Reliability Physics Analysis Tools for Implementing GMW3172 STANDARD

    Read how to apply Reliability Physics Analysis (RPA) in Ansys Sherlock to the GMW3172 Standard for “General Specification for Electrical/Electronic Components – Environmental/Durability”, part of engineering standards by General Motors which applies to electrical components for passenger/commercial vehicles & trucks.

    Understanding Key Differences in PDM vs PLM

      Product Data Management (PDM) and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) are terms that are sometimes used interchangeably, but there are actually significant differences between them – in reality PDM is too narrow to describe the full breadth of capabilities that a true PLM system offers. LEAP’s recent webinar on this topic is summarised here to clear up any misconceptions about PDM and PLM for manufacturing organisations.

      Enhancing Materials Science education at the University of Auckland

        The University of Auckland has been teaching materials science & engineering with Granta Edupack since 2015 as part of a commitment to use the latest technology to enhance their Materials Science education.
        Read this recent interview with Dr. Josh Workman who used Granta EduPack as a Lecturer in Materials Engineering.

        Reliability Physics Analysis Tools for Implementing SAE J3168 STANDARD

          Read how to apply Reliability Physics Analysis (RPA) in Ansys Sherlock to the SAE J3168 standard, covering Electrical, Electronic, Electromechanical Equipment, Modules and Components. This standard was jointly developed by the SAE Automotive Electronic Systems Reliability Standards Committee and SAE Avionics Process Management Committee, and is the first reliability physics analysis (RPA) standard developed specifically for use in the Aerospace, Automotive, Defence and other High-Performance (AADHP) industries.

          Part 1: Using Simulation of Electronics Reliability to address industry standards (SAE J3168, MIL-810G, GMW3172 and/or DO-160G)

            It is increasingly important for product designers to consider electronics durability and PCB reliability across the product’s entire service life – accounting for all external influences that it will experience during production, shipping, and the environment during its operation. Here we look at how simulation is used to satisfy the requirements dictated by common industry standards.

            Getting the most out of Creo (Part 2)

              Part 2 – How can Creo users increase the value of their CAD models by using more advanced functionality – recordings are here on-demand and cover the use of Augmented Reality for design reviews, creation of high-quality technical illustrations and service documentation, plus generating engaging customer marketing collateral directly from your CAD model.
