This study shows how to utilize the CATIA V6 Dynamic Behavior Modeling (DBM) software environment for the purpose of co-simulation of physical models. The implementation of a co-simulation using Building Controls Virtual Test Bed (BCVTB) is demonstrated and the pros and cons are discussed. Further the methods for FMI export and import in CATIA are explored with respect to implementing a co-simu...

This paper introduced design analysis of a new 5DOF surgical robot used for minimally invasive surgery. The kinematics modeling is studied by solving the forward and inverse kinematics of the robot using the Denavit-Hartenberg convention and geometrical method. Robot kinematics simulation is built by creating the 3D CAD model of the robot and patient, then a kinematic motion simulation of a sur...

background: the aim of this study is to develop a new ergonomics chisel based on user centered design approach and to evaluate the effectiveness for reducing awkward posture using catia software for simulation analysis. methods: respondents were selected using purposive sampling – age 18 – 49 years old, men, experience using chisel (>1 month). a set of questionnaire were used to interview worke...

Simulate the computer-aided design of gymnastic device in the pre-development stage by applying CATIA V6 software, and explore the matching degree between gymnastic device design and human body database using the theory and data of Ergonomics. Build the improved model of gymnastic device based on CATIA V6 virtual human data and explore the best evaluation method of man-machine simulation for gy...

Purpose: This study tries to develop a simulation model of six degree freedom for Faraman AM1 welding robot using CATIA V5 and compares with the computed kinematic model for robotic welding. The error varification of simulated model and kinematics of the robot is also being carried out. Design/methodology/approach: CATIA (Computer Aided Three dimensional Interactive Application) is a multi-plat...

Engineering aircraft systems is a complex task. Therefore models and computer simulations are needed to test functions and behaviors of non existing systems, reduce testing time and cost, reduce the risk involved and to detect problems early which reduce the amount of implementation errors. At the section Vehicle Simulation and Thermal Analysis at Saab Aeronautics in Linköping every basic aircr...

During last years more and more phases of the design process of new industrial products, such as Concept Design, Design for Maintainability or DMU-based Design Review have increased the use of Virtual Reality (VR) to achieve optimum outcomes in the product design process. On the other hand whilst major CAD systems have increased the support to VR interfaces and to advanced visualization systems...

In this study, kinematics and dynamic simulation of a six-legged robot is performed based on virtual prototyping technology. Modeling and simulation of sixlegged robot with three joint legs are carried out with CATIA solid modeler, SimDesigner and ADAMS multibody dynamic solver. Tripod periodic gait pattern was generated varying the cycle time as well as stroke of the swing of the legs. Variati...

The paper deal about automated assembly manufacturing cell design. First part is about Methods and techniques used for assembly systems design. Next part describes specific CAD systems used for design process of our assembly cell. With help of this CAD toll we have design geometric disposition of all system elements by CATIA and also parts of control system by FluidSim. Whole design problematic...
