Engineering Certainty: TriMech Virtual Vehicle Forum

What's Happening

About the Event

Bridging the gap between simulation and reality in the automotive industry.

The automotive landscape is evolving at breakneck speed, moving toward a future defined by electrification, sustainable materials, and AI-driven design. To stay ahead, engineering teams must move beyond traditional testing and embrace “Engineering Certainty.”

The TriMech Virtual Vehicle Forum is a dedicated technical deep-dive into how MODSIM (Modeling & Simulation) and advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA) are transforming vehicle development. From the complexities of composite crash testing to the invisible challenges of electromagnetics and acoustics, this forum brings together industry experts to showcase the workflows that ensure high-performance vehicles reach the road faster and safer.

Why Attend the Virtual Vehicle Forum?

  • Master the Latest Tech: Get a first look at the newest updates in Abaqus and discover how AI-driven optimisation is revolutionising the design process.
  • Specialised Deep Dives: Move beyond generalisations with specific sessions on Composite Homologation, Electric Vehicle (EV) integration, and Electromagnetics.
  • Solve NVH Challenges: Learn from Dassault Systèmes experts on how to manage Acoustics—a critical factor in the refined environment of modern EVs.
  • Networking & Access: Connect with industry peers over lunch and go behind the scenes with an exclusive MIRA tour at the conclusion of the event.

Who Should Attend?

This forum is curated for professionals looking to sharpen their vehicle virtual prototyping strategies, including:

  • Simulation & FEA Engineers looking to leverage the latest Abaqus and AI tools.
  • Automotive Design Leads focused on EV homologation and light-weighting through composites.
  • NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness) Specialists tackling the unique acoustic profiles of electric powertrains.
  • Technical Directors aiming to reduce physical prototyping costs through a MODSIM-first approach.
