In today’s highly competitive market, optimizing research and development (R&D) is critical for manufacturing companies. As foreign businesses expand in Vietnam, achieving both technical efficiency and cost effectiveness becomes increasingly important. One key solution that has transformed the global automotive industry is engineering simulation — a digital approach that enables engineers to innovate faster and at lower cost. 1. The limitations of traditional R&D Traditional R&D processes rely heavily on physical prototyping and testing. Every design change requires new prototypes, lab tests, or field trials — consuming massive resources and extending development timelines.In the automotive sector, testing for crash performance,...
Introduction In today’s digital engineering era, CAD (Computer-Aided Design) and CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) have become two essential pillars of product development.Many organizations still treat them as separate stages – one designs, the other simulates.In fact, tight collaboration between CAD and CAE teams is the key to achieving faster development, lower costs, and higher-quality products. 1. CAD and CAE – Two parts of one process CAD creates precise 3D geometry and structural data, while CAE validates those designs through simulations such as stress, vibration, heat transfer, and fluid dynamics.Together, they allow engineers to: Detect design flaws early; Optimize material and weight;...
