Returning and redistributing very large numbers of battle-hardened equipment is not only a significant logistical challenge, it poses significant engineering challenges as well. Much of the equipment needs repair along with component and system-level upgrades. All this must be completed in the context of the well-publicized fiscal challenges, which leaves program managers and engineering teams facing closely scrutinized cost, schedule and quality key performance indicators with constrained resources. To quote Colonel David Bassett, Army Program Manager for Tactical Vehicles from November's issue of National Defense Magazine, "Industry has learned that there is no silver bullet. It's about smart engineering. We think the companies that understand that are going to be postured to compete effectively."
In this webinar we will introduce physics-based engineering simulation as a key enabler for smart engineering and through real-world examples demonstrate its impact on program cost, schedule and quality metrics. By leveraging the power of physics-based engineering simulation early in the process you will be able to re-engineer, reset and redistribute with confidence.
