in the present paper, the modal analysis on a full finite element model of an off-road vehicle. this vehicle was modeled in the catia software and then meshed in the hypermesh software. the free vibration analysis was conducted by the abaqus software. by applying an external displacement, the forced vibration analysis was also performed. as a result, natural frequencies and shape modes were ext...

The Simulation Automation topics often deal with chaining a wide range of software tools used by organizations to design and simulate their new products. Automatically exploring the design space, this approach is now effective in reducing the companies' design cycle time. However, the achievement of the automation of each of the bricks of the process that will possibly be chained is the main is...

Commonly used single-user interactive applications include te...

This paper presents a methodology to be employed in the whole process design phase including first and second processing. This methodology consists of a set of steps which are characterised by an independent model. This paper’s objective is to analyse the coherence between the different models and the coherence between the model and the objectives of each step. The final stage is to develop the...

Requirements traceability as being mandated by many standards governing the development of systems (e.g. IEEE/EIA 12207) is undoubtedly useful to software maintenance. To many organizations, it is viewed as a measure of system quality and is treated as an important component of their efforts towards achieving process improvement (CMM). However, not much elaboration on what types of information ...

Application of non-pneumatic tire (NPT) has been increased during the last decade. The aerodynamic characteristics wheel with NPT studied due to significance on improvement handling and reduction fuel consumption. In this paper, first, an original model was simulated by CATIA software, influence structural parameters Fluent software. simulation calculation results showed that: width spoke lengt...
