The NolanGroup is a Mid-Cap Italian company that are one of the leading manufacturers of motorcycle helmets worldwide. Nolan produces helmets for professional, leisure and racing activities, participating in the main international motorcycle competitions. Nolan wants to enhance its helmet design capabilities to reduce costs and time to market through the use of advanced HPC-based simulation.Nolan have only recently introduced a simulation-based approach using CASCo to simulate external aerodynamics, thermal effects, acoustics, and impacts of its helmet designs.
The CASCo Multiphysics platform has been ported to an HPC system. This enables detailed models to be simulated in a simple way by those not expert in the underlying physics. This has involved the enhancement and customisation of GUIs, workflows and file formats, and the development of the interface with an HPC scheduler system. These enhancements have achieved the aim of allowing non-experts to perform detailed simulations and to make their results easily accessible and in a much shorter timescale.
