The use of generative modelling to automate the design of aerial structural assemblies

Abstract

This paper presents a method of automating design that has the potential to significantly improve the design process. The intent is to develop a design automation system that is an integration of several methods in a holistic approach for use. The automation Generative Design approach allows the reuse of wing design data and parameters. For this purpose, Generative Design methodologies are discovered to enhance the system building. This example of an analyzed wing structure to develop a compatible method to automate the design is described. The model parameterization technique is used to facilitate the generative model creation based on parameters, variables, and constraints. The use of integration in SolidWorks software function is proposed as part of an approach to support designers during both the generative model-building phase of the design process and simulation verification phase. Finally, an example and validation process is presented. The aim is to quickly and cost-effectively validate analytical results from the developed process. The proposed process adopts flexibility to acquire the intended model on different sizes and purposes, likewise, it is shown how the implemented approach makes it possible to automate the generation of generative models for FEM analysis.
