So, bringing a new solution to go along with aircraft makers in their new program strategy is part of our role at Siemens Industry Software. In this context, our simulation software development teams are focusing every day on providing the best answers and the best tools to meet those needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of these solutions is about propulsion electrification. Even if this word \u201celectrification\u201d is nowadays on every industrials\u2019 lips, making that true is another step. It is that \u201cextra step\u201d that our Simcenter Amesim development team decided to take in partnership with the University of Cranfield [1]. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bonding a partnership between the two entities has resulted in a new solution available in the Simcenter Amesim software. Since 2017, our teams have been collaborating to deliver a high-quality gas turbine modeling and performance simulation solution. The teams continuously update the solution to meet the ever-evolving aerospace industry challenges. The vision is to move towards a fully integrated systems simulation. Therefore, we can assess all aspects of engine-related systems including control, thermal and energy management throughout the whole operating envelope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to Helen Atkinson and Thierry Olbrechts and learn how that partnership has enabled to bring experts together and propose a solution for the future of aircraft propulsion electrification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Cranfield University | Partnering for aircraft propulsion electrification | #SimcenterAcademic\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pg_FHG6T_Lk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption> Helen Atkinson \u2013 Pro-Vice-Chancellor &#8211; Aerospace, Transport, Manufacturing at Cranfield University <br>and Thierry Olbrechts &#8211; Simcenter AS&amp;D director at Siemens Industry Software. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>You want to go deeper into details about that topic and learn about Ioannis Roumeliotis research group work?
