AN INTEGRATED INTELLIGENCE DEVELOPMENT DESIGN CAE MODEL UTILIZING NEW JIT: APPLICATION TO AUTOMOTIVE HIGH RELIABILITY ASSURANCE

Abstract

With a view to assisting corporations to survive in the "worldwide quality competition", the author has proposed the "Integrated Intelligence Development Design CAE Model" utilizing New JIT. This model consists of the "Total Quality Assurance (QA) High Cycle-ization Business Process System", the "Stratified Intelligence CAE Management System", and the "Intelligence CAE Development Design Approarch System". In an effort to verify the validity of this model, the author has analyzed an issue of worldwide concern, the oil seal leakage mechanism on an automobile transaxle with the cooperation of the Toyota and NOK, and has created the "Intelligence CAE Software-Oil Leakage Simulator" that incorporates CG Navigation in order to ensure "high reliability assurance of the automotive transaxle".

High Precision CAE Analysis of Automotive Transaxle Oil Seal Leakage

“…Accuracy is ensured, and the time integration method, space difference method, and precession method are used as computer technologies to calculate in a realistic timeframe. Each of the above elements is used to construct the oil seal simulator (Amasaka, 2008;Amasaka, Tsubaki, Ymaji, & Ueno, 2009;Leo, Annos, & Oscarsson, 2004;Mitsuhashi, Takeoka, Tanabe, Yamaji, & Amasaka, 2007;Nozawa, Yamashita, & Amasaka, 2011).…”

“…The real technical mechanism issue is not precisely capture. Therefore, it is important to clarify the real cause in CAE results through numerical simulation (CAE analysis) in order to assure product reliability and assurance (Amasaka, 2008).…”

Constructing A New Japanese Development Design Model “NJ-DDM”

“…A new area of interest in the study of development design to win the "worldwide quality competition" is the shift of business process management from "experimental evaluation based on tests and prototypes" to "predictive evaluation based on highly reliable CAE analysis" [1,2].…”

“…To be specific, NJ-DDM consists of Total QA (Quality Assurance) High Cyclization Business Process Model, Total Intelligence CAE Management Model, Highly Reliable CAE Analysis Technology Component Model, and Total Intelligence CAE Approarch Model [1][2][3][4][5].…”

CAE Analysis for Oil Leakage Mechanism of Transaxle Oil Seal

“…[1,2] In order to realize them, Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) plays an important role. [3] However, in the design of parts such as oil seals, quality improvement is slow in relation to the reduction of development periods. One of the reasons is believed to be that mechanisms of parts were not incorporated into CAE [4,5].…”
