关于客户
Serapid 是一家专门设计重载传输系统的公司。他们的技术基于其独特的“刚性链”概念。在设计支撑平台时,他们经常使用供应商提供的零件的虚拟几何形状。这些要安装在平台上的部件没有内容——它们只是固体的外皮。 Serapid 使用这些虚拟模型来正确调整平台尺寸并将部件放置在平台上。供应商还向他们提供了虚拟零件的质量。然后,Serapid 需要模拟完整的结构,并为其加载已安装设备的重量。
挑战
Serapid 是一家设计重载传输系统的公司,经常使用供应商提供的零件虚拟几何形状。这些安装在平台上的部件基本上是空心固体。虽然这些假人对于 Serapid 正确调整平台尺寸和定位部件至关重要,但它们在模拟完整结构时构成了挑战。该公司需要向结构加载已安装设备的重量,这个过程可能既耗时又复杂。每个零件的重量都施加在其重心 (COG) 上,这是一个远程负载施加点。这意味着需要评估每个部件的 COG,并在平台上创建需要创建远程负载的位置。当安装许多设备时,此过程可能特别具有挑战性且耗时。
解决方案
Serapid 通过使用 Altair SimSolid 中的刚性零件功能找到了应对这一挑战的创新解决方案。他们没有使用远程加载功能,而是使虚拟几何体变得刚性。这种方法非常有效,因为 Serapid 不需要担心聚光灯本身的应力和变形——这是供应商的责任。要使零件刚性化,他们需要转到装配工作台,从工具栏打开刚性零件对话框,选择要使其刚性化的零件并为其分配质量。他们还在结构分析工作台中应用重力。然后,SimSolid 自动计算施加到虚拟零件的重力载荷,并将载荷传递到结构。该解决方案显着简化了流程并节省了时间。

Energy Saving & Power Monitoring System
Recently a university in Taiwan was experiencing dramatic power usage increases due to its growing number of campus buildings and students. Aiming to analyze their power consumption and increase their power efficiency across 52 buildings, the university wanted to build a power management system utilizing web-based hardware and software. With these goals in mind, they contacted Advantech to help them develop their system and provide them with the means to save energy in the years to come.

IoT System for Tunnel Construction
The Zenitaka Corporation ('Zenitaka') has two major business areas: its architectural business focuses on structures such as government buildings, office buildings, and commercial facilities, while its civil engineering business is targeted at structures such as tunnels, bridges and dams. Within these areas, there presented two issues that have always persisted in regard to the construction of mountain tunnels. These issues are 'improving safety" and "reducing energy consumption". Mountain tunnels construction requires a massive amount of electricity. This is because there are many kinds of electrical equipment being used day and night, including construction machinery, construction lighting, and ventilating fan. Despite this, the amount of power consumption is generally not tightly managed. In many cases, the exact amount of power consumption is only ascertained when the bill from the power company becomes available. Sometimes, corporations install demand-monitoring equipment to help curb the maximum power demanded. However, even in these cases, the devices only allow the total volume of power consumption to be ascertained, or they may issue warnings to prevent the contracted volume of power from being exceeded. In order to tackle the issue of reducing power consumption, it was first necessary to obtain an accurate breakdown of how much power was being used in each particular area. In other words, we needed to be able to visualize the amount of power being consumed. Safety, was also not being managed very rigorously. Even now, tunnel construction sites often use a 'name label' system for managing entry into the work site. Specifically, red labels with white reverse sides that bear the workers' names on both sides are displayed at the tunnel work site entrance. The workers themselves then flip the name label to the appropriate side when entering or exiting from the work site to indicate whether or not they are working inside the tunnel at any given time. If a worker forgets to flip his or her name label when entering or exiting from the tunnel, management cannot be performed effectively. In order to tackle the challenges mentioned above, Zenitaka decided to build a system that could improve the safety of tunnel construction as well as reduce the amount of power consumed. In other words, this new system would facilitate a clear picture of which workers were working in each location at the mountain tunnel construction site, as well as which processes were being carried out at those respective locations at any given time. The system would maintain the safety of all workers while also carefully controlling the electrical equipment to reduce unnecessary power consumption. Having decided on the concept, our next concern was whether there existed any kind of robust hardware that would not break down at the construction work site, that could move freely in response to changes in the working environment, and that could accurately detect workers and vehicles using radio frequency identification (RFID). Given that this system would involve many components that were new to Zenitaka, we decided to enlist the cooperation of E.I.Sol Co., Ltd. ('E.I.Sol') as our joint development partner, as they had provided us with a highly practical proposal.

Intelligent Building Automation System and Energy Saving Solution
One of the most difficult problems facing the world is conserving energy in buildings. However, it is not easy to have a cost-effective solution to reduce energy usage in a building. One solution for saving energy is to implement an intelligent building automation system (BAS) which can be controlled according to its schedule. In Indonesia a large university with a five floor building and 22 classrooms wanted to save the amount of energy being used.
