loss. ◆Organizing Failure Information Data and Building a System◆ Our company addresses the above concerns by: 1. Clarifying the problem awareness. 2. Presenting and selecting the key performance indicators (KPIs) to be calculated. 3. Creating a database for failure information. 4. Conducting analysis using the current failure data. 5. Considering actions derived from the analysis results. 6. Building a system to carry out steps 1 to 5. We assist in organizing failure information and building a system that allows customers to select actions that could reduce defects or failures leading to opportunity loss based on the analysis results. The above content assumes that failure information has been collected in advance, but we can also accommodate situations where failure information is extremely limited or not collected at all.
