Application Brief
A Workflow Combining Ansys Sherlock, Icepak, Mechanical and SIwave to Evaluate the Reliability of Electronic Systems in Autonomous Vehicles
This workflow shows how Ansys Sherlock, Ansys Icepak, Ansys SIwave and Ansys Mechanical can be used to mitigate certain failure risks of printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA) within an autonomous vehicle. We will explain the workflow using a hypothetical project involving a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) mounted on top of a vehicle in an aluminum chassis within a larger housing. In this outline, we will use the Intel Galileo board, an open-source PCBA.
