\u201cThe Engineering Center is an important part of Siemens\u2019 efforts to boost the development of Chengdu\u2019s auto industry. Siemens will be employing a sustainable operation mechanism to bring in our leading technologies and best practices from around the world to better equip local teams, cultivate creative talents, incubate innovative enterprises, and drive high-quality development of Chengdu\u2019s auto industry with open and digital innovation, helping to create China\u2019s \u2018Auto Silicon Valley\u2019 and future auto industry\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction Engineering Center has started<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe Chengdu government wanted to build an autonomous vehicle<\/a> and electric vehicle <\/a>engineering center to showcase the latest technology to their visitors. This is no vision of the future, but rather real-world capabilities which the user can immediately deploy in their development projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThe construction of the AV\/EV engineering center has now started. Soon visitors and potential customers will experience a complete overview, from vehicle design to manufacturing and integrated simulation and testing solutions. They\u2019ll see how a comprehensive digital twin<\/a> will transform the future of engineering innovation and how it will free engineers from the constraints of today to build the products of tomorrow. <\/p>\n\n\n\nSimcenter\u00a0technology, part the\u00a0Siemens Xcelerator\u00a0portfolio, forms\u00a0the basis of all these setups.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n \u201cSimulation and test are the beating heart of the digital twin. We provide a predictive capability that captures every aspect of product performance and allows the digital twin to evolve throughout every challenge a product faces in its operational lifetime\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\nViews of the new engineering center in Chengdu, China<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nSetting<\/strong> up<\/strong> with <\/strong>Simcenter<\/strong> Engineering<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\nSiemens will deliver the integrated simulation and test solutions and demonstration labs, hardware, software licenses and services. By combining multi-physics simulation and testing, integrated within product lifecycle activities, these solutions help to accelerate engineering innovation. Simcenter Engineering and Consulting services<\/a> experts take the lead to provide application technology in six demonstration labs. The overall project consists of five phases.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSimcenter Engineering is currently executing the first phase by building five demonstrators and test labs. In the second phase, the digital twin e-driveline will be built. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These are the demonstrators and test labs currently being built: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Autonomous driver assistance systems (ADAS)<\/strong>. Validates the ADAS algorithms in order to deliver safe and tested products to the customer and the roads. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Vehicle energy management.<\/strong> Captures the global energy distribution and meet range, drivability and performance expectations. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Battery simulation.<\/strong> Allows battery pack sizing in early stage design using high fidelity analysis tools while evaluating realistic drive cycles. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Battery management system<\/strong>. Monitors the battery pack\u2019s temperature, state-of-health and charge level, ensuring optimal performance while keeping the pack in safe operating condition. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Multi-attribute balancing<\/strong>. Balances and optimizes seemingly conflicting performance requirements of individual attributes. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Digital twin e-driveline. <\/strong>Studies the performance of key e-driveline components such as battery pack, e-motor, transmission and inverter. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Simcenter Engineering experts will help bring the technology directly to the automotive industry. The multiple disciplines offer real-world examples that customers can immediately deploy in their own development projects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
5 years from now<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n\n\nBoth startups and larger car companies can use the Chengdu center\u2019s technologies. However, startups will reap the biggest advantage because, for them, it provides invaluable hands-on experience. With these capabilities, they can rethink and optimize their development approach and quickly deploy their technology solutions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The center also includes the ability for these companies to set up tests and validate systems at their own companies similar to the ones shown in the Chengdu showroom. Due to these advanced technologies, the Chengdu area expects to attract companies starting their autonomous vehicle development. This in turn will enable the area to become a magnate for autonomous and electric vehicle development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n \u201cThe auto industry is one of Chengdu\u2019s pillar industries, and the Internet of Vehicles (Intelligent Connected Vehicles) is the future of vehicles. Siemens boasts a long history of innovation and is a leader in this field. This is a massive step toward building Chengdu into the \u2018Auto Silicon Valley\u2019 and becoming a leading base for the Internet of Vehicles (Intelligent Connected Vehicles)\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
