Who we arezSpar Point Research LLC zFounded 2003 byBruce Jenkins, Tom GreavesResearching best practices forcreating, modifying, managingengineered products, built assetsMaximizing technology’s business impactBruce Jenkins President of Research, Spar Point Researchwww.sparllc.comwww.sparllc.com 2007 Spar Point Research LLC2
Digital simulation best practiceszIndustries researched by Spar Point zAerospace & defenseAircraft enginesAutomotive powertrainConsumer electronicsMedical devicesOff-highway equipmentSolutions in use at companies studied www.sparllc.comABAQUS, AMEsim, ANSYS, CFD , CFX, COSMOSWorks, Elfini,EXCITE, Femap, FEMLAB (now COMSOL Multiphysics),Flowmaster, Fluent, Hypermesh, I-DEAS CAE, LS-DYNA,MATLAB, Moldflow, MSC.Adams, MSC.Nastran, MSC.Patran,NPSS, NX Nastran, Simulink, STAR-CD, Valvedyn, Vectis,WAVE. 2007 Spar Point Research LLC3
Business drivers for bettersimulation data/process managementzzIncreasing efficiency and impact of CAE usage is agoal of all industries studiedChallenges zAnswer zProject/program schedules – not enough timeHuman resources – not enough trained, qualified staffResistance to change – cultures, legacy work processesMake more efficient use of existing resources – softwaretools, engineering staff hours, corporate knowledge Through better management of simulation data andprocessesMany users recognize “PLM for CAE” as the answerwww.sparllc.com 2007 Spar Point Research LLC4
Business drivers aboundin all industries studiedImportance: HIGH MEDIUM ngineers’ need for right data, fastCorporate knowledge capture, retentionGlobal CAE data sharing, reuseManaging intra-CAE data flowsManaging CAE/CAD data flowsManaging CAE/test data correlationSupport for systems-level/whole-product simulationManaging DFSS, MDO, robust design resultsCollaborating with partners, subcontractors, suppliersProtecting IP in CAE outsourcingManaging ITAR requirementsBuilding, managing materials data librariesManaging manufacturing data needed for simulationwww.sparllc.com 2007 Spar Point Research LLC5
Business driver summaryzData needed by collateral and downstream projectfunctions is too often zCAE’s value is constrained by obstacles to zUnavailableOutdatedCaptive to error-prone manual methods of dissemination andre-entryData sharingKnowledge captureInformation reuseAlso needed – ways to capture and share bestpractice work processeswww.sparllc.com 2007 Spar Point Research LLC6
Technical enablerszSolution needs to address two different classes ofrequirements: www.sparllc.comDay-to-day needs of individual CAE analysts and engineersEnterprise-level needs 2007 Spar Point Research LLC7
Enabling user-level needszzIndividual analysts and engineers need pragmaticsolutions that let them work faster and with higherconfidenceKey requirements www.sparllc.comAbility to have confidence that analysis was based oncurrent, correct CAD configurationAbility to easily retrieve data from one CAE discipline for useas input to another disciplineAbility to easily retrieve past analysis models, processes andresults for re-execution or updating months or years later 2007 Spar Point Research LLC8
Enabling enterprise needszManufacturers report simulation data/processmanagement would be of greatest value to enterprisewhen embedded in context of: Configuration management, product structure management For coordinating CAD geometry and CAE models andprocesses. This is needed for two kinds of new-productdevelopment work processes: CAD-ledFEM-led For coordinating simulation models and results withcorresponding matrices of product variants, such as inautomotive and commercial vehicle development Change management, workflow management – for ensuringthat: Geometry changes trigger timely re-analysis Analysis results are fed back to product development, andacted onwww.sparllc.com 2007 Spar Point Research LLC9
Enabling enterprise needs cont.z simulation data/process management of greatestvalue to enterprise when embedded in context of: Requirements management – to help ensure that: System-level performance targets adhere to programrequirements Adherence is maintained as system-level targets are“cascaded” down to component-level performance targets Project/program management – for managing: www.sparllc.comControlled data sharing as determined by partner trust levelsITAR complianceSchedule adherenceDocument management – to associate simulation data with,or incorporate it into, documents such as those mandated byregulatory agenciesManagement reporting 2007 Spar Point Research LLC10
Qualifying solution providerszSpar Point’s conclusion – Best prospects for successlie in partnering with solution providers that havelongtime domain expertise in both Digital simulation and analysis (CAE) Process/Data management (PLM/PDM) www.sparllc.comEnterprise levelWorkgroup and user level 2007 Spar Point Research LLC11
Balancing user/enterprise needszEnsure solution addresses needs of two kinds ofstakeholders Discipline leads, analysts, engineers Searching for needed dataIntra-CAE data sharingCAD-CAE data sharingEncapsulating/automating repetitive tasksProgram/project managers, best-practice methods experts,IT infrastructure professionals Simulation process management has best chance foracceptance if it is an extension of existing installedinfrastructure technology with proven track recordwww.sparllc.com 2007 Spar Point Research LLC12
