EVENT DESCRIPTION:<br />
Formula 1 (F1) racing pushes the limits of mechanical and human possibilities,<br />
crossing the boundaries between driving and flying with speeds up to 220 mph/354<br />
kmh and forces that can top 5 Gs. With the cars heavily dependent on the use of<br />
advanced materials, most notable carbon composites, more often than not it is the<br />
choice and behavior of those materials that determine performance. For the Lotus F1<br />
team (Enstone, U.K.), optimizing performance is a composites engineering balancing<br />
act supported by a large set of engineering tools and processes. In this webinar, Ian<br />
Goddard will discuss how the Lotus F1 team meets the demands of a pressure-filled<br />
design cycle with the help of the Fibersim portfolio of software for composites<br />
engineering from Siemens PLM Software to make the ‘perfect’ car stiffer, lighter and<br />
faster year after year.<br />
IAN GODDARD<br />
Senior CAE Engineer,<br />
Lotus F1 Team<br />
PARTICIPANTS WILL LEARN:<br />
• Best practices of composite engineering<br />
• How cross-departmental communication between design, analysis and manufacture<br />
enables part and process optimization<br />
• What the key issues are that need to be addressed by engineering software to efficiently<br />
engineer composite components<br />
• How Siemens PLM Fibersim software extends beyond F1 with commonalities shared across<br />
high-volume automotive and aerospace<br />
