    Computer-aided engineering (CAE) uses computer software to simulate product performance and improve designs. It analyzes products virtually before manufacturing. Common CAE software includes Abaqus, Ansys, and LS-DYNA. The CAE process involves preprocessing like importing CAD files and applying meshing and boundary conditions, solving using mathematical equations, and postprocessing to view results. Meshing divides geometry into finite elements for simulation. Boundary conditions define how a system interacts with its environment. CAE can perform various analyses like static, dynamic, thermal and fatigue. The author's team uses CAE to analyze vehicle components through static, dynamic, modal and thermal analyses to simulate frontal, side, rear impacts and roll overs

    The key takeaways are that CAE is used to analyze products virtually before manufacturing using computer simulations, some common software used are Abaqus, Ansys, LS-DYNA etc., a typical CAE process involves preprocessing, solving and postprocessing of models, and boundary conditions define how a system interacts with its environment and are important parameters to solve models accurately.

    Some of the main software used for CAE analysis are Abaqus, Ansys, LS-DYNA, Matlab, Hyperworks and NASTRAN. These provide tools for creating models, applying loads, solving simulations and reviewing results.

    A typical CAE process comprises three main steps - preprocessing where the CAD model is imported and meshed, solving where the model is solved using mathematical equations, and postprocessing where the results are presented.

    COMPUTER AIDED ENGINEERING (CAE)

    BY MAYUR NIKAM
    WHAT IS CAE?
     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.
     In simple words, CAE is nothing but the
    analysis of any product before it’s
    manufacturing.
    SOFTWARE USED
    FOR CAE:
     Abaqus
     Ansys
     LS-DYNA
     Matlab
     Hyperworks
     NASTRAN
    STEPS INVOLVED IN CAE:
     A typical CAE process comprises
    of preprocessing, solving, and postprocessing.
     In preprocessing, the CAD file is imported onto
    which meshing is done, boundary conditions
    and material is applied.
     In Solving phase, the model is solved using
    mathematical equations.
     In postprocessing, the results are displayed in
    terms of graphs or simulation.
    BASIC TERMS USED IN CAE:

     Geometry: 3D model or CAD model of the product to be manufactured.


     Meshing: Dividing the geometry into finite number of elements.
     Boundary Conditions: They are the constraints needed for the solution.
     Nodes: The points at which the elements connect with each other after the meshing.
     Bodies: There are generally 3 types (Line, Surface body/ shell body, Solid body).
     Degree of Freedom:  Degrees of freedom (DOF) is the number of independent variables that define the possible
    positions or motions of a mechanical system in space.
     Factor of Safety: It is the value which represents safety of any product. Ratio of yield strength to the working
    stress.
    WHAT IS MESHING? WHY IT
    IS IMPORTANT?
     Meshing is the method of generating a 2D
    or 3D grid over a geometry in order to
    discretize it and analyze it with simulation. 
     It is the process of dividing a geometry into
    finite number of elements.
     Computers cannot solve simulations on the
    CAD model’s actual geometry shape as the
    governing equations cannot be applied to an
    arbitrary shape.
     High quality mesh influences the accuracy,
    convergence, and speed of the simulation.
    WHAT ARE BOUNDARY
    CONDITIONS /
    CONSTRAINTS?

     Boundary conditions define


    how a system (for example,
    a structure or a fluid)
    interacts with the
    environment.
     They are the parameters
    provided by the engineer in
    order solve the model
    accurately.
     Boundary conditions vary
    according to the real-life
    scenarios/ applications of
    the product.
    TYPES OF ANALYSIS:

     Linear Static Analysis


     Non-linear analysis
     Dynamic analysis
     Linear buckling analysis
     Thermal analysis
     Transient Thermal analysis
     Fatigue analysis
     Crash analysis
    USE OF CAE IN OUR TEAM:

     CAE is being used into our team to analyse our


    vehicle components.
     Once the 3D model of the components is ready,
    we must analyse them based on their
    applications or real-life scenarios.
    TYPES OF
    ANALYSIS BEING
    PERFORMED:

     Static structural analysis on the


    chassis.
     Dynamic analysis on the chassis.
     Modal analysis on the chassis.
     Static structural analysis on
    various components.
     Modal analysis on various
    components.
     Thermal analysis on various
    components.
    CURRENT
    PROGRESS OF CAE:
     The chassis has been analysed
    for various scenarios.
     Front impact
     Side impact
     Rear Impact
     Roll Over
     Dynamic Analysis
     Assumptions are made that our vehicle is stationary, and another
    FRONT IMPACT: vehicle will have a frontal impact to our vehicle.
     Boundary conditions are made such that another vehicle is having a
    SIDE IMPACT: side impact to our stationary vehicle.
    REAR IMPACT:  For rear impact, another vehicle will hit our vehicle from rear side.
    ROLL OVER:  For Roll Over analysis, the vehicle will get rolled over to either side.
