Japanese tire manufacturer boosts simulation workloads with 3X
faster performance in its latest high performance computing
environment, delivered through HPE GreenLake cloud
Hewlett Packard Enterprise (NYSE: HPE) today announced that Toyo
Tire Corporation selected HPE to deliver its seventh generation
high performance computing (HPC) system, which is three times more
powerful than its predecessor, as a-service through HPE GreenLake
cloud. The upgraded system and boosted performance accelerate
time-to-market for next-generation tires by processing structural
tire data quickly and with greater precision. The expanded
computational power significantly reduces the time required for
complex and parameter-rich large-scale design simulations that Toyo
Tire utilizes to train its AI models.
“Toyo Tire continues to demonstrate innovation in tire
engineering and development using high performance computing,” said
Hirokazu Mochizuki, senior vice president and managing director for
HPE Japan. “We are pleased to collaborate with Toyo Tire and
strengthen its digitized development with powerful HPE Cray
performance delivered via HPE GreenLake cloud. The latest solution
provides Toyo Tire an optimal level of performance, in a flexible
environment, to support a new era of innovation, with speed and
efficiency.”
The latest advancements allow Toyo Tire to stay ahead of market
needs to innovate new generations of tires that address global
trends, including transitions to electric vehicles (EVs) and
overall improvement to performance and features to minimize
environmental impact across fuel consumption, noise levels, wear
resistance and load-bearing capacity.
“As the automotive industry accelerates its digital
transformation and increasingly moves towards simulation instead of
prototyping and performance evaluation testing, automakers are
increasingly requesting mathematical models of tires which is a
faster, more cost efficient and sustainable process,” said Tamotsu
Mizutani, Corporate Officer and Division General Manager,
Technology Development Division of Toyo Tire. “This requires
numerical models of the tire and our new HPC system will advance
this move towards digitized simulation. Our design engineers are
excited about the enhanced capabilities of the system, and we are
looking forward to accelerating the training of our AI models.”
Toyo Tire worked with a team of HPE experts on TOYO-FEM, one of
its critical in-house computer-aided engineering (CAE)
applications, to optimize its computing resources. The team
significantly improved the application's performance by nearly
three times, enabling more designers to run simulations
simultaneously. The time required to simulate a large-scale design
combining multiple design parts is reduced up to one-half or less
compared to the previous system. The optimization has also
substantially improved Toyo Tire's deep learning inverse problem
solver, which relies on analysis from simulations to formulate
next-generation design specifications such as tire structure, shape
and patterns.
Toyo Tire selected HPE GreenLake cloud to capitalize on a fully
managed, end-to-end solution for its large-scale HPC system, which
leverages HPE Cray XD systems, to gain flexibility to significantly
upgrade its HPC resources and enable more access to designers.
The HPE GreenLake cloud delivers a modern cloud experience,
including managed infrastructure, consumption analytics and
predictable economics that streamlines IT and business operations.
In addition, the HPE Cray XD systems deliver expanded performance
with higher density, allowing Toyo Tire to maximize its data center
space with existing resources.
