The moving world of engineering
The world of engineering is constantly moving. Here we gather some of the most important developments and news.
Use case
In a world where sustainability and speed are everything, Prodrive gains a strategic advantage through smart material selection.
The Belgian Innoptus Solar Team has revealed Infinite Apollo, a high-tech solar car built to defend their world title at the 2025 World Solar Challenge in Australia, featuring groundbreaking dual fins and ultra-efficient solar panels.
Following the successes of the past year, the 4ITEGO Group will also support the new Solar Team in their pursuit score a hattrick by becoming world champions again in Australia.
During the race, the team also broke the daily distance record twice, an incredible achievement in this prestigious competition.
In an ever changing market, designing eco friendly products becomes more important each day. Customers are looking more towards the sustainability of a product nowadays to see how ecofriendly it is. But how can you improve the adaptation of eco design within your company?
Use case
If you want to build the fastest solar car in the world, you need to make sure that all parts are perfect. But how do you define perfect? And how can you be sure the design is perfect when you don’t have time to test everything live? Therefore the Innoptus Solar Team uses extensive CFD simulations.
Every product has a certain lifespan. How long this period is, depends on a lot of different influences, both external and internal. How can you predict the lifespan of your product to make sure it lasts long enough? Ansys software can help you with this.
Electricity generates heat. When you design a electronic application, you need to make sure that your design is safe. Thermal Reliability should therefore be an important part in your design process. But how can you simulate this and prevent heat from causing issues?
