Möbius – Robust Generative Design Software

Rafinex SARL

Hall 6 - E119
Luxembourg
Get superior performance at minimal weight. Stochastic optimization algorithms ensure your designs are formally robust and fit for any situation. Anticipating real-life variability effects makes your designs more resilient and durable because they do not exhibit stress hot spots when deployed in the field while having innate robust resilience built in against damage. When Möbius is applied early in the process, it allows you to navigate the critical path throughout the engineering process.

Innovation character

Rafinex' stochastic topology optimization algorithms are a merger of classical topology optimization with the field of Uncertainty Quantification, which is largely used in aerospace and finance to quantify risk. Hence, the novelty includes that the stochastic topology optimizer is a risk-aware design tool which not only maximizes performance, but also maximizes resilience.

Potential for evolution

The proposed optimization algorithms are being extended to run on High-Performance-Clusters in order to be able to optimize not just individual components but entire assemblies of components concurrently. Moreover, additional material types (e.g. composites) and manufacturing process rules are being added to the design optimizer.

Energetic transition

The stochastic topology optimizer makes design optimization robust & reliable, thus enabling systematic lightweighting of vehicles. The resulting sustainability impacts range from raw material savings to fuel energy savings to payload efficiency gains.
