Computer-aided engineering (CAE) is the broad usage of computer software to aid in engineering tasks. It includes computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided analysis (CAA), computer-integrated manufacturing (CIM), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), material requirements planning (MRP), and computer-aided planning (CAP). In this study, the stress of mold analyzed using CAE technique. Punch loads were same difference between 0.5 % and 1.0 % of clearance, but punch load was decreased according to increasing of clearance. Punch load of pre-piercing process worked a little smaller than piercing process. Therefore, the hole of fine blanking process is also more efficient to manufacture the true size after pre-piercing.

오늘날 제조업에 있어서는 시장의 다양화, 원가절감 및 리드타임의 단축이라는 대내외적 요구에 부응할 수 있는 기술 생산체재의 확립이 요구되고 있다. 이에 따라 설계 및 기술변경(Engineering Change)에따른 원가상승을 막기 위해 CAE(Computer aided engineering), CAD(Computer aided design)의 도입을 서두르게 되었고 CAD데이타의 효율적 이용에 의한 가공 및 생산적 측면에서 CAM(Computer aided manufacturing)의 도입도 검토하게 되었다. 본 논문은 이러한 개념의 발상동기와 이를 뒷받침하기 위한 한국 아이 비 엠이서 제공하는 하드웨어 및 소프트웨어를 소개하고 공장자동화를 위한 기술 생산 통합시스템의 구축이라는 측면에서 아이 비 엠이 추구하는 방향을 검토하고 있다.

Computer-aided engineering (CAE) analysis is considered essential for product development because it decreases the simulation time, reduces the prototyping costs, and enhances the reusability of product parts. The reuse of quality-assured CAE data has been continually increasing due to the extension of product lifecycle management; PLM, which is widely used, shortens the product development cycle and improves the product quality. However, less attention has been paid to systematic research on the interoperability of CAE data because of the diversity of CAE data and because the structure of CAE data is more complex than that of CAD data. In this paper, we suggest a CAE data exchange method for the effective sharing of geometric and analysis data. The method relies on heterogeneous CAE systems, a virtual reality system, and our developed CAE middleware for CAE data exchange. We also designed a generic CAE kernel, which is a critical part of the CAE middleware. The kernel offers a way of storing analysis data from various CAE systems, and, with the aid of a script command, enabling the data to be translated for a different system. The reuse of CAE data is enhanced by the fact that the CAE middle-ware can be linked with a virtual reality system or a product data management system.

Today's product development requires simultaneous satisfaction of low cost, high quality and fast time to market. It is, however, difficult for product designers and engineers to achieve this goal due to too many requirements. This study shows integrated Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) approach can help to achieve such goal. CAE can not only support designers when decision needs to be made during concept design period but also provide evaluation of the designed parts and guidance to the best design of products during detail design period. Furthermore, integration with virtual prototyping concept can reduce number of actual prototyping and consequently reduce product development cost and time considerably. In order to demonstrate its possibility, example of washing machine development using CAE and its results are presented in this study.

This paper presents a CAE(Computer Aided Engineering)system for solving electrostatic field problems by means of a small size computer such as a personal computer. The system software operated on the personal computer is composed of a CAD(Computer aided Design), electric field analysis by using FEM(Finite Element Method)and DB(Data Base)of insulating materials. In addition, we discuss an application of the system to analyzing electric field such as parallel plate electrodes with an insulation spacer, which result suggests that the visualization of electric field distribution and tolerance for insulation strength enables us to assure a simplified evaluation of the insulating design.

The planning of part feeder and other manufacturing automation equipments is almost always underestimated. Planning ahead for those crucial pitfalls can permit steps to take to minimize heir impacts, especially if the problems can be discovered in the planning phase, not on the shop floor. Planning process is an engineering process, namely a series of trade-offs. The effective trade-offs in the shortest amount of time can be possible with the help of a computer-aided ngineering (CAE) technique. The main parts of CAE fur part feeder are database system of fabricated workpiece parts, part feeders, part feeder components. In this study, a planning process of part feeder is presented. Especially, a systematic analysis of workpiece parts and part feeders is performed for the design of databases of CAE system.

This paper describes an automated computer-aided engineering (CAE) system for micromachines whose size range 10 to 10$^3$${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. An automatic finite element mesh generation technique, which is based on the fuzzy knowledge processing and computational geometry techniques, is incorporated into the system, together with one of commercial finite clement (FE) analysis codes, MARC, and one of commercial solid modelers, Designbase. The system allows a geometry model of concern to be a automatically converted to different FE models, depending on physical phenomena to be analyzed, i.e. electrostatic analysis, stress analysis, modal analysis and so on. The FE analysis models are then exported to the FE analysis code, and then analyses are performed. This system is successfully applied to an electrostatic micro actuator.

In many areas of industry, it is desirable to have fast and reliable systems in order to quickly obtain suitable solid models for computer- aided analyses. Nevertheless it is well known that the data exchange process between CAD modelers and CAE packages can require significative efforts. This paper presents an approach for geometrical data exchange through triangulated boundary models. The proposed framework is founded on the use of STL file specification as neutral format file. This work is principally focused on data exchange among CAD modelers and FEA packages via STL. The proposed approach involves the definition of a topological structure suitable for the STL representation and the development of algorithms for topology and geometry data processing in order to get a solid model suitable for finite element analysis or other computer aided engineering purposes. Different algorithms for model processing are considered and their pros and cons are discussed. As a case study, a prototype modeler which supports an exporting filter for a commercial CAE package has been implemented.
