  • Publication number: 20100156936
    Abstract: In a computer including a controller, a storage unit, an input unit, and a display unit, the controller displays, on the display unit, a similar shape search screen for searching a partial shape (second shape) similar to a partial shape (first shape) which composes an analysis model. When the first shape is specified using the input unit, the controller searches a feature shape database of the storage unit for the second shape similar to the first shape, and displays the search result on the display unit. The controller specifies geometric information of the first shape corresponding to geometric information of the searched second shape, deforms the analysis model based on the specified geometric information and the deformation pattern information of the second shape stored in the feature shape deformation database of the storage unit, and displays the analysis model after the deformation on the display unit.

  • Publication number: 20100138195
    Abstract: The conventional technologies are impractical for the following reason. CAD has been the only solution for changing an analysis model with adding or deleting a fillet. In this case, it is necessary to repeat the mesh generation and condition configuration, which makes the work time longer especially for large-scale or complicated shape data. The present invention, accomplished to solve the above-mentioned problem, provides an analysis mesh generation apparatus including a computer for generating a mesh model. The apparatus is configured to create a screen for selecting an edge of a mesh model and entering a radius of a fillet to be applied to the selected edge; and to create a screen for generating a mesh for the applied fillet, generating a new mesh model by deleting or adding an area enclosed by a contour of the mesh model and the fillet, and displaying the new mesh model.

  • Publication number: 20080052048
    Abstract: An analytical model creation system can create a desired analytical model by adding a given shape change to an existing analytical model. The system includes an adjacent partial analytical model interlocking section for performing an interlocking change process. The interlocking change process is performed on the existing analytical model as a combined analytical model comprising a plurality of partial analytical models. The process assumes any one of the partial analytical models in the combined analytical model to be a change-targeted partial analytical model. The process allows a partial analytical model adjacent to the change-targeted partial analytical model to reflect a shape change given to the change-targeted partial analytical model. The process thereby makes a shape change to the adjacent partial analytical model in interlock with the shape change.
