HyperWorks Enhances Development Processes of Engineering Services Provider Beta Epsilon

Beta Epsilon, a design company specializing in racing cars and engineering services for automotive racing car providers and racing companies, faced a significant challenge in their development process. The company was responsible for a wide range of engineering tasks, including the meshing of parts and full vehicles, the FEA analysis of components, crash test simulation, optimization, and CFD analysis. In the design of a complete racing car, the engineers design and optimize every single part of the vehicle, simulate crash tests, simulate the CFD performance of the car, and push the test for FIA homologation before they or the customers start the production or build a prototype. To handle all of these tasks, Beta Epsilon needed a flexible and cost-efficient access to several CAE tools, some of which were used more frequently than others. However, due to the need to minimize development cost to offer their customers services at competitive prices, it was not feasible to invest in every single full license of each required tool.
