LMS TecWare and
LMS TWR,
accelerating
Test-based
Durability
Engineering
Executing extensive
field tests to
validate the
durability
performance of
mechanical designs
is very expensive
and time-consuming.
This pressures
automotive OEMs and
suppliers to
efficiently
reproduce equivalent
laboratory tests.
LMS TecWare and LMS
TWR offer a robust
solution that
integrates and
automates the
physical durability
testing workflow,
from load data
processing over test
schedule
optimization up to
drive file
generation for test
rig campaigns. This
complements the IST
solution for test
rig setup, control
and data management,
and durability test
execution, to result
in the complete and
integrated
Durability Alliance
software suite for
environmental
durability
simulation.
Everything you
need for durability
load analysis
After spending a day
in the field
collecting test
data, the last thing
durability engineers
want to do is spend
the next months
interpreting them.
Converting back and
forth between
different data
formats, trying not
to lose track of
file and channel
names, attempting to
make sense of what
was so obvious in
the field. LMS
TecWare is a modular
suite of solutions
for durability load
data analysis and
synthesis. It
efficiently supports
the processing of
raw data into
loading histories
for virtual and
physical tests. It
provides all the
required tools and
streamlines the
process from data
import through
reporting to
delivering the loads
for testing –
without requiring
any cryptic commands
or writing complex
programs. LMS
TecWare can automate
existing procedures
and keep track of
the large amounts of
fi les that are
being handled.
TecWare also
provides the
traditional analyses
such as interactive
editing, rainflow
analysis,
fatigue-sensitive
time history
reduction and
experimental fatigue
life prediction.
Faster, easier,
better multi-axial
control...
Reproducing time
histories on
multi-axial test
rigs remains a
special art in many
organizations. Very
often, the drive
file generation
process takes too
long. All too often,
engineering
intuition and years
of experience are
required to gain
control of the rig.
Invariably, little
use is made of the
valuable data that
are generated...
LMS/IST RS Time
Waveform Replication
provides the most
advanced and
flexible control
features on the
market today. Some
modules incorporate
new technologies
that help slash the
time required to
reproduce measured
or synthesized drive
signals. Work that
previously took a
week is now often
finished in a day.
Others show what is
happening during the
process - the
quality of the
system model,
rainflow counting
and range pair
diagrams, structural
FRFs, time histories
and error
displays... All will
turn an intuitive
art into a faster,
safer and more
effective simulation
process.
The Durability
Alliance
The Durability
Alliance formed
between Instron
Structural Testing
Systems, LMS
International,
Kistler Instrumente
AG and Team
Corporation is
working together to
provide world-class
hardware and
software solutions
for physical
testing, virtual
prototype simulation
and engineering
analysis software.
The added value
delivered through
seamless integration
and support enables
customers to reduce
time to market and
improve product
quality and
performance. The
Alliance has been
driven by close
association with its
customers to ensure
a tight integration
of testing and
simulation software
with damage
monitoring and
analysis. LMS and
IST formed joint
development teams
and RSTWR (Time
Waveform Replication
Software) is the
prime example of
this joint effort.
