Operational Impact
The adoption of the RADIOSS cut methodology by Ford's battery core team resulted in several operational benefits. The team was able to create detailed CAE models of battery arrays that could be simplified for use by full vehicle teams, resolving the conflicting requirements of the two teams. This approach also allowed for a quick turnaround time, enabling the team to run optimization and design exploration more efficiently. Furthermore, the use of a common interface facilitated the sharing of data between different departments, improving collaboration and efficiency. Finally, the detailed modelling improved the accuracy of the simulations, leading to better design and performance of the battery modules and components. | |
