Description

Short description:
Evaluates material selection for automotive components using Design Advisor simulation to balance performance, cost, and GHG emissions.

Long description:
This module introduces the use of the Design Advisor tool to evaluate the impact of material selection on automotive components. Learners explore how different material choices affect vehicle mass, cost, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions throughout a vehicle's lifecycle. The simulation-based tool enables comparisons between nominal and competitor vehicles to identify trade-offs in performance and sustainability. By defining vehicle attributes, adjusting component materials, and analyzing environmental metrics, learners develop skills in applying lifecycle thinking to engineering design.

What you will learn

- Define vehicle attributes and parameters within the Design Advisor tool.
- Input and modify component materials for sustainability analysis.
- Compare nominal and competitor vehicle performance using environmental metrics.
- Interpret simulation results to assess trade-offs in mass, cost, and GHG emissions.
- Apply lifecycle thinking in the selection of component materials.
