Automotive

The Gothenburg region has a long history of vehicle development and is really at the forefront when it comes to using simulation methods in product development.

In recent years, the industry has undergone a change where the time to develop new products has decreased significantly. The number of preliminary series has decreased and far fewer prototypes are built.
In some cases, traditional physical testing has completely disappeared and decisions are instead based solely on simulation results. This means that new methods must constantly be developed in order to be able to predict the properties of new products at an early stage.

“The difference between Uniso and other companies in the industry is that they can not only manage the FEM programs, but they also have a good understanding of the mechanics. This results in short lead times and less risk of wrong conclusions.”

Subcontractor to the automotive industry
Uniso's knowledge and broad experience suit this new climate perfectly, as the ability to adapt and create new methods to quickly find solutions and opportunities is of the utmost importance.

Our assignments are in the areas of construction mechanics, often with a clear specialization in areas such as NVH, transmissions or friction. We see a clear trend that the field of simulation is expanding. New simulation requirements arise and calculation methods are increasingly used to describe complex systems. Examples of this could be calculating the load on a vehicle's components by simulating the vehicle in motion, where both the road characteristics and the driver's behavior are included.

Our assignments are carried out both in our own premises and at our customers', and the tools vary from the classic FE programs to special tools for components such as engines, or sometimes tools we have developed for special applications.

The next big challenge for the industry is to develop vehicles that are powered by electricity. This will place new demands on properties and will in turn increase the need to simulate these.
