Often funded by venture capital, these new entrants must hit challenging milestones to secure their next round of funding. But how are the vehicles, loaded with electronics and software, actually designed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Digital twin and functional systems engineering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The digital functional twin, closely related to Model-Based Systems Engineering, is a key concept. Application of the twin can dramatically compress development timescales, support compliance mandates, and foster engineering innovation. This presentation explores the ideas behind the twin and how modern design automation tools turn these ideas into reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key takeaways from this webinar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Digitalization is changing how cars are designed<\/li><li>How systems engineering is shaping next generation vehicles<\/li><li>Why a functional digital twin is an important part of engineering<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who will find this webinar valuable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Engineering managers<\/li><li>Technology directors<\/li><li>Product managers<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Watch this webinar: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plm.automation.siemens.com\/global\/en\/webinar\/vehicle-design\/83330\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The digital functional twin &#8211; Driving autonomous and electric vehicle design<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might also find this blog interesting: <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/2020\/07\/31\/lightweight-ev-design-requires-multi-domain-approach\/\">Lightweight EV design requires multi-domain approach<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ON-DEMAND WEBINAR&nbsp;| 32 MINUTES Rethink product development for autonomous and electric vehicle design Technology and business model disruption has created&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":69352,"featured_media":579,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spanish_translation":"","french_translation":"","german_translation":"","italian_translation":"","polish_translation":"","japanese_translation":"","chinese_translation":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[94],"tags":[122,10,112,443],"industry":[42],"product":[176],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-webinar","tag-autonomous-vehicles","tag-digital-twin","tag-electric-vehicles","tag-mbse","industry-automotive-transportation","product-capital"],"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/24\/2020\/08\/Autonomous-driving-bridge-scaled.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/577","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/69352"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=577"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/577\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":583,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/577\/revisions\/583"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/579"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=577"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=577"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=577"},{"taxonomy":"industry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/industry?post=577"},{"taxonomy":"product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?post=577"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/ee-systems\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=577"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
