In the lecture, four computational mechanics processes were presented: 1. Comparative Iterations 2. Algorithmic 3. Finite Elements Software like ABAQUS and ANSYS 4. Generative design like Autodesk Assign the processes listed above to the key statements outlined below. Every key statement can apply to more than one process. For example, if statement (a) below applies to computational mechanics processes 1 and 2, write down the following: Statement (a) applies to processes 1 and 2 Homework #5 – Using Computation MECE 2361 - Introduction to Mechanical Design Key statements: a) Requires CAD representation of the design
b) Requires definition of the inputs, outputs
c) Requires definition of the initial conditions and boundary conditions.
d) Software is used to track different iterations of different inputs, changes in output are compared.
e) Require evaluation of the results and good engineering interpretation
f) Requires knowledge in Finite Estimation (Discretization of the continuous mathematical model using a mathematical numerical analysis method)
g) Requires knowledge in Algorithmic programming
h) Generates the design for you based on the specified constraints
i) Requires parallel computing for fast large calculations
j) Require validation of the results with experimental results, analytical calculation or benchmark problems
