LMS Imagine.Lab AMESim offers a complete 1D simulation suite to model and analyze multi-domain, intelligent systems and to predict their multi- disciplinary performance. The components of the model are described by analytical models representing the hydraulic, pneumatic, electric or mechanical behavior of the system. To create the system simulation model in AMESim, the user can make use of a large set of validated libraries of pre-defined components from different physical domains. The software creates a physics based model of the system, which doesn’t require a full 3D geometry representation. This approach gives AMESim the capability to simulate the behavior of intelligent systems long before detailed CAD geometry becomes available.
LMS Imagine.Lab offers an extensive set of application specific solutions which comprise a dedicated set of application libraries and focus on delivering simulation capabilities to assess the behavior of specific subsystems. The current portfolio includes solutions for internal combustion engines, transmissions, thermal management systems, vehicle systems dynamics, fluid systems, aircraft ground loads, flight controls, and electrical systems. The solutions combine strong simulation capabilities, effective interfaces with leading CAE solutions and advanced tools to study the static/dynamic functional behavior of any component or system in a graphical, user-friendly environment.
The LMS Imagine.Lab application specific solutions allow users focus on their design and engineering issues, without having to extensive time in creating and validating models. Suppliers can model, simulate and validate components early in the design process and provide a virtual functional mock-up of components or subsystem to the OEM. Manufacturers are then able to simulate the integration of suppliers’ components and sub-systems in order to match the product functions specifications and validate key design choices.
AMESim has been adopted as the preferred 1-D system simulation platform by major OEMs and suppliers in the automotive, aerospace mechanical industries worldwide. The reference list include companies like General Motors, Toyota, Renault, PSA Peugeot Citroen, Bosch, Siemens, Delphi, Airbus, Embraer, Dassault, Snecma, Caterpillar, Komatsu, CNH…
