Intelligent Design through Optimization
|
Mechanical analyses are performed at Simucode by
utilizing commercially available Finite Element Analysis (FEA) packages
such as
ANSYS,
I-DEAS, and
ABAQUS.
The results obtained from these analyses
provide valuable guidance for engineering designs.
In mechanical engineering, the word "design" typically brings to mind
the design of a product - for examples, optimal die shape for extrusion;
optimal pre-form for forging or optimal design of draw beads for sheet
metal forming. Other examples are the optimal cooling profile for
the solidification of a casting of desired shape or optimal shape
of a part being quenched; determination of the appropriate shape and
material of a turbine blade for best performance in a given environment,
in which the thermal and mechanical loads are imposed upon it during use.
Such designs are best
carried out using optimization procedures in which objective functions
are extremized without violating certain constraints. Simucode
helps to achieve these goals. This service often help to promote
the industrial competitiveness of an engineering product
in various ways.
