Description

Short description:
Analyzes primary and secondary mass change effects on component and subsystem behavior in vehicles.

Long description:
This module explores the concept of mass changes in vehicle components and their cascading secondary effects on vehicle systems. Learners study the procedure for inputting mass-related data for original and competitor components, including materials and shaping processes. Special attention is given to how the Design Advisor uses benchmark data to scale components and predict impacts on other subsystems. The module encourages analytical thinking in evaluating engineering trade-offs and interdependencies between component mass and subsystem behaviors.

What you will learn

- Analyze mass change inputs for original and competitor components in vehicle design.
- Use benchmark data to scale components to a nominal vehicle context.
- Evaluate secondary effects of component mass changes on other vehicle systems.
- Interpret how materials and shaping processes influence subsystem mass dynamics.
- Predict design impacts using mass change analytics in Design Advisor.
