CAD/CAE Integration System of Mechanical Parts

Abstract

The key technologies of CAD/CAM integration of mechanical parts which include parametric modeling technology, model transformation of CAD/CAE and finite element modeling were studied. Based on redevelopment of UG, the process of parametric modeling about typical part was achieved. The identification, selection, extraction, and removal of the details in the CAD model were analyzed. The extraction approach of the mid-surface in the dimensional reduction of the CAD model was executed. The CAD/CAE integration system of the design and finite element analysis for mechanical parts was established by the redevelopment of UG and ANSYS with Visual C++, UG/Open and APDL as tools. The parametric design and automatic finite element analysis for mechanical parts were implemented.

Integrated Design Method and Experimental Study for the Safety Performance Analysis of Nuclear Power Valve

“…And then XML drive the analysis template to transmit design model from CAD to CAE. It eventually would form the product reuse model of finite element analysis [8][9][10] . In ANSYS environment, for instance, the generation of FEA reuse model is to compile the command files of FEA using ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL).…”

Research on FE Modeling Common Method and Integration System for Nuclear Power Valve

“…Especially under leakage of nuclear power station in Japan, there is important realistic significance to improve design ability of nuclear power valves and product performance. The most of nuclear power valve design at home is given priority to with deformation design, namely, according to the customer's individuation demand with reference to the original mature products, a new type of nuclear power valve products is usually designed by the retrofit design on the basis of the introduced mature technology [4][5][6].…”
