Objective
The aim of the project is to develop a complete set of advanced software tools for the optimal kinematic and dynamic design of multi-body systems (MBS) using high-performance, parallel computers. These tools are intended for use in design and industrial production environments relevant to mechanical engineering.
The main objectives of the project are:
- To develop software modules for kinematic synthesis and optimum dynamic design of MBS using HPCN, linked to a parametric and variational interactive CAD modeller.
- An interactive interface for the definition of design variables, geometry and objective functions.
- To implement and run the most time-consuming tasks in an HPCN environment making use of multi-CPU computers and clusters of workstations.
The starting point for this project will be the CAD and MBS-simulation packages currently available within the consortium. These will be enhanced with additional capabilities that will allow the new modules developed in this project to run in the same environment. The use of standards such as UNIX, C++, X-Windows, Motif and STEP and a modular structure, based on Object Oriented Programming techniques, will guarantee the openness, portability and scalability of the system. The consortium will exploit the software developed both internally and externally.
