Case Study: Column Shifter Boot • Business:
Automotive supplier
• Challenge: Accelerate the boot development to satisfy the requirements of OEMs by evaluating more design variants in less time
• Solution: Design variants are studied with Marc to predict the tear areas. For some design variants the analysis results are verified with tests
• Value: A boot design that meets the OEMs requirement was found in less time at less cost

Elasto-plastic materials are defined by two mechanical
behaviors: elastic and plastic
Nonlinear constitutive laws are defined above the yield
stress
In the plastic regime, there are irreversible strains
