Introducing VPG Suite 2022 a LS-DYNA plugin vertical application toolbox
For years, VPG has helped engineers in the transportation industries understand true system performance and provide early system-level validation through virtual proving grounds simulations. The all-new VPG Suite 2022 accomplishes this goal and much more.
What's New in VPG Suite 2022
The suite focuses on two major modules, Crash/Safety, and Structure
New Module
Crash / Safety
The Safety Module provides convenient, simple operations, a modernized user interface, high accuracy across all features, and easy pre & post-processing and auto reports for:
Regulations
Supporting the latest regulations across the globe, including FMVSS, ECE, NCAP, and others.
Pedestrian Protection (PedPro)
Automatic reporting, damage & score calculation, layout impact points, and more.
Restraint
Create & adjust a full 3-point seatbelt with shoulder straps, waist straps, and retractors.
Interior
Create & configure sliding seat positionings, steering wheels, and instrument panel parts for maximum simulation detail.
Bus Rollover
Simulate full bus rollover events under ECE Regulation No. 66 standards.
New Module
Structure
The Structure Module provides digitized actual Proving Ground road surface, tire, and suspension toolsets. These tools provide a great deal of assistance when configuring rigid, flexible, or hybrid chassis/suspension models and evaluating vehicle dynamics, road load, and suspension behavior, as well as placing virtual accelerometers and evaluating the body structure under actual proving ground loading conditions.
The Structure Module also provides:
Early intervention
Find and fix issues fast in the road load test phase of prototype vehicles.
Early phase data
Gain early insights for improvements and cost reductions in structural durability analysis & more.
Actual road load data
Gain and measure accurate data for structure evaluations and correlation studies.
Reduce costs
Eliminate unnecessary spending on real-world road tests and vehicle prototyping.
