Articles
Optimized EV Charging: AI-Driven Model Reduction
With AUDI: an AI-reduced model sizes charging cables with phase-change material for fast charging, without simulating every variant.
AI in CFD simulation: neural networks optimise atmospheric water generators to reduce energy demand
A neural network assesses pipe cross-sections and bends, lowering flow resistance and the energy demand of water generators.
AI in FEM simulation: accelerated optimisation of plastic snap hook designs in the automotive industry
Neural networks predict snap hook stress from geometry, material and boundary conditions, and solve the design task inversely as well.
AI-supported component optimisation for more efficient electric vehicles
Phase-change material as passive heat storage during fast charging: FEM study, prototype and an ML model for inverse design.
Innovation in injection molding: process simulation for water injection technology
How a neural network predicts residual wall thickness and returns the process setting for a required thickness.
