Journée d'étude : Robust design through simulation
Paris La Défense - Pôle Léonard de Vinci
16 Octobre 2008 / October 16th, 2008

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVES
The challenge faced by automotive designers is to avoid costly “test and error” cycles resulting in products that are neither robust enough nor quick enough to market, mainly because they were insufficiently optimized during the early design stage. With constantly increasing computational performance and modelling efficiency, a number of techniques combining numerical and experimental simulation with robust engineering approaches, have now reached industrial maturity.
-
Design of Experiments (DoE) techniques applied to numerical simulation or physical testing,
-
Multi-disciplinary optimization techniques,
-
Topology optimization,
-
Design for Six Sigma (DFSS) approaches,
-
Monte Carlo simulation,
-
Probabilistic mechanics and structural reliability approaches,
-
Functional and dysfunctional behaviour modelling
The main challenge for these methods is to ensure optimal performance whilst reducing its variability. Subsequently, these techniques enable product optimization in terms of cost and reliability, over short design cycles. To provide a forum for debating these methods, their operating modes, their conditions for success and their limits, the SIA’s technical committees "Quality and Reliability" and "Simulation & associated Methodologies" have united to organise a day of conference.
This Conference will focus on robust optimisation of mechanical systems. The typology and the fields of interest of a wide range of methods – both current and those under development – will be presented as an introduction.
