Explore the Future of Systems Simulation


 The GT Tech Summit returns to Chennai on 27 July,  bringing together engineers, simulation specialists, and technical leaders for a full day of applied learning and peer exchange. This year's programme goes deeper into the technologies reshaping product development: from GT Intelligence Studio's AI-driven workflows and GT-Play's cloud-based collaboration environment, to
GT-AutoLion's 1D/3D/4D battery simulation and more.

What to Expect

Sessions cover the engineering challenges at the centre of industry's transition with technical depth across:

  • Electrified Powertrain Development: Accelerating xEV programmes through GT-DRIVE+ vehicle modelling, system integration, and model-based controls development
  • Battery Simulation & Cell Modelling: Electrochemical performance, degradation, thermal runaway, and safety analysis using GT-AutoLion
  • GT Intelligence Studio: AI-assisted simulation workflows, machine learning model integration, and intelligent automation for faster development cycles
  • Thermal & Energy Management: Full-system thermal modelling across powertrains, battery packs, HVACR, and cabin environments
  • Hydrogen & Future Powertrains: Simulation of H2-ICE, fuel cell systems, and fuel reformer technologies supporting the path to net-zero
  • Cloud Collaboration with GT-Play: Enterprise-scale simulation access, cross-department co-simulation, and team-wide model deployment
  • Multi-Industry Applications: Physics-based simulation across aerospace (eVTOL), HVACR, off-highway, marine, and renewable energy storage
  •  Aftertreatment solutions: Understand the xCHEM capabilities for evaporative emission simulation process, Hybrid EATs modeling and end-to-end solution for SGB testing and model calibration 
  •  Gamma Tech Engineering Services: Learn about the global customer success stories, discuss with our expert about the methodology establishment for integrated VTMS, XiL and cloud deployment for democratization
