As the shift toward next-generation mobility accelerates, the automotive industry faces a wide range of challenges including electrification, weight reduction, ADAS integration, and sustainability.
In this highly uncertain market environment, we contribute to enhancing our clients’ product competitiveness by providing structural design services utilizing Nature Architects’ proprietary design technologies.
We propose optimal designs that balance high energy absorption during collisions, weight reduction, and miniaturization across vehicle structural architecture development, structural components, battery casings, heat exchangers, and chassis-related parts.
By combining appropriate CAE analyses from full-vehicle models to component-level models, we achieve client-optimized structures while reducing the number of prototypes and lead times.
With design capabilities that balance development speed, performance, and cost, we support transformation for our clients in the automotive industry.
Collision Safety Performance Improvement Solutions
Due to increased vehicle weight from electrification, expanded interior space to enhance vehicle value, and stricter regulations and ratings worldwide, the design of collision safety performance has become significantly more challenging.
In this increasingly challenging design environment, we provide design solutions for vehicle architectures and structural components that achieve narrow stroke and appropriate load characteristics, realizing structures with highly efficient collision safety performance.
Thermal Management Solutions
As the powertrain shifts from engines to eAxles and batteries, systems for managing thermal energy within the vehicle are becoming increasingly advanced.
Within this context, we contribute to further improving thermal transfer efficiency of powertrain modules and the miniaturization and integration of module components through our proprietary structural design technologies.
NVH Management Solutions
As vehicle architectures and powertrains evolve with electrification, changes are occurring in the vibration transmission paths and frequency bands related to automotive NVH.
Within this context, we contribute to enhancing ride comfort—which directly impacts product competitiveness—through our proprietary design technologies that include vibration mode control, detuning of component natural frequencies, and appropriate vibration isolation techniques along vibration transmission paths.
Industrial Design Solutions
While improvements in vehicle performance remain essential, differentiation through exterior design—which directly impacts product appeal—has become increasingly important for automakers.
Within this context, we leverage a range of solutions, including our proprietary design technologies, to achieve exterior design aesthetics that may trade off with functionality, thereby contributing to the realization of each automaker’s unique design identity.
Regulatory Compliance Solutions for Various Countries (NCAP)
As vehicle regulations become increasingly stringent across regions such as North America, Europe, and China, automakers are required to develop diverse product and design strategies to comply with these regulations and various rating systems.
Within this context, we leverage our proprietary design technologies to clarify the trade-offs between regulatory compliance and cost, providing design support to automakers in formulating their product and design strategies, thereby aiding their decision-making processes.
Various Advanced Development Support
With the rise of Chinese automakers, competition in the automotive industry has become fierce, increasing the uncertainty surrounding the technologies that should be incorporated into future vehicles.
In this context, we accelerate the early-stage development of automakers and support their unique technological innovations through our proprietary design technologies.
Leveraging origami engineering, metamaterials, and other advanced academic fields, we address a broad spectrum from future automotive manufacturing methods to the realization of next-generation vehicle functionalities.
