1995: first libraries for fuel injection during Engineering Services projects

Considering all the possible combinations of fluid components for different applications (here injection) in various

industries (Automotive, Aeronautics, Off-Highway, Mechanical Industries, …), it appeared that a generic approach

with some basic elements to assemble would be a much more efficient approach to address any use case.



Various industries involving any kind of fluid components

Too many cases to be addressed, need

for rational and flexible approach

1995-1996: the concept of HCD (Hydraulic Component Design) was born

Benefits • Generic

• Reusable

• Efficient

Motivations • Flexible approach to model any kind of fluid components

HCD library with absolute displacement

1995: Version v0 – Alpha

HCD library with relative displacement

1996: Version v0 – Beta



Generic libraries to assemble bricks to get your physical systems

Generic elements are

used from different

categories. It’s similar

to the physical libraries

in LMS Amesim.

Bosch reference

“The collaboration with the LMS Amesim development team started in 1997”

“Siemens PLM Software has proved to be an excellent partner, one that listens

closely to Bosch’s requirements and takes them into account in the LMS

Imagine.Lab roadmap.”

“More than 300 Bosch engineers use LMS Amesim in different locations

globally to create specific components”

“LMS Amesim helps specialists to study the dynamic subsystem and system

behavior ….. Using LMS Amesim, they also validate the control strategies of

components”

“… open simulation tools are critical to avoiding what otherwise is likely to

become a time-consuming and error-prone process.”

“Another very important advantage of LMS Amesim is its strong focus on

numerical performance and robustness” https://www.plm.automation.siemens.com/CaseStudy
