挑战
Universal Corrugated BV (UC) 联系专业独立工程服务提供商 Vierhout Engineering (VE) 来分析和模拟其一台机器。该机器非常复杂，VE 意识到传统的有限元分析 (FEA) 可能不足以满足该项目。传统的有限元分析过程需要大量的努力和专业知识来准备分析模型，特别是几何简化和网格划分。机器的复杂性意味着必须简化和划分每个组件或系统以进行分析，这是一个耗时的过程，通常会达到所用计算机的硬件限制。大型结构框架还必须使用简化的梁和板单元进行分析，这是一个繁琐、容易出错且耗时的过程。
关于客户
Universal Corrugated BV (UC) 隶属于 Minda Group，总部位于荷兰阿尔默洛，是一家为瓦楞纸板和纸板行业提供自动存款系统的公司。 UC 为瓦楞纸板工厂的干端提供解决方案，包括用于制造连续瓦楞纸板的完整系统以及瓦楞纸板加工机下游的堆垛系统。他们联系了位于荷兰亨厄洛的专业独立工程服务提供商 Vierhout Engineering (VE)，寻求对他们的一台机器进行分析和模拟的支持。
解决方案
VE 转向 Altair SimSolid，这是一款专为前期结构评估而开发的结构分析软件。 SimSolid 消除了几何简化和网格划分的需要，这是传统 FEA 中最耗时且最需要专业知识的两项任务。 VE 使用 SimSolid 详细分析结构钢机架。该框架质量约 20 吨，长约 32 米，通过不同的载荷工况以及接触和力的详细框架条件进行了分析。 SimSolid 允许 VE 分析完整的 3D 详细模型，包括具有拧紧扭矩和预张力的螺栓和螺母。对法兰连接等具有接触的零件进行几何非线性分析，包括摩擦和分离接触。这些分析的结果非常详细，并以 3D 形式清晰显示，包括基础上的材料应力、位移、模态频率和反作用力。

Smart Water Filtration Systems
Before working with Ayla Networks, Ozner was already using cloud connectivity to identify and solve water-filtration system malfunctions as well as to monitor filter cartridges for replacements.But, in June 2015, Ozner executives talked with Ayla about how the company might further improve its water systems with IoT technology. They liked what they heard from Ayla, but the executives needed to be sure that Ayla’s Agile IoT Platform provided the security and reliability Ozner required.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
