关于客户
BNSF Logistics LLC 是一家注册工程公司,专门从事轨道车设计、应力分析、风力涡轮机叶片运输和货物固定。 BNSFL 在铁路行业拥有 100 多年的经验,是该领域值得信赖的品牌。他们以其创新的解决方案和致力于为客户提供高质量服务而闻名。在这种情况下,一位新客户联系 BNSFL,要求对其有盖料斗设计进行应力分析。当确定需要进行重大结构更改才能满足行业标准时,客户扩大了工作范围,包括修改后的 CAD 设计和支持应力分析。
挑战
在铁路行业,硬件测试是一个昂贵且耗时的过程,通常仅限于硕士和博士的研究和开发。水平。对于典型的轨道车制造来说,这种细节程度通常是不必要的,而且成本高昂。然而,随着越来越多的轨道车因使用年限而被淘汰,对新轨道车设计的需求不断增长。铁路车货运因其大批量运输成本低而受到许多公司的青睐。 BNSF Logistics LLC (BNSFL) 的一位新客户要求对其有盖料斗设计进行应力分析。当明确需要进行重大结构改变才能满足美国铁路协会 (AAR) 的要求时,客户要求在 FEA 验证之外进行更大的工作范围。随后,BNSFL 的任务是提供修改后的 CAD 设计并支持应力分析。该项目的成功取决于模拟来证明轨道车的结构完整性。
解决方案
BNSFL 与 ANSYS 合作,能够为客户提供可靠的轨道车设计。 ANSYS 被专门选为仿真解决方案,因为它易于与其他 CAD 软件进行模型集成、线性和非线性分析的高级功能、精确度和准确性的可靠性以及其作为结构仿真领域领导者的行业声誉。 ANSYS 提供了一种从原始 CAD 模型接收应力反馈的可靠方法,从而实现快速周转过程。这有助于向客户按时交付绘图包,并提供一种比传统硬件测试更具成本效益的替代验证方法。

Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.

IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.

Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.

Cold Chain Transportation and Refrigerated Fleet Management System
1) Create a digital connected transportation solution to retrofit cold chain trailers with real-time tracking and controls. 2) Prevent multi-million dollar losses due to theft or spoilage. 3) Deliver a digital chain-of-custody solution for door to door load monitoring and security. 4) Provide a trusted multi-fleet solution in a single application with granular data and access controls.
Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
