Headphone Analysis & Optimization
Non-linear performance of headband designs can be analyzed using tools such as Abaqus and LS Dyna
Analysis can provide results for the following critical design areas
Headband shape under deflection
Ear cup position under deflection
Force imparted on head at various deflection points
Stresses throughout head phone assembly
Focused analysis can prevent:
Poor design decisions
Field failures
Bad tooling design
Increased BOM costs

Device Failure Analysis Methodology
Device drop impact may be simulated from standard device testing heights (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 m)
All standard drop orientations can be simulated
Face, Corner, Edge
Primary Benefits Evaluate structural integrity of basic architecture
Identify high stress/yield areas
Observe relative motion between parts
Common Focus Areas Speaker Drivers
LCD Glass/Drivers
PWB ASICs
Snap & Screw Boss interfaces
PWB components w/minimal clearances

Thermal Analysis Simulation of product device testing
parameters
Steady State & Transient Response Analysis
Evaluation of product ability to meet ‘safety’ and ‘comfort’ level for external surfaces
Analysis of heat generating components and optimized thermal path ways
Evaluation of potential solutions based on cost and effectiveness

Moldflow Simulation
Mold flow simulations performed with Moldex 3D software.
Moldex 3D simulations can provide the following outputs: Fill animations
Weld line locations
Clamping force
Shear stress
Warpage
Temperatures
Fill time
Velocity
Results can be used to optimize gate locations and enhance part/tool design approach
