Next-gen vehicle networks design simplified
Mentor has helped China Euro Vehicle Technology AB (CEVT) dramatically speed and simplify the design of its sophisticated, next-gen in-vehicle networks. Combining Mentor’s Volcano VSA COM Designer network design tool with SystemWeaver information management tools from Systemite AB, CEVT has replaced time-consuming manual tasks with a fully automated process, resulting in a 50% time reduction in the design and verification of end-solutions.
GM throwing shade at Tesla's self-driving capabilities
The act of publicly insulting a rival can be an art form unto itself. For example,Dorothy Parker once wrote of Audrey Hepburn's acting: 'Miss Hepburn ran the whole gamut of emotions - from A to B'. Then there's football coach Steve Spurrier, who once said of a rival coach, 'I saw a story saying Jim Haslett comes in at 4:30 every morning. That's not doing him much good'.

Thermal management support for electric and hybrid vehicles
In order to include thermal management solutions for batteries in electric and hybrid electric vehicles (BEV/PHEV), Parker Chomerics has extended its range of products for the automotive sector.Electric vehicles have significantly larger battery packs than those with conventional engines. These generate a considerable amount of heat that must be dissipated. Left unchecked, excessive heat can cause faster battery wear, reduced performance (due to ...

A course developed by the University of Salford, aimed at tackling critical skills shortages, has just enrolled a group of engineers from Siemens.Designed in a partnership with Siemens to meet a growing skills gap in industry, the BEng (Hons) Control and Automation degree will have a flexible delivery model to suit industry needs and minimise time off the job. It includes content developed and delivered by Siemens, as well as expertise and knowle...
ATEX certification supports motor use in explosive environments
The P1V-A Series of reversible air motors from Parker Hannifin has been expanded with additional power ratings, including models with ATEX certification that is well suited for use in explosive environment applications.
Thermal compound enables controlled dispensing for power supplies
A division of Parker Hannifin, Chomerics Europe,has introduced its TC50 high performance thermal compound for conducting heat between hot electronic components and heatsinks or enclosures. Importantly, the heavy paste-like consistency of this one-component, RoHS compliant product can be easily dispensed in a controlled manner to produce different thicknesses in line with specific application requirements.TC50 provides low thermal impedance at mul...
PAC Terminal to support latest motion control applications
The Electromechanical and Drives Division of Parker Hannifin, has announced the release of the PAC Terminal (PT). The PT is a thin client Human Machine Interface (HMI) developed to work seamlessly with the Parker Automation Controller (PAC).
How to achieve effective thermal management for EV batteries
With the growing demand for battery electric vehicles (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), dissipating battery heat and providing protection against electrical interference have never been more pertinent.According to the ‘European Vehicle Market Statistics Pocketbook 2016/17’, which is published annually by the International Council of Clean Transportation (ICCT), electric vehicles already comprise 1.5% of all new car sa...
Coding for equity
Sitting down with KatieZutter the day a Google engineer was fired for writing that women are biologically less fit to work in tech — the latest flare-up involving issues of gender bias in the industry — could have been awkward.But the controversy didn’t throw the senior majoring in computer sciences and Spanish. To the contrary, inequities in tech only fuel her to push for change. ByKatie Vaughn, University of Wisconsin-Madison
