  • CAD for VEX Robotics
    CAD for VEX Robotics (updated 7/23/20) The question of CAD comes up from time to time, so here is some information and sources you can use to help you and your students get started with CAD. “COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN” OR “COMPUTER AIDED DOCUMENTATION”? First off, the nature of VEX in general, is a highly versatile prototyping system, and this leads to “tinkerbots” (for good or bad, how many robots are truly planned out down to the specific parts prior to building?). The team that actually uses CAD for design (that is, CAD is done before building), will usually be an advanced high school team, juniors or seniors (and VEX-U teams, of course), and they will still likely use CAD only for preliminary design, then future mods and improvements will be tinkered onto the original design. The exception is 3d printed parts (U-teams only, for now) which obviously have to be designed in CAD. I will say that I’m seeing an encouraging trend that more students are looking to CAD design than in the past. One thing that has helped is that computers don’t need to be so powerful and expensive to run some of the newer CAD software…especially OnShape. Here’s some reality: most VEX people look at CAD to document their design and create neat looking renderings of their robots. If you don't have the time to learn CAD, I suggest taking pictures. Seriously though, CAD stands for Computer Aided Design, not Computer Aided Documentation. It takes time to learn, which is why community colleges have 2-year degrees in CAD, or you can take weeks of training (paid for by your employer, of course).

  • Development of a Coupling Approach for Multi-Physics Analyses of Fusion Reactors
    Development of a coupling approach for multi-physics analyses of fusion reactors Zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Ingenieurwissenschaften (Dr.-Ing.) bei der Fakultat¨ fur¨ Maschinenbau des Karlsruher Instituts fur¨ Technologie (KIT) genehmigte DISSERTATION von Yuefeng Qiu Datum der mundlichen¨ Prufung:¨ 12. 05. 2016 Referent: Prof. Dr. Stieglitz Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Moslang¨ This document is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution – Share Alike 3.0 DE License (CC BY-SA 3.0 DE): http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/de/ Abstract Fusion reactors are complex systems which are built of many complex components and sub-systems with irregular geometries. Their design involves many interdependent multi- physics problems which require coupled neutronic, thermal hydraulic (TH) and structural mechanical (SM) analyses. In this work, an integrated system has been developed to achieve coupled multi-physics analyses of complex fusion reactor systems. An advanced Monte Carlo (MC) modeling approach has been first developed for converting complex models to MC models with hybrid constructive solid and unstructured mesh geometries. A Tessellation-Tetrahedralization approach has been proposed for generating accurate and efficient unstructured meshes for describing MC models. For coupled multi-physics analyses, a high-fidelity coupling approach has been developed for the physical conservative data mapping from MC meshes to TH and SM meshes. Interfaces have been implemented for the MC codes MCNP5/6, TRIPOLI-4 and Geant4, the CFD codes CFX and Fluent, and the FE analysis platform ANSYS Workbench. Furthermore, these approaches have been implemented and integrated into the SALOME simulation platform. Therefore, a coupling system has been developed, which covers the entire analysis cycle of CAD design, neutronic, TH and SM analyses.

  • Chapter 18 Solidworks
    Chapter 18 SolidWorks As much as any company in the CAD industry, SolidWorks was inspired by the vision of a single individual, Jon Hirschtick. He received both a BS and an MS degree in mechanical engineering from MIT in 1983 and subsequently worked at the MIT CAD Laboratory under Dr. David Gossard. Hirschtick had a strong entrepreneurial streak in him from an early age including a period as a self-employed magician during high school. While working at the CAD Laboratory, he enrolled in an entrepreneurship class in 1987 where he teamed up with Axel Bichara to write a business plan for a new CAD software company they called Premise. Bichara was a graduate student from Germany who was also working at the CAD Laboratory at the time.1 The class business plan for Premise was submitted in mid-May, 1987 and in a little over a month the two founders had $1.5 million in venture funding from Harvard Management Company. It was no surprise that the company set up shop in Cambridge. Figure 18.1 Jon Hirschtick2 Premise’s initial software product, DesignView, was a two-dimension conceptual design tool that ran on IBM-compatible PCs and interfaced with Microsoft software packages such as Word and Excel. Users could sketch geometry, assign constraints and define dimensional relationships. If a dimension changed, the design would adapt to this new information. Since it could be interfaced to Excel, spreadsheets could be used to 1 Bygrave, William D. and D’Heilly, Dan – editors, The Portable MBA in Entrepreneurship Case Studies, Pg.

  • Simulation Modelling for Computer Aided Design of Secondary Aerodynamic Wing Surfaces Aleksandr A
    Advances in Systems Science and Application (2015) Vol.15 No.4 338-350 Simulation Modelling for Computer Aided Design of Secondary Aerodynamic Wing Surfaces Aleksandr A. Gorbunov, Aleksej D. Pripadchev, Irina S. Bykova and Valerij V. Elagin Federal State Educational Government-financed Institution of Higher Professional Education, Orenburg State University, Orenburg region, Russia Abstract The simulation modelling technique of secondary aerodynamic wing surface of the long-haul aircraft using a high-precision mathematical simulation in the aerody- namics and hydrodynamics computer programme has been formulated in the present article. The method proposed is based on the modern methods in the field of computer-aided design of aircraft using CATIA three-dimensional sim- ulation and simulation modelling in SALOME environment. The use of high- precision mathematical simulation in computer-aided design of secondary aero- dynamic wing surfaces allows us to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of the secondary aerodynamic surface of the model developed and to verify the previous results of the project definition. Keywords Secondary aerodynamic surfaces; High-precision computer mathemat- ical simulation; Simulation model; A long-haul aircraft; Synthesis; Design au- tomation; Project procedures; Three-dimensional modelling 1 Introduction Building the new long-haul aircraft (A/C) with improved performance character- istics and enhancing the currently used aircraft is effected in various ways. One of them is improving its aerodynamics depending largely on the A/C look. In our view, the most rational way to improve the aerodynamic characteristics of the A/C is to install the secondary aerodynamic surfaces (SAS) at the wingtip. The use of SAS reduces the induced drag of the aircraft, enhances the effective wing aspect-ratio and ascensional power at the wingtip, improves A/C longitu- dinal/transverse stability, reduces specific fuel consumption, cuts takeoff run and landing roll of the aircraft.

  • New Math the Hidden Cost of Swapping CAD Kernels
    New Math The Hidden Cost of Swapping CAD Kernels Schnitger Corporation Schnitger Corporation Page 2 of 11 When we first wrote about the costs of switching CAD kernels a decade ago, we profiled a company that had twenty years’ worth of legacy designs to refresh. They could either find copies of the old software (and the hardware to run it on) or convert the parts to a new format and use a modern CAD system to move the designs forward. Old CAD on old hardware was a non-starter, leaving migrating everything to a new CAD system. But what to convert to? They already used SolidWorks in part of their business and considered moving the legacy parts to that platform. One big problem: Many of SolidWorks’ newest features rely on Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE platform. The traditional desktop SolidWorks is built on the Parasolid kernel, while the 3DEXPERIENCE platform uses the CGM kernel. This reliance on two kernels leads many users to worry that building parts in SolidWorks will eventually mean a wholesale conversion from Parasolid to CGM. If you migrate everything today, will you have to do it again in a few years? As you’ll see later, converting from one kernel to another can be tricky so, if there is an opportunity to avoid a kernel change, you should investigate this possibility. The company we wrote about decided that it couldn’t afford the risk, disruption, and uncertainty an unclear future might cause. They chose Siemens Solid Edge, which also uses the Parasolid kernel. Sticking with the same kernel simplified moving their Parasolid-based models from one CAD tool to another.

  • Automatic 3D Design Tool for Fitted Spools in Shipbuilding Industry
    Conference Proceedings of INEC 2 – 4 October 2018 Automatic 3D design tool for fitted spools in shipbuilding industry F Uzcategui, MSca, Dr. A Paz-Lopez, MScb, J Vilar, MScc, A Mallo, MScd, A Brage, MScc, Dr. H Moro, MScc, Dr. F Bellas, MCsd aUMI UDC-Navantia, Ferrol, A Coruña, Spain; bMytech IA, A Coruña, Spain; cNavantia, Ferrol, A Coruña, Spain; dUniversity of A Coruña, A Coruña Spain * Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Synopsis The objective of this paper is to show the initial research results obtained with an automatic 3D design software tool we have developed for spool fitting in the pipe workshop of the Navantia Ferrol shipyard. This software tool requires, as input, a CAD file containing the scene with the two pipes to connect, and provides, as output, a CAD file with the fitted spool design. The software detects the features of the spool, and a heuristic pipe routing algorithm generates the output by computing several routes and providing one solution that is near to the optimal one. This output design considers the characteristics and capacities of the manufacturing process, as well as the library of materials used in the shipyard, so it is possible to use it for direct manufacturing. The preliminary results presented here were obtained using real data captured with different commercial 3D scanners over a test setup. Keywords: Automatic design; Pipe routing; 3D scanning; Spool fitting; Marine systems 1. Introduction Pipe assembly is a process that is carried out in different stages throughout the construction of a ship. This task is part of the outfitting of products such as the module, sub-block or block.

  • Chapter 2 Principles of Geometric Modeling
    In: Borrmann, A.; König, M.; Koch, C.; Beetz, J. (Eds): Building Information Modeling - Technology Foundations and Industry Practice, Springer, 2018, DOI: 10.1007/978-3-319-92862-3 Chapter 2 Principles of Geometric Modeling Andre´ Borrmann and Volker Berkhan Abstract The three-dimensional geometry of a building is a vital prerequisite for Building Information Modeling. This chapter examines the principles involved in representing geometry with a computer. It details explicit and implicit approaches to describing volumetric models as well as the basic principles of parametric modeling for creating flexible, adaptable models. The chapter concludes with an examination of freeform curves and surfaces and their underlying mathematical description. 2.1 Geometric modeling in the context of BIM A Building Information Model contains all the relevant information needed for the planning, construction and operation of a building. The three-dimensional descrip- tion of the geometry of a building is one of the most important aspects without which many BIM applications would not be possible. The availability of a model in three dimensions offers significant advantages over conventionally drawn plans: • The planning and construction of the building can be undertaken using a 3D model rather than separate plans and sections. Drawings are then generated from the 3D model, ensuring that the separate drawings always correspond and remain consistent with one another. This almost entirely eradicates a common source of errors, especially when alterations are made to the plans. But a three-dimensional geometric model on its own is not sufficient for generating plans that conform Andre´ Borrmann Technical University of Munich, Chair of Computational Modeling and Simulation, Arcisstr.

  • A Link Between CAD Models and Physics Codes

Eng., LECAD, Ljubljana, Slovenia 2CCFE, Culham Science Centre, OX14 3DB Abingdon, United Kingdom The scientific workflow for which the CAD model is read or modelled, meshed and then stored as an input to be used by the code should be made easier and more efficient for retrieval and reuse with emphasis to data provenance. A link between the CAD models and physics codes is being developed and will provide a programmable access within the scientific workflows that will be more flexible regarding the input controls and scenarios for different tokamak ma- chines. In this paper we describe the process of CAD geometry programmable modelling from simple to complex geometries organized in different levels of details. Furthermore, meshing of the geometry for visualisation purposes and storage of the mesh and attributes in a general grid description (GGD) is provided automatically. 3D codes for RWM, heat flux, fast particle simulations, and 2D SOL, or core can be directly linked to the presented CAD interface library. Tokamak CAD programmable modelling CAD model of the tokamak is programmably modelled using the OpenCASCADE CAD ker- nel. This approach is used for exploration purposes of cataloguing the CAD model complexity in different level of details. The main source of the CAD data is from the proprietary software used for the machine modelling. Thus, the input for the CAD service library is a STEP file exported either from the proprietary or the open source software if available.

  • Programmed Design of Ship Forms A
    Programmed design of ship forms A. Rodríguez, L. Fernández-Jambrina* ABSTRACT This paper describes a new category of CAD applications devoted to the definition and parameterization of hull forms, called programmed design. Programmed design relies on two prerequisites. The first one is a product model with a variety of types large enough to face the modeling of any type of ship. The second one is a design language dedicated to create the product model. The main purpose of the language is to publish the modeling algorithms of the application in the designer knowledge domain to let the designer create parametric model scripts. The programmed design is an evolution of the parametric design but it is not just parametric design. It is a tool to create parametric design tools. It provides a methodology to extract the design knowledge by abstracting a design experience in order to store and reuse it. Programmed design is related with the organizational and architectural aspects of the CAD applications but not with the development of modeling algorithms. It is built on top and relies on existing algorithms provided by a comprehensive product model. Programmed design can be useful to develop new applications, to support the evolution of existing applications or even to integrate different types of application in a single one. A three-level software architecture is proposed to make the implementation of the programmed design easier. These levels are the conceptual level based on the design language, the mathematical level based on the geometric formulation of the product model and the visual level based on the polyhedral representation of the model as required by the graphic card.
