Gamma Technologies Inc. (GTI) develops and commercially licenses a
suite of CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) engine simulations, under the name of GT-SUITE.
These tools are specifically designed for applications in the engine, powertrain and
vehicle industries. In addition to supplying software products, GTI provides user
support and training and carries out general consulting projects using its proprietary
CAE tools.
We are dedicated to building the most advanced engine and vehicle
simulation tools. Furthermore, we endeavor to provide major productivity improvements
for our customers through carefully designed software solutions.
We invite you to have a look at GT-SUITE. We are confident, that once
you experience its features and capabilities, you will appreciate the advantages
it can bring to you.
Dr. Thomas Morel - President
2006
- GTI establishes its first European office, headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany
- GTI hosts 10th annual European GT-SUITE Conference in Frankfurt Germany. Record attendance of over 130 engineers from engine OEM's and suppliers from throughout Europe. Presentations were given by customers from BMW, Renault Formula 1, GM, Mann+Hummel, MAN B&W, Prodrive, FEV, and Torino Polytechnic.
- Version 6.2 of GT-SUITE is released, and includes unprecedented capabilities in commercially available engine simulation software. The latest version includes a complete chemistry and exhaust aftertreatment library, 3-D CAD based model builders and discretizers for intake systems, exhaust systems, and cooling modules, and a three pressure heat release analysis capability that integrates GT-SUITE with the test cell.
- Mahle Powertrain Brazil named representative of GT-SUITE for Brazil
2005
- First GT-SUITE Conference in China (adding to those in Japan and Korea
- Added Renault VI as a customer, and with this important step now all US and European truck makers use GT-POWER
- During the year the customer count has increased, to reach over 250. Over 30 new customers signed up for GT-SUITE, among them Aprilia, Mark IV, Nissan Europe, Renault VI (part of Volvo Truck), Skoda, Siemens, Komatsu and Kubota.
- Cummins and GTI demonstrated the use of GT-SUITE for Real-Time simulations, in a presentation given by Cummins at the GT-SUITE Conference in Dearborn. Examples were shown of real-time "hardware in the loop" application.
- DaimlerChrysler US adopted GT-POWER for massive design optimization studies. These are run in parallel on a large network of computers to deliver rapid solutions. This work utilizes methodologies for distributed runs and for optimization which are built-in directly in GT-SUITE and require no third party products to operate. This work was presented at the GT-SUITE Conference in Dearborn.
- BMW and GTI teamed up to develop a new automated capability in GT-POWER to analyze engine cylinder pressures acquired in tests to derive accurate rate of burn. This new capbility is a further step by GTI in its work on integration of test and simulation.
2004
- GTI marks its 10th anniversary (est. 1994).
- GTI expanded offices 20 percent.
- Our customer base grew to over 220; and among others we added: Faurecia, ExxonMobil, Nissan NA, SEAT, Mecaplast, J. Eberspaecher, VM Motori, Hyundai US, Perkins, Siemens and Bentley.
- An Illinois state court jury ruled on August 31, 2004 against Fawzan Alsharif, Business Development Manager of Ricardo Software in a lawsuit over untrue and defamatory e-mails. The evidence showed that Alsharif had fabricated and sent defamatory e-mails under an assumed name, after concluding that he needed to "smear" Dr. Morel's reputation in order for Ricardo Software to be able to compete with Gamma Technologies for sales of automotive software products.
- GT-SUITE Version 6.1 was released, bring new capabilities like AutoDOE optimizer and DOE tool, 3-D manifold discretization tool, built-in KIVA 3-D CFD, distributed computing, neural network calibration.
- BMW announced that the car manufacturer will be fully migrating to Gamma's GT-POWER and GT-SUITE and adopt these as their engine simulation and design tools.
2003
- GTI and Wisconsin Engine Research Consultants, LLC (WERC) announced an integrated product that combines GT-SUITE with WERC-KIVA 3-D combustion models. WERC principals include world-class authorities on diesel combustion modeling, Prof. Rolf Reitz and Prof. Chris Rutland.
- Launch of GT-SUITE Version 6.0 containing a single integrated solver executable with enhanced system modeling capability and a new GT-POWER RT for real time "hardware in the loop" testing. In addition, the graphical interfaces for pre- and post-processing (GT-ISE and GT-POST) has been completely re-designed and re-written.
- Renault S.A. adopts GT-POWER for engine simulations
2002
