Computer Aided Engineering

Computer Aided Engineering is the broad usage of computer software to aid in

Engineering tasks.

Computer-aided engineering (CAE)is the use of computer software to simulate

performance in order to improve product designs or assist in the resolution of

engineering problems for a wide range of industries. This includes simulation,

validation, and optimization of products, processes, and manufacturing tools.

In general, there are 3 phases in any computer aided engineering tasks:

Pre Processing (Finite Element Model)

Analysis Post - Processing

Finite Element Analysis

The user constructs a model of the

part to be analyzed. Then

the geometry is divided into a number

of discrete sub-regions or elements

connected at discrete points called

nodes. Certain of these nodes will

levels on the model, showing a full

picture similar to that of photoelastic or

moire experimental results. this

method is used for almost every kind

of CAD components.

have fixed displacements, and others

will have prescribed loads. Then the

loads of real value, direction and

type are applied on the model.

12


13/35

Benefits High Speed High Quality Meshing

With both automatic and semi-automatic shell, tetra- and hexa-meshing

capabilities, HyperMesh simplifies the modeling process of complex

geometries.

13


14/35

Benefits User Friendly

Reduces training time and cost by elimination of redundant tools

An easy-to-use, intuitive graphical user interface makes it simple for anyone

to learn the software, which further increases modeling efficiency and reduces

training cost.
