During the MBS Tech Days 2021, Bjorn van Uem from Jaguar Land Rover held a presentation titled " Simpack Wizard at JLR: Methods Development and Durability and Robustness Programme Support".

In his presentation Bjorn gives an overview of how Simpack Wizard is used at JLR across many departments, from vehicle dynamics to NVH, to standardize simulation methods and work with a single model concept built and released by a central team. The Durability and Robustness team's Virtual Road Load data process was presented as an example of vehicle program support.

Below you can see the presentation he held during the event.

@Bjorn van Uem is a well-known multi-body dynamics and vehicle dynamics expert within the automotive and motor racing industry. He holds more than 15 years of experience in multi-body simulation for a broad range of applications, such as ride comfort, handling, durability, powertrain, driveline, integration with control systems, and driving simulators. 
Bjorn joined Jaguar Land Rover in 2015 as an MBS Development Group Leader and moved in 2019 to his current role, Manager – MBS Cluster & D&R CAE.

In his current role, he is now responsible for standardizing, advancing, and rolling out MBS simulation across many departments within Jaguar Land Rover to improve the efficiency of the product development process and facilitate well-informed engineering decisions.

Further, he is responsible for the vehicle program simulation support for Loads (MBS), Wading (CFD), and Underfloor Vulnerability (FE). Before joining JLR, Bjorn worked as a Mechanical Simulation Engineer at Mercedes AMG HPP, Brixworth, and a Technical Director at SIMPACK UK, Leicester.
