VI-grade and its partner for Spain, Analisis y Simulacion, invite you to the VI-grade Vehicle Dynamics Seminar to take place naerby Barcelona, Spain on July 7th, 2009. This is a unique opportunity to learn more about VI-grade solutions for vehicle dynamics from conceptual phase to refinement stage and to the chase for best dynamic performance of your vehicle.
During the seminar you will have the possibility to see how the entire vehicle development process, from concept to sign-off, can be performed with only one virtual vehicle model. Activities like vehicle dynamics, ride, fuel consumption estimation, DOE and optimization, control system development, hardware-in-the-loop and human-in-the-loop can be done now using solutions provided by VI-grade.
In the second part of the seminar you will have the opportunity to follow a live demonstration on how to use VI-grade products to build and analyze your vehicle model, as well as individual hands on experience using the software with the assistance of VI-grade staff.

VI-grade is pleased to invite you and your team to participate in the VI-grade Virtual Formula 2009 competition. A competition that is build upon the rules and regulations of the Formula SAE and Formula Student. Here you can …
...take the Lead and Win the Race!
The competition promotes careers and excellence in engineering. Teams use modern CAD and CAE tools, physical prototypes, and analysis to develop their designs. Now, more than ever, automotive manufacturers are embracing simulation and other “virtual” approaches to develop their ideas, compare concepts, and test their designs in the virtual world, so they know it works in the real world. This virtual approach is proven again and again to cut costs, speed development, and design better products.
VI-grade, a global leader in providing simulation tools to the racing and production automotive markets, launched the VI-grade Virtual Formula to assist students in developing their designs, but also inject fun and competition using the virtual world!
The Challenge
Optimize the performance of a virtual race car and minimize the lap time. Competition will be won by the team able to provide back to VI-grade the vehicle with the shortest laptime on the given autocross circuit.
The Tools
For the competition you will need the following products, which can be downloaded for free:
VI-CarRealTime
VI-SuspensionGen
VI-Road
VI-Animator
VI-DriverR
The Prize
2 years university license of VI-CarRealTime
Free participation at the next VI-grade User’s Conference
Dynamic simulation is used by the most successful automotive and motorcycle companies as well as racing teams to dramatically improve their vehicle performance before they take the first test lap. VI-grade invites you to the Vehicle Dynamics Seminar to learn how VI-grade products for dynamic simulation are used now in the industry to improve the product design and in F1, NASCAR, IRL, motoGP, SBK and other racing leagues by teams looking to gain a competitive edge.
