While not everyone may think of bicycles as high-tech products, bike design involves complex physics and frequently unknown interactions among multiple physical phenomena. A key challenge is the tradeoff between aerodynamic efficiency optimization and comfort and ride quality. Aerodynamic bikes are traditionally known for their harsh rides and poor handling, Trek notes.
Build or Buy a Thermal Simulation Solution? Costs of Each Approach
There is a tipping point engineering teams can reach with internal thermal simulation capabilities. Product complexity or high accuracy demands may have begun to outpace…
