Effect of the spot welding simulation strategy on analysis of performance in automotive parts

Last year, together with our sister company IDIADA, we presented at the 72nd Annual Assembly & International Conference in Bratislava Slovakia. Our presentation dealt with the simulation of spot welds to determine material properties after welding. Our approach used our signature techniques for welding simulation combined with the results of thermo-mechanical materials tests. The results of these simulations were then used by IDIADA to improve their crash test models

Last November our paper from the conference was translated into Polish and published in ‘Projektowanie i Konstrukcje Inzynierskie’ magazine. Our article was was chosen by internet voters as the best (‘most wanted’) article from this issue of the magazine.

Congratulation to Mahyar and his team for this achievement.
