Workshop on FEM at BITS Pilani, (Hyd ) - Moldex & Creo Simulate

A 3 day workshop was organized by The Central CAD laboratory at  Birla Institute of Technology and Science(BITS), Pilani-Hyderabad campus - July 14 to July 16th 2016.

Finite Element Method (FEM) is a numerical technique of solving the mathematical models. With the advent of high performance computers, FEM is recognized as a widely accepted technique  to solve and analyze the complex engineering problems. Today,FEM is employeed in many commercial tools in the analysis of problems related to aerospace, automobile, civil, chemical, and mechanical enginereing. The workshop will enable the participants to learn the basics of FEM and to utilize the ABAQUS commercial FEM tool in solving problems related to solid mechanics,Manufacturing processes , Geomechanics and Composite. This workshop is designed for Faculty and Research Scholars who deals with the analysis of differential equations. Every session was taught with hands on exercise using ABAQUS tool.

Program Content

The below topics have been covered in the workshop

1. Finite Element Method
2. FEM in solid mechanics

3. FEM in Geomechanics

4. FEM in Manufacturing processes

5. FEM in Composites

6. Application of FEM in Automotive Engineering

Mr.Suresh from CoreTech & Ratna Prasad of Adroitec Engineering Solutions presented  our range of simulation tools  - PTC Creo Simulate and Moldex 3D to address the structural, thermal and Plastic Injection Molding simulation problems .

About 40 professionals have attended the event which included Research Scholars and faculties from different engineering colleges.

DMT 3D metal printing (DMT (Laser-aided Direct Metal Tooling))

DMT 3D metal printing Technology belongs to most advanced generative manufacturing processes. This technology melts commercially available metal powders using high power laser and shapes complex metal structures with the aid of 3D CAD file. It is one of the latest 3D metal printing technologies and is classified according to ASTM standard in the category of "Directed Energy Deposition". Compared to more famous `Powder Bed fusion´ Technology DMT 3D metal printing technology uses commercially available industrial-metal powder.

It is therefore very economical. The powder flows constantly and is completely melted through laser beam and rapid solidified again. The microscopic metal structure is thus 100% tight and not different from conventionally produced metal parts or has in some cases even better mechanical properties.

 

 

Uniparts has reduced the design validation time by using Creo Simulate ( Pro/Mechanica )

Uniparts has reduced the design validation time by using Creo Simulate

Uniparts India Limited in Visakhapatnam, Uniparts Group is a leading international manufacturer of three point linkages ,PMP components, and
hydraulic systems for agricultural and construction equipment

BUSINESS INITIATIVE

• Seeking value added capability to grow their business.
• They wanted a FEA solution which could reduce the design approval cycle time . 
• Time saving FEA solution with user-friendly interface.

SOLUTION

• PTC’s resellers M/s Adroitec proposed Pro/Mechanica, (Creo Simulate) and implemented the same.
• Creo Simulate could handle and complete the analysis of hydraulics steering cylinder.
• Buckling analysis was completed faster and accurate, as compared to statistical results.

RESULT

• Uniparts has successfully analyzed hydraulics steering cylinder using Pro/Mechanica and the results were inline with the real time analysis they did.
• Uniparts has reduced 50% in the design approval cycle.

“This will help us develop & introduce new products into the market and has been useful to validate our designs as compared with stastical results,
