VIrtual SImulation environment for a seamless integration of CAD/CAE into VR

Obiettivo

Aim of this project is the development of an innovative simulation framework based on virtual reality technology that enables an integration of CAD and CAE tasks into VR to reduce the time intervals of modelling and evaluation procedures. VR will provide an environment that enables the involved persons to upload a CAD domain model, automatically and interactively derive an analysis model and manipulate the model according to specific problems. This process comprises automatic meshing and interactive refinement strategies as well as interaction facilities with the simulation. New visualisation techniques are developed to provide an intuitive simulation machine that assists the designer during a simulation loop. This machine should be able to display the results in real-time and should offer the possibility to interactively move and modify boundary conditions with a related adaptation of the analysis model for the simulation.

Objectives:
The objective of this project is the development of an intuitive simulation framework based on virtual reality technology that enables integration of CAE tasks into VR to reduce the time intervals of modelling and evaluation procedures. As result the system will provide an intuitive virtual environment that enables a designer to upload a CAD domain model, automatically and interactively derive an analysis model and manipulate it, including intuitive automatic meshing and interactive refinement strategies as well as interaction facilities during the simulation. New visualisation techniques are developed and included providing an intuitive simulation machine that assists the designer during a simulation loop. The system will support a mode to conduct an interactive redesign of the basis domain and restart the simulation with modified parameters.

Work description:
ViSiCADE will provide methodologies and tools whereby models at an appropriate level of detail can be analysed and offer the possibility to clarify design details when required. New interaction methods are developed to derive sub domains through a mesh API. It is envisaged to conduct rapid preliminary design optimisation on simpler analysis models in real-time rather than investigate a model of full complexity. This hierarchical approach will start an analysis from coarse models for a preliminary design evaluation and results in local models that enable the designer to clarify design details when required. Adaptive methods for solving the resulting equations have to be assessed and implemented. New visualisation methods for the display of the results will be implemented to enhance the evaluation stage. Aim is to keep the context to the CAD model (represented in VR format) and display CAD model and the results of an analysis within the interactively derived sub domain.

The possibility will be created to save VR-models in STEP-format. The development of an integrated event driven CAE/VR system using grid technologies will enable the operation of such a system in a distributed computing environment. The computational grid would include parallel systems, user workstations database servers, and Visualisation engines and a FEM control mechanism as central enabling technology. Access to HPCN (High Performance Computing) facilities is considered to provide results for the virtual environment enabling the necessary computing power. The integration platform will aim to keep the link between CAD and VR by means of supporting STEP for exchange of geometry and FEM Data (ISO 10303 - Part 104) with the CAD System. It is envisaged to drive, extend and enhance this standard hence targeting industrial needs and providing a system that offers support for most of the available CAD Systems of the market.
