Abstract:

The project being introduced is a simulation of an industrial Producr Development project as a large scale student project in a university setting. The scientific goal with the project is to develop and test different management, design and engineering simulations, the practical goal however is to provide a rela-like project environment for the students, which fit to academic conditions most perfectly. The target of the development pocess is to design a fully electric sports car. The outcome of the project would be a detailed Digital Moch-Up, on which Virtual Simulations will be carried out. In the paper the background necessary for establishing the process simulation will be presented, besides the successful realization will be proven by showing the recent achievements from the project. The Digital Mock-Uo is being developed by applying the Concurrent Engineering approach, the development process is closely supported by project management activities. The necessary virtual test will be carried out by university students on the specific parts of the sports car following the protocols being used in industry.The realization of a simulation project of such a complexity provides great opportunity for both students and teachers/researchers to gain invaluable knowledge and scientifically relevant findings.
