These CAE services are supported by suitable simu~lation soft~ware tools („**Virtual Engineer~ing**“). My major **CAE analyses** are dedicated to the following studies: - **TORSIONAL VIBRATION ANALYSIS **of complete drive systems - **LATERAL + FLEXURAL VIBRATION ANALYSIS (ROTOR DYNAMIC ANALYSIS) **of shaft systems ![](https://dev.laschet.com/wp-content/uploads/Vibrations-300x199.jpg) Vibrations (c) AdobeStock Such jobs can be done very quickly in smaller projects but also as part of com~prehensive **CAE studies** within R&D or virtual engineer~ing projects – always according to customer require~ments. Confidentiality agreements are, of course, strictly observed. - **CAE model generation** of complete drive~lines (generating digital computer models supported by power~ful soft~ware tools: ARLA-SIMUL, ITI-SIM, SimulationX, ARMD) - **CAE analysis** (simulation) including evaluations - working out alternative system con~figurations (**drive~line matching**) - **trouble~shooting** (in case of failures), root cause analysis (RCA), support of machine diagnosis, expert reports - summary of **improve~ment activities**, para~meter studies, optimi~zations - **inter~pretation**, overall evaluation, and documen~tation of the results including testing methods, and measure~ment results as part of the final evaluation - **technical report** in English (or German) language (also as a brief report) - further **customer consult~ing** on site or via video-audio-conferences - **training offer**: customized trainings (PDF info: [Engineering Training Programs](https://dev.laschet.com/wp-content/uploads/AL-Engineering-Training-Programs_EN.pdf)), or general training courses, or annual [international engineering seminars](/en/seminars/) - **worldwide engineering service** using online communications ([online meetings](/en/contact/online-meetings/)) ![](https://dev.laschet.com/wp-content/uploads/Online-Communication.jpg) Engineering Network – Online Communication (c) AdobeStock ## Application Areas ### Industrial Engineering, Automotive, Shipbuilding, Aviation + Aerospace Based on considerable experiences for more than 40 years many jobs could be realized with great success as part of a virtual product develop~ment process.
