Simulations
Simulation means modeling physical sequences in a dynamic environment. Simulations can be rather diverse and generally represent laws of nature, mechanical processes, electrical integrated circuits but also complex multidisciplinary systems such as, for example, a flight control unit. Simulations are seldom exact but it is every simulation engineers goal to model reality as close as necessary.
Separations
One of the important topic during the integration process of new stores and external accessories to an aircraft is the numeric prediction of separation trajectories of ejected parts. With the aid of computer simulations, a large array of evaluation data can be calculated. Supported by validation tests on the ground and, thereafter, in the air, the full flight regime can be analyzed and evaluated.
Structure modelling
The properties and behaviour of mechanical components in a dynamic environment have to be known in detail before being manufactured. By the use of computational finite element modelling, also gauged structural components subjected to high rotational speed and dynamic loading can be efficiently developed.
