Product Design Optimization through Seamless Integration of CAD and CAE

Integration of CAD / CAM / CAE

Everyday the companies make strategic business decisions to improve their position in the market. They examine the business value chain to improve the product innovation, customer intimacy, and operational efficiency. Product development is one of the key weapons in the war for a competitive advantage. Policy in product development is in the form of five ‘rights’, viz. the right information, in...

Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) with CAD and CAE

A Feature-Based CAD-CAE Integration Model for Injection Molded Product Design

One prominent characteristic of product design for injection molded parts is that design and analysis (e.g. flow simulation) go hand-in-hand to ensure that the design is manufacturable by the injection molding process. Despite the wide use of CAD and CAE systems, it is known that communication between the two processes is poor. In this paper we propose a feature-based CAD-CAE integration model ...

A Product Model based Approach to Interactive CAE Design Optimization

We present a software prototype for fluid flow problems in civil engineering, which combines essential features of Computational Steering approaches with efficient methods for model transfer and high performance computing. The main components of the system are described:-The modeler with a focus on the data management of the product model-The pre-processing and the post-processing toolkit-The s...
