“LMS durability simulation enabled Fiat
Research Center to save an estimated 200,000
dollars on the durability development of a Case
New Holland tractor and to compress the
development time with at least six months.”

! Extends stress analysis by taking into account
damage accumulation
! Identify and fix fatigue problems in a few days vs
several weeks of physical testing
! Enables what-if studies and results in a refined
analysis
! Delivers clear recommendations for guiding major
design choices
! Results in fewer iteration studies in testing
