A Method of CAD based Automation and Simulation by the Example of Virtual Stone Chipping Investigation

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

Frontloading in product development supports the possibility to make important decisions as soon as possible. The dedication of virtual product development tools implicates cost savings by reduction of physical prototype testing. The present publication treats the potential of computer-aided design (CAD) in a specific application to offer changeable, quick and efficient development. The application of
the developed methods and tools is shown for stone chipping investigations, which are important for the definition of corrosion protection measures in automotive body design. The automation by use of modern parametric-associative CAD models in combination with high level of knowledge integration enables the creation of simulation tools, which are able to support development processes especially
in early stages.
