关于客户
本案例研究中的客户是瑞尔森国际超级高铁团队 (RIHT),该团队由瑞尔森大学硕士生 Graeme Klim 及其同事组成。该团队是为了响应 SpaceX 埃隆·马斯克发起的超级高铁设计竞赛而成立的。 RIHT 决定将重点放在类似于飞机起落架的低速紧急子系统上,他们将其命名为“超级高铁可展开轮系统”。该团队已显着壮大,现在包括 6 名学生和 5 名顾问。他们的目标是继续开发其超级高铁可展开轮系统,并希望将可展开轮系统纳入另一个团队的吊舱中,以便开发完整的系统。
挑战
瑞尔森大学的国际超级高铁团队 (RIHT) 面临着为超级高铁吊舱设计可展开轮子子系统(类似于飞机起落架)的挑战,该子系统可以轻松地以 100 英里/小时以下的速度移动。由 SpaceX 的埃隆·马斯克发起的超级高铁设计竞赛就是提出这一挑战的平台。由瑞尔森大学硕士生 Graeme Klim 领导的 RIHT 决定重点研究类似于飞机起落架的低速紧急子系统,他们将其命名为“超级高铁可展开轮系统”。该团队必须将他们的设计理念提交给比赛的第一轮淘汰赛,该比赛有数千个参赛作品。在淘汰赛中获胜后,该团队受邀参加 2016 年 1 月的超级高铁设计周末,并因其车轮系统赢得了子系统创新奖。
解决方案
该挑战的解决方案是使用solidThinking Inspire 重新设计定制电机支架。该支架专为增材制造而设计和生产。获得子系统创新奖后,该团队开始了轮子系统的开发过程,并开始与赞助商联系。在此过程中,他们发现了在设计中实施优化工具的好处。该团队引入了solidThinking Inspire,他们用它来重新设计安装电机的支架。支架的最终设计非常有机且独特,使其适合增材制造生产。该团队对新设计进行了许多不同的有限元分析测试,以验证它在所有使用场景中都能表现良好。最终零件采用 AlSi10Mg 制成,比实心支架机器轻 70% 以上。

Smart Water Filtration Systems
Before working with Ayla Networks, Ozner was already using cloud connectivity to identify and solve water-filtration system malfunctions as well as to monitor filter cartridges for replacements.But, in June 2015, Ozner executives talked with Ayla about how the company might further improve its water systems with IoT technology. They liked what they heard from Ayla, but the executives needed to be sure that Ayla’s Agile IoT Platform provided the security and reliability Ozner required.

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
