The Use of Automatic Tet Meshing within a Concurrent Engineering Environment
نویسنده
چکیده
The use of CATXPRESS to enable CATIA solid geometry to be transferred to MSC/PATRAN has been investigated. This geometric data has then been used to generate a finite element model using the automatic meshing routines available in MSC/PATRAN. New working methods have been developed which make use of this facility and three examples of ‘real’ engineering problems are presented.

Simulation of Store Separation using Low-cost CFD with Dynamic Meshing
The simulation of the store separation using the automatic coupling of dynamic equations with flow aerodynamics is addressed. The precision and cost (calculation time) were considered as comparators. The method used in the present research decreased the calculation cost while limiting the solution error within a specific and tolerable interval. The methods applied to model the aerodynamic force...
متن کاملCAD Data Repair
Using CAD data for analysis is becoming more common, but is still fraught with dirty geometry problems such as slivers, cross-overs, minute edge lengths, stray points ‘on the moon’, wonderful clean-asa-whistle models that are useless for meshing, patchworks of faces that attract unnecessary elements, birdsnests of draughting geometry stuck in a corner, etc. Even if binary, native CAD files are ...

متن کاملDynamic Meshing Characteristics of Elliptic Cylinder Gear Based on Tooth Contact Analysis
As the most important working area of gear, teeth play the role of transmitting load and power. Tooth line and tooth profile are the two main characteristics of the tooth surface, which affect the shape of the tooth surface, tooth meshing characteristics and contact characteristics. Taking the elliptical cylinder gear pair in the reversing device of a new type of drum pumping unit as the resear...
متن کاملUsing a Virtual Reality Environment to Simulate the Pushing of Cylindrical Nanoparticles
With the rise in the use of AFM (Atomic Force Microscope), we have witnessed a growing use of atomic microscope based nanorobots in the precise displacement of various particles. There are certain limitations to the application of nanorobots in the moving of nanoparticles. One of the most important of these limitations is the lack of an appropriate image feedback concurrent with the displaci...
