Hexathron Racing Systems’s modeling and simulation department develops specialized models to accurately represent suspension components, vehicle inertia, powertrain characteristics, aerodynamics and any vehicle subsystem, taking into account complex behaviours of elements such as dampers, bushings, tires and the flexibility of any component. Through these models, our vehicle dynamics engineers provide objective evaluation and prediction of vehicle behaviour and suspension performance in every possible condition, cutting out the heavy costs of on track testing.
CAPABILITIES
ITERATIVE DESIGN OF EXPERIMENTS APPROACH
VIRTUAL 7-POST RIG
DATABASE APPLICATIONS, MATLAB APPLICATIONS AND GUI DEVELOPMENT
APPLICATIONS
KINEMATIC ANALYSIS OF EXISTING OR NEW SUSPENSION LAYOUTS
DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF VEHICLES FROM RACE DATA
SET-UP VARIABLES SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
REVERSE ENGINEERING OF SETUPS
Our racing programs require a relentless dedication to improvement in order to maintain an advantage over the competition. This philosophy makes Hexathron Racing Systems a powerful specialized partner.
Filling the gap between objective simulation and in-vehicle subjective evaluations, Hexathron’s DIL simulator enable real-time ‘driver-in-the-loop’ feedback in a controlled environment. Our dynamic models take into account every single aspect of a race car, from pitch sensitive aeromaps to thermo-mechanical tire models.
