Build Safer, Lighter, More Comfortable Seats—Virtually
Seat development faces challenges in meeting safety, comfort, and weight targets under tight timelines. Structural Mechanics (VPS) enables OEMs and suppliers to virtually design, test, and pre-certify seats early in the process. Using a single core model, engineers can assess crash safety, occupant posture, and comfort—while accounting for trim manufacturing effects. This integrated approach reduces prototypes, anticipates issues, and accelerates innovation without compromising compliance.
Structural Mechanics (VPS) Enables OEMs and Suppliers
Assess all seat performances early in development for robust design decisions.
Evaluate static, dynamic, and thermal comfort using scalable human models.
Predict occupant posture and whiplash performance with embedded protocols.
Anticipate wrinkles, bridging gaps, and foam overbuild before production.
Embedded standards like Euro NCAP, SAEJ826, and aeronautic protocols for easy setup.
Quickly test variants and optimize materials, sewing lines, and assembly processes.
