SAR is a unique knowledge based analytical software to identify critical squeak and rattle locations from any complicated mechanical or structural assembly.
SAR provides a simple, accurate, real time cost-effictive solution to solve SAR issues at a very early product development phase.
Highlights
| » | Uses existing FEA models of any standard NVH, Durability or Safety Simulation |
| » | Automates virtual SAR evaluation with minimal user interaction |
| » | Provides part pairs along with critical locations |
| » | Accounts for GD&T issues under dynamic loads |
| » | Accounts for material (Impact and Friction) properties |
| » | Accounts for Thermal influence |
| » | Supports automatic report generation as well as interactive dynamic results visualization |
| » | User defined customized presentation of results |
