Analysis Solutions


 

Domain Objective
 

CATIA V5 Analysis provides realistic design simulation capability within the CATIA design environment, allowing designers to perform analysis directly on their master reference model in CATIA. Since there is no transfer of geometry, data integrity issues are avoided. The generative capability of the CATIA Analysis product suite enables design-analysis iterations to be performed rapidly from simple parts to complex assemblies. Unbeatable ease of use makes CATIA Analysis particularly suitable for designers looking to accurately size their designs and quickly evaluate their real-world performance.

Analysis Domain Overview
 
User-friendly environment
CATIA Analysis provides designers and analysts with an intuitive user interface that meets their varied needs. Since the user interface is a natural extension of that in CATIA, it is particularly easy for CATIA users. They obtain a realistic understanding of the mechanical behavior by quickly reviewing design characteristics in a digital mockup (DMU) environment. The CATIA V5 tools and environment that are common to all CATIA applications, Abaqus for CATIA, and partner solutions, eliminate the problem of lost productivity associated with using multiple applications.

Fast design-analysis loops
CATIA Analysis is an integral part of CATIA. The analysis specifications are an extension of the part and assembly design specifications, and the analysis is performed directly on the CATIA geometry. It is, therefore, simple and convenient to perform an analysis to help size parts and compare the performance of different design alternatives. The impact of design changes can be rapidly assessed with automatic updates. Designers using CATIA Analysis will naturally use analysis as part of their design process, affording them a greater understanding of how their designs perform and improving their ability to deliver the right design the first time.

Multidiscipline collaboration
CATIA Analysis supports concurrent engineering, allowing users to work closely together and avoid rework. Designers and analysts can collaborate since they have access to the same environment, eliminating data transfer, rework, and the need to maintain multiple applications for design and analysis. The CATIA Analysis environment also allows method developers to create templates that designers can routinely use to perform standard types of analysis.

Knowledge-based optimization
The CATIA Analysis products leverage the native CATIA knowledge-based architecture. They allow designs to be optimized by capturing and studying the knowledge associated with part design and analysis. The reuse of analysis features and the application of knowledge-based rules and checks ensure compliance to company best practices. Automation of standard analysis processes through the use of knowledgeware templates dramatically improves the efficiency of the design-analysis process.

Industry-proven performance
The speed with which analyses can be performed with CATIA Analysis often surprises designers and simulation experts familiar with other applications. The time it takes to create the finite element model, solve it, and display results can be a matter of minutes. The robust, built-in finite element solver and mesh generators balance both accuracy and speed. The adaptive meshing capability automatically adjusts the mesh to obtain accurate results without time-consuming manual involvement.

Equipment & Systems Engineering Domain Overview
 
  • A set of Electrical products to address 2D and 3D requirements...CATIA V5 Electrical products provide the tools needed to manage the electrical behavior of components and their integration into the 3D digital mock-up. A bi-directional interface between CATIA Version 5 and electrical CAD systems provides mechanical parts and assemblies with electrical behavior in order to define electrical devices and also manage the definition of electrical wires within the digital mock-up. A relationship can be set between 2D logical design and 3D digital mock-up to ensure consistency of both schematic and physical representation.
  • An advanced common platform for all CATIA V5 Diagramming applications...A base for all diagramming applications such as CATIA Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams and CATIA HVAC Diagrams, this is the common platform for all 2D logical schematic tools. Integrated into the rest of the CATIA V5 platform, it allows the user to define relationships between the 2D logical design and 3D allocation.
  • Create, manage analyze and document Equipment and Systems... CATIA V5 provides a complete set of tools to satisfy the life cycle requirements of manufacturing plant equipment designs, tubing, piping and HVAC design.
  • Manages and optimizes space allocation for equipment and systems...Users can create and manage their systems pathways to ensure space reservations and allocations.

CATIA - ENOVIA Work Exchange Package 2 - (EWE) supports the ability to Export and Import CATIA V5 product data across the OEM and subcontractor sites while maintaining the original database relationships. This allows the subcontractor to use the exported data when it is disconnected from the OEM s ENOVIA database, providing supply chain flexibility while ensuring data integrity. The CATIA V5 Infrastructure also provides for interconnection with an external PDM through its PPR XPDM Gateway 1 (PX1), allowing product life cycle data to be managed and synchronized with the customer s existing data management tools.

As a result, the system acts as an expert advisor to guide users through the tasks, warning them of rule violations and conflicts, thus automating design generation and reducing risk. The full power of your accumulated product knowledge can be embedded directly in the design, by storing it in catalogues. It can also be leveraged through the use of custom applications based on CATIA V5 processes, allowing designers to accelerate and secure the design process cycle time, while being more innovative.
  • Knowledgeware tools to explore more of the benefits of design alternatives and automated goal-driven design optimisation The Knowledgeware solutions permit users to assess and quickly determine the best alternative for a design amongst numerous combinations of parameters and constraints. Its ability to take multidisciplinary specifications into account, such as distance, cost, volume and time, across all the CATIA V5 products, enables users to perform powerful and complete assessments of designs.
  • Assured design consistency and quality Knowledgeware solutions ensure compliance to best practices and corporate standards. Users can validate their designs and ensure acceptable development standards are maintained enterprise-wide. They also assure designers of the quality of their design, enabling them to make the right decisions, faster.
  • Solutions that facilitate brainstorming and innovation Functional and conceptual definition optimisation tools are designed to formalise designs. This allows users to detect engineering problems in the functional definition of the system at the conceptual development stage. They can then use solution guidance and links to knowledge databases as a powerful tool for solving them.
