Engineering under extreme conditions: COMSOL contributes to the Peak Evolution project
Some engineering solutions are developed for controlled environments. Others are validated at nearly 6,500 metres altitude, with temperatures ranging from +35°C to −20°C, reduced oxygen and extreme terrain. For the Peak Evolution / Project at Ojos del Salado, COMSOL contributed with integrated composite structures designed to maintain structural integrity, thermal stability and reliable performance under […]
CHASING THE PEAK arrives in Melbourne through Engineering on Screen
This August, CHASING THE PEAK, supported by COMSOL, will be presented in Melbourne, Australia, as part of the Engineering on Screen initiative. The screenings and discussions will bring together students, academics and engineering professionals to explore topics such as sustainable mobility, energy transition and technological innovation. In her message from Melbourne, Claudia Sandberg shares her […]
CHASING THE PEAK receives Best Documentary Award at the Caravan International Film Festival
Innovation is not only about developing new solutions. It is also about sharing ideas, experiences and projects that encourage future generations to think differently about mobility and engineering. CHASING THE PEAK, supported by COMSOL, continues to demonstrate that engineering stories can inspire audiences far beyond the technical community. Following its recognition at Engineering on Screen, […]
Engineering on Screen inspires future engineers in Chile
Engineering rarely happens under perfect conditions. The CHASING THE PEAK documentary follows the Peak Evolution expedition and the challenge of pushing technology, endurance and engineering under some of the harshest conditions on Earth — including the slopes of Ojos del Salado in Chile, the world’s highest active volcano. The reactions shown in this video were […]
COMSOL featured in Neue Mobilität by Handelszeitung
COMSOL Composites AG is featured in the latest edition of Neue Mobilität, published in Handelszeitung (print and ePaper). The article presents our integrated sandwich technology developed for the Terren project at Ojos del Salado, where structural lightweight engineering enabled a vehicle to reach 6,510 meters above sea level under extreme environmental conditions. High-performance composites are […]
COMSOL composite technology featured in Terren Magazine
From engineering concept to real-world recognition. The Terren expedition vehicle demonstrates how advanced composite engineering enables lightweight yet highly robust structures for demanding environments. The project was recently featured in Terren magazine, highlighting how composite sandwich structures contributed to significantly reducing the vehicle’s structural weight while maintaining the strength required for extreme conditions. Projects like […]
COMSOL at AERO Friedrichshafen
