She has prior experience in simulation in the automotive industry and in plastics. Solving problems and celebrating small wins keep her motivated. She has a broad look at engineering and wants to understand the complete context of a problem, not only the engineering part of it, also economic aspects and the impact it has for the end-user have her interest. She spends her free time learning Dutch and gardening.
celebrating team spirit
We had an exciting day as we welcomed our colleagues from India to our office. The energy was good while we gathered for lunch and went for a fascinating tour through the Philips Museum, where we delved into the history of Eindhoven city. And we tested our teamwork with an escape room challenge! The day concluded with a nice dinner and engaging conversations.
At Code PS, we believe that a strong team spirit and supportive work environment drives innovation. Events like these remind us of the talent and dedication within our team, transcending borders and embracing diversity.
welcome Jerôme
This is Jerôme, the most recent addition to the team who started working on finite element simulations for high tech systems. "Working on a large machine model with several different bodies, enforces you to stay focused on every small model component. This is a challenge with a lot of puzzle-pieces, but is rewarding whenever results are starting to make sense. These simulation challenges, together with the flat company organization at CodePS, makes for a refreshing working environment." Besides simulations, Jerôme spends his spare time on DIY projects and is occasionally defying mountains on his bike.
engineering automation saves you time
Did you know that a large portion of a CAE Engineer's time is spent on repetitive and tedious tasks such as reporting and pre-processing? And these tasks contribute very little to one's knowledge.
With the Moldflow Toolbox, you can automate your workflow, including reporting and pre-processing. This helps you to save time and energy, and it increases the value of your work. By reducing non-value-adding time to a minimum, Moldflow Toolbox aims to improve the efficiency and quality of the project. Check out our Moldflow Toolbox page here: www.code-ps.com/toolbox

It was very nice to see their hands-on approach and mock-ups, just like we like at CodePS."
lightweight multi-material gearbox housing
A housing form aluminum overmolded with fiber reinforced plastic from Polyscope Polymers BV. With integrative simulations we ensured the best performance of both materials (with their individual thermal and mechanical properties).
We performed an injection molding simulation to identify filling or warpage risks. Afterwards we transferred the fiber orientations to a mechanical simulation analyzing the mechanical behavior of the part in a high level of detail, considering also local effects. This approach resulted in 30% less weight, 30% less emissions and a cost-effective solution.
