Conversion of data from the laser scanner to the Ansys Workbench

Abstract

This paper deals with the data processing in the form of a cloud of points scanned using a handheld 3D laser scanner. The aim of this paper is to use this data to create a representative FEM model and compare two different approaches while one of them involves creating a CAD model and the other one not. The data processing is carried out in the freeware systems MeshLab and Meshmixer and FEM analysis in the software ANSYS Workbench.

Sensitivity Optimization of Surface Acoustic Wave Yarn Tension Sensor Based on Elastic Beam Theory

“…From [ 15 , 22 ], the size of the piezoelectric substrate and the position of the interdigital transducer (IDT) are key factors affecting the sensitivity of the SAW yarn tension sensor, which are determined based on the simulation results of the finite element method (FEM) [ 23 , 24 ]. It is obvious that the sensitivity analysis of the SAW yarn tension sensor is overly dependent on the complex simulation methods.…”

Application of Reverse Engineering Technology in Part Design for Shipbuilding Industry

“…The reverse engineering technology is also used for supporting engineering calculations [23,25], and to obtain more accurate results in highly precise machining [26]. Its use also makes it possible to increase the accuracy of geodetic and astronomical measurements performed using radio telescopes [24] and to investigate and assess the architectonic heritage [22].…”
