A Cad-Centric Approach To Cfd Analysis With Discrete Features, Matthew Lee King Oct 2004

A Cad-Centric Approach To Cfd Analysis With Discrete Features, Matthew Lee King

Theses and Dissertations

During the conceptual design stage several concepts are generated, and a few are selected for detailed analyses. CAD models from conceptual design often follow the "over-the-wall" approach for downstream analyses such as FEA, CFD, heat transfer, and vibrations. A CAD-centric approach will be applied to the CAD-to-CFD process to help industry in an ongoing quest to shorten the design cycle time. The CAD-centric approach consists of using the CAD model as a source of data for downstream applications such as mesh generation, and CFD setup. The CAD model used in the CAD-centric approach contains the geometry to be analyzed and …


The Open Assembly Model For The Exchange Of Assembly And Tolerance Information: Overview And Example, M. M. Baysal, U. Roy, R. Sudarsan, R. D. Sriram, K. W. Lyons Jan 2004

The Open Assembly Model For The Exchange Of Assembly And Tolerance Information: Overview And Example, M. M. Baysal, U. Roy, R. Sudarsan, R. D. Sriram, K. W. Lyons

Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering - All Scholarship

In early design phases an effective information exchange among CAD (Computer Aided Design) tools depends on a standardized representation for the product data in all PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) tools. The NIST Core Product Model (CPM) and its extension are proposed to provide the required base-level product model that is open, non-proprietary, generic, extensible, independent of any one product development process and capable of capturing the full engineering context commonly shared in product development [1]. The Open Assembly Model (OAM) Model extends CPM to provide a standard representation and exchange protocol for assembly. The assembly information model emphasizes the nature …
