Analysis and Simulation Services

Thumbprint Solutions has over 15 years of proven experience using world-class finite element and multi-body dynamic simulation software to solve a wide variety of engineering problems.

TSI has successfuly applied Finite Element simulation, Multi-body Dynamics and Numerical Optimization to problems ranging from simple natural frequency analyses to complicated multi-vehicle crash simulations.  We have provided services to automotive OEM's and suppliers, consumer products manufacturers and even crash simulation support for legal and forensic investigations. 

CAE Software:

  • Altair HyperWorks
    • HyperMesh/MotionView
    • OptiStruct/Radioss/MotionSolve
    • HyperStudy/HyperOpt
  • LS-Dyna
    • Explicit
    • Implicit
    • LS-Opt
    • ALE

Sample Projects:

Some simulations that we have performed include:
  • vehicle crash simulation (LS-Dyna)
  • composite vehicle structural analysis and optimization for mass, stiffness and durability
  • sheet metal forming simulation
  • vehicle energy consumption and power modeling
  • C/FMVSS strength analysis
  • topology optimization to develop rib patterns in moulded consumer products
  • topography optimization to develop rib and bead patterns in stamped metal components
  • ANOVA analysis to identify the sensitivity of product performance to variations in design variables
  • drop-test and impact analysis
  • vehicle dynamics simulation to determine durability loads using accelerometer test data and flex-body MBD model

Other CAE Services:

TSI also offers other CAE services including;

  • FE meshing and model creation
  • Model and process development
  • Simulation best-practices and process automation
  • Scripting and macro development
  • Training and mentoring services
