Rail
Carbon-free transportation is expanding within cities as a convenient means of reducing traffic and emissions or within countries as an alternative to automotive or aircraft.
ESI provide a solution for rail vehicles that addresses multi-disciplinary domains and engineering challenges:
- Complete crashworthiness simulation for Tramway
- Locomotive cooling systems optimization
- Aerodynamics flow simulation to reduce energetics costs
- Structure-borne noise transmission simulation in trains
- Design for interior sound quality for underground trains and trains
Some of the major manufacturers already use our solution:
- "Alstom Transport relies on ESI’s numerical simulations to optimize the cooling system of our locomotives." Etienne Grappein, Alstom Aeraulic Expert
- “Alstom works with ESI to study the aerodynamic flow around the TGV." “Alstom works with ESI to improve aeroacoustic noise of the TGV." P. Henry, Alstom Aerodynamic Expert
- "Hybrid FE-SEA analysis is a real leap forward when it comes to acoustical modeling technologies and is likely to set the standard for industrial computational acoustics of large structures for the future. The innovative integration of FE and SEA methods within one model allows the user to solve problems that cannot be addressed by applying SEA or FE methods separately.” Ulf Orrenius, Senior Specialist: Acoustics and Vibration, Bombardier Transportation
