A framed-mould computer-aided design system (FMCAD) used in the autoclave moulding process is proposed in this paper. A function model of the software is presented, in which influence factors such as part structure, mould structure, and process parameters are considered; a design model of the software is established using object oriented (O-O) technology to integrate the stiffness calculation, temperature field calculation, and deformation field calculation of mould in the design, and in the design model, a hybrid model of mould based on calculation feature and form feature is presented to support those calculations. A prototype system is developed, in which a mould design process wizard is built to integrate the input information, calculation, analysis, data storage, display, and design results of mould design. Finally, three design examples are used to verify the prototype.展开更多

This paper investigates the application of OoA processing in the gondola of the AS700 civil manned airship. The production cost of gondolas is reduced by selecting low cost materials such as glass fiber,PVC foam and OoA processing. The porosity of parts is reduced and controlled at about 2% by optimizing the edge breathing of prepreg during curing. The maximum tensile strain of the glass fiber is 4 593 με;its maximum compressive strain is 3 680 με;and its maximum shear strain is4 884 με. The maximum Von Mises stress of the foam is 0.70 MPa. These settings all meet the margin requirement of safety. Finally,the ultimate load test of the gondola is carried out to verify the safety of the gondola structure. Our study presents critical parameters for the gondola design,including load,structure,strength,and manufacturing process test,and provides certain references for the design of similar products.展开更多
