About this event
Composite Structural Parts into Mass Production for Automotive Applications
Based on a Lightweight Crashbox and Bumper Beam case study, this webinar will cover 3 topics around Valeo “Organosheet” composite material:
- PROCESS: How Valeo succeeded in developing composite structural parts for mass production.
- PROPERTIES: How the material’s properties fit energy absorption requested for crash, despite more and more stringent specifications, while offering significant weight reduction
- METHODOLOGY: An overview of Valeo composite & crash simulation methodologies whose reliability and predictability accelerate time-to-market of our applications.
Valeo composite experts, Sergio Da Costa Pito and Ali Kezmane will be then available for a Q&A session.
Speakers
Sergio DA COSTA PITO, Structural Components R&D Manager and Composite Materials Coordinator @ Valeo Thermal Systems
After an experience as Project Manager at Faurecia, Sergio joined Valeo as Structural Components Manager. He graduated from CESI Engineer School in Paris. Sergio and his team developed and industrialized the first composite bolster for mass production.
Ali KEZMANE, Mechanics Design Leader Simulation @ Valeo Thermal Systems
After a PhD on Material & Structure at Mouloud Mammeri University Algeria, and Structural Composite Master at Ecole Centrale Nantes, Ali joined Valeo as Simulation Engineer. He developed key composite and crash simulation methodologies.
