Abstract: This presentation highlights the application of Altair’s software suite in the kinematic analysis and modeling of the HERMES EXO robotic exoskeleton. Using advanced simulation tools, the team performs comprehensive studies of motion behavior, evaluates load distribution through dynamic simulations, and applies finite element analysis to ensure structural integrity under real-world conditions. Altair solutions enable accurate data extraction, performance optimization, and iterative design refinement, supporting a holistic research and development process. By integrating these tools into multiple stages of the project, the HERMES Team accelerates innovation, enhances reliability, and advances the development of a fully functional robotic exoskeleton for human mobility assistance.
About the Team: The HERMES Team, a student research team in Greece under the University of Thessaly, develops a robotic exoskeleton for individuals with Spinal Cord Injury. Representing Greece in CYBATHLON’s “Exoskeleton Race,” the team promotes assistive technologies, enhancing mobility and quality of life, supported by the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Abstract: Our FSAE team utilized Altair’s simulation tools—including crash, composites, optimization, multi-body dynamics, static structural, thermal, fatigue, and modal analysis—to enhance vehicle performance and safety. Using MotionSolve, we validated the suspension with Kinematics & Compliance (K&C) analysis, extracted A-arm loads, and assessed drivetrain reliability through chain–sprocket analysis. These methods reduced weight while preserving structural integrity, helping us win the SAE SUPRA CAE Award in 2024 and 2025. This presentation highlights the benefits of Altair software, our streamlined workflow, and how advanced simulation drove innovation in our design process.
About the team: Veloce Racing India, the Formula Student team from Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, has consistently excelled in national competitions. Ranked World Rank 2 in 2023 in the Combustion vehicle category and crowned winners of SAE SUPRA in 2024 and 2025, the team leverages Altair’s advanced simulation tools to design innovative, lightweight, and high-performance vehicles.
