Prediction of the dimensional accuracy of a passenger car tailgate using thermomechanical coupled FE simulation - Generate stations with reference to the actual setup like (clamp, pilot points) for various operations. - Deck preparation for different stations (spot, laser welding) with in-house tools. - Station-wise FE simulation with LS Dyna. - Changes in design as per requirement. - Validation with Manufactured parts.

Deck Preparation for Tail-Gate - Modelling of station using in-House Tool. - Product Protection of a rear wall door of a passenger car. - Creation of flow diagram of the Body-In-White Process chain. - Using Ansa, model for FE-simulation was created and optimized for welding process. - Simulation of Station in Ls-Dyna.

Tropfen Falzen Simulation - Design the optimal "Open flange length" for Simulation purpose - Understand the Roll-in and Roll-out Criteria and Roller Positioning. - Understand the Linear and Non-Linear behavior of Rope Hemm at 90°, 110° and 130° respectively, study of post forming results. - Perform simulations for Straight, Convex Panels by varying multiple variants like open flange length (Offen Flanschlänge), different Radius for Convex Profile, different folding tolerance.
