Multidisciplinary Design

Emerging digital technologies and electrification are poised to revolutionize heavy equipment. These innovations increase complexity, particularly with greater interactions between mechanical, electronic and software design.
For many manufacturers, it will therefore become essential to find effective ways to manage collaborations between different departments during the design phases to stay ahead of the competition.
How to do it?
An integrated, multidisciplinary approach to concurrent design will be needed, where teams can collaborate using common tools and workflows, comprehensive multidisciplinary models, shared data, and industry standards.
To gain a competitive advantage, companies will need to use innovative equipment and strategy including:
- Creating the Complete Digital Twin to track the boundaries of all variables
- Guaranteeing information sharing across disciplines to reduce inconsistencies between and give visibility to theagrave of the impact on the product by all decisions made
- Integrating mechanical and electrical design to increase productivity on both sides
- Use matched physics simulation for multidisciplinary performance optimization, using a common CAD base that enables vertical integration between stages of the product development process
- Identify and solve problems before they occur through complete design visualization.
In this E-book we will discover the benefits of using the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, the complete and integrated portfolio of software, hardware and services to eliminate silos and adopt a multidisciplinary design strategy
