With cloud simulation platform, Shichuang technology supports the upgrading of "China smart manufacturing"

 

Made in China is going to “ Zhi Zhi ” Transformation and upgrading , The commanding point is the intelligent product design based on high-performance modeling and simulation , But as the core of industrial software, R & D and design software , especially CAE Software , Very weak foundation , Still Chinese “ Necking Technology ” One of .

 

CAE namely Computer Aided Engineering, It refers to computer aided engineering in engineering design , The main purpose is to reduce the cost of product R & D in the manufacturing industry , Improve the success rate and efficiency of product R & D .

 

Take the die casting process of new energy vehicles as an example , At present, the complexity and integration of auto parts are becoming higher and higher , Different materials 、 structure 、 Parameter design may lead to different final production results , By setting the material property parameters （ Such as viscosity ）、 temperature 、 Initial conditions （ Such as speed 、 pressure ）、 The boundary conditions （ Slip 、 No slip 、 Mirror image 、 symmetry ） Input computer aided engineering software , It can automatically calculate and simulate whether the current design scheme can meet the production demand , Avoid the huge cost waste caused by repeated mold trial .

 

The more complex the components of the equipment are , The requirements for production technology are also higher . Only by ensuring that every fine part is delivered with high quality , In order to have the birth of a qualified new energy vehicle . The computer aided engineering platform of Shichuang technology can provide simulation and intelligent design services for this link .

 

Shichuang is an industrial digital research enterprise with algorithm as its core competitiveness , Mainly invested in computer-aided engineering (CAE)、 Automatic defect identification and intelligent design , It serves high-end manufacturing enterprises . As the first batch of start-up enterprises to do industrial simulation software in China ,2021 year 12 month , Shichuang technology has obtained the special and new qualification of Beijing .

 

Born in the cloud 、 Longer than clouds , All businesses of Shichuang technology are deployed on the cloud , In order to better serve our customers , Shichuang technology chose Alibaba cloud, which is widely distributed in China .

 

As the underlying infrastructure of simulation business , High performance computing platform requires high performance , Alibaba cloud's self-developed dragon architecture realizes the performance of high-performance computing on the cloud . meanwhile , The simulation demand of manufacturing industry mostly follows the project cycle , The platform needs to be quickly created and released according to the customer needs of Shichuang , The demand for resources is very elastic and volatile . Alibaba cloud high performance computing platform （EHPC） The auto scaling function of can take advantage of the elasticity of the cloud , Automatically manage computing resources based on job load , Shichuang technology does not need to manage the scale of resources by itself , Reduced operation and maintenance costs .

 

In addition to the favorable support of cloud base architecture for Shichuang , Alibaba cloud high performance computing technology experts learned that there are CAE After the enterprise develops the solver , Extremely agree with its career direction , Many door-to-door technical exchanges to accurately locate the performance and business pain points on the calculation side , Finally, a kind of out of the box MPI Application submission execution framework , It improves the application delivery efficiency of Shichuang technology .

 

In order to ensure the platform customer experience , The underlying resources need to be delivered and migrated quickly , Shichuang technology chose E-HPC High performance computing container （eStack） Software deployment , Integrate complex development and application software stack integration deployment with mature high-performance computing scheduling , Realize application and R & D 、 One time integrated deployment of business software .

 

Thanks to the accumulation of cloud computing for more than ten years , Alibaba cloud's rich product stack has become the basis for customer growth , especially Elastic high-performance computing platform based on DPCA architecture , It provides an efficient and stable production base for Shichuang technology , The efficient and robust high-performance computing services available at once enable Shichuang technology to safely and boldly provide simulation services . The two work together , Support the transformation and upgrading of China's intelligent manufacturing .
