Keynote: Improving Hydraulic Manifold Designs with Simulation
Duration: 11:16
In a keynote talk from the COMSOL Conference 2020 Europe, Maartje van Leuven of XCMG European Research Center GmbH discusses hydraulic manifolds, which are often used as control elements in mobile machinery. Leuven goes over how she uses simulation to gain a deeper understanding of these systems and their components.
Maartje van Leuven is a development engineer at XCMG European Research Center GmbH, where she works on simulations for construction machinery.
