Integration von geometrischer Modellierung und numerischer Analyse auf der Basis von Constructive Solid Geometry, Boundary Representation und der Finite Cell Methode Teil 2: Erweiterung auf fehlerhafte Geometrien und volumetrische Modelle auf Splinebasis
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
The two main objectives of the second phase of this project were the extension of the Finite Cell Method to (a) the direct simulation of flawed B-Rep models and (b) the utilization of volumetric models, i.e. V-models for the representation and simulation of functionally graded materials (FGM). Both objectives were successfully accomplished. Due to the vulnerability to all kinds of flaws, a large portion of all non-trivial B-Rep models used in industry are flawed. A classical numerical simulation of these models is impossible in general and typically requires an often tedious geometry healing involving manual work. With the point-inclusion test developed in this project for flawed B-Rep models an immediate simulation of those imprecise models is now possible using the FCM. The developed point-inclusion test is robust w.r.t. a large number of topological and geometrical flaws of industrial relevance and thereby ensures robustness of the CAD to analysis process up to a defined feature size ecrit of a flawed model. Moreover, the geometric errors translate to inaccuracies only in a small vicinity of the flaws, but in general do not inhibit computation. The extension of the FCM with V models could be based in a collaboration with the Technion (Haifa) on the existing functionality of a V-Rep framework. It was demonstrated that the FCM is able to fully exploit the capabilities of this framework w.r.t the modeling and representation of functionally graded materials. To this end, models with single-material, as well as multi-material functional graded materials were investigated and simulated. For discontinuous material distributions in particular, the developed adaptive local refinement within the FCM proved to be a very valuable asset.
