OBJECTIVE:-
DESCRIPTION:-
I-DEAS
(Integrated Design, Engineering, and Analysis Software) is a collection of
applications that share a master model that is, a solid model that can be
associated with various applications.
The master model is:
i) created and documented in Design
ii) analyzed in Simulation
iii) machined in Manufacturing
Each application has concurrent access to the master model.
Concurrent Engineering
When the master model changes, I-DEAS automatically updates:
i) drawings
ii) finite element models
iii) tool paths
This associativity allows multiple users to work concurrently.
RESULT:
EXPERIMENT NO. 2
OBJECTIVE :
pull-down menus
task icons
application icons
common icons.
i) Use the graphics window to create, select, and modify graphical entities,
and do most of your work. Cascading menus and pop-up menus, when
displayed, appear in this window.
ii) The Prompt window displays information that tells you what to do to
complete a process or task. You can respond to the prompt by entering data
on the command line.
iii) The List window displays important data about your process or the data
entities youve created.
USE YOUR MOUSE TO PICK MODELING ENTITIES:
i) Generally, if you can see it, you can pick it. Just put your pointer on the
entity and press the left mouse button. The entity will highlight to show that
its selected.
ii) To pick more than one entity at a time, hold the Shift key while picking,
or drag a box around several nearby entities. Pick a selected entity to
deselect it.
If you cant see something that you want to pick, use dynamic viewing to
change your view of the workbench. Frequently, you can simply rotate your
view or zoom in or out to see the entity that you want to pick.
i) To control dynamic viewing, press and hold down a function key and
move your mouse.
ii) Use F3 to do X,Y, or Z rotation. If the cursor is within 80% of the
viewport center, the mouse controls X and Y rotation. If the cursor is outside
the 80% circle, rotations are performed about the screen Z axis as you move
the mouse in a circular motion.
iii) Use F4 to automatically rotate your view to the nearest standard view.
For example, if the closest standard view is the front view, picking F4
automatically gives you a front view.
In addition to the function keys already mentioned, you also can use the
function keys shown above. These keys mimic frequently used mouse

OBJECTIVE :
IN MORE DETAIL:
Sketchplanes can be:
Part face
Reference geometry
Coordinate system
Workplane
(workplanes are not
associative)
2D wireframe shapes:
Lines
Arcs
Splines
Ellipses
Constraints:
2D geometric or
dimensional
Can match dimensions or
use equations
DYNAMIC NAVIGATOR:
When youre sketching on the workplane, the Dynamic Navigator can help
you:
i) navigate to logical engineering positions relative to previously sketched
wireframe
ii) add constraints
iii) add dimensions
The Dynamic Navigator is your assistant. If its not providing the kind of
feedback you want or the types of constraint assignments youre looking for,
you can modify its behavior using the right mouse button.
CONSTRAINTS
Add or remove constraints to ensure your design intent, so that your
wireframe behaves predictably. If wireframe is not fully constrained, its still
free to move. You should anchor your wireframe and add constraints and
dimensions until your wireframe is fully constrained.

EXPERIMENT NO.4
OBJECTIVE: To learn to create a Finite Element (FE) model and define new material
properties
DESCRIPTION: The traditional approach for validating a design is to build a prototype
and test it. If the test reveals problems with the design, the design should be
changed, and a new prototype should be developed and tested. An
alternative approach is to use finite element analysis (FEA). FEA has some
of the following benefits:
i) simulates how your product will perform in a virtual environment
ii) reduces product cost and development time by reducing prototypes
iii)optimizes the design
DEFINITION
Finite element analysis is the process by which you break a continuous
structure into a finite number of regions, or elements. Each element:
i) is a mathematical representation of a discrete portion of the physical
structure
ii) has an assumed displacement interpolation function
FEA consists of a computer model of a material or design that is stressed
and analyzed for specific results. It is used in new product design, and
existing product refinement. A company is able to verify a proposed design
will be able to perform to the client's specifications prior to manufacturing
or construction. Modifying an existing product or structure is utilized to
qualify the product or structure for a new service condition. In case of
structural failure, FEA may be used to help determine the design
modifications to meet the new condition.
There are generally two types of analysis that are used in industry: 2-D
modeling, and 3-D modeling. While 2-D modeling conserves simplicity and
allows the analysis to be run on a relatively normal computer, it tends to
yield less accurate results. 3-D modeling, however, produces more accurate
results while sacrificing the ability to run on all but the fastest computers
effectively. Within each of these modeling schemes, the programmer can
insert numerous algorithms (functions) which may make the system behave
linearly or non-linearly. Linear systems are far less complex and generally
do not take into account plastic deformation. Non-linear systems do account
for plastic deformation, and many also are capable of testing a material all
the way to fracture.
Creating A FE Model
To build a finite element model (FEM), use Create FE Model. The
following are characteristics of FEMs in I-DEAS:
i)You can create a FEM of a part or an assembly. A part should be named
before you create a FEM.
ii)A FEM is associated to a part. You can create as many FEMs of a part as
necessary.
iii)Only one FEM can be on the workbench at a time.
iv)FEMs can be checked into and out of libraries.
SPECIFY THE MATERIAL
When you select Create FE Model, youll be able to:
i)specify the part or assembly for the FEM
ii) specify the part material (If no material is specified, the default STEEL
will be used.)
iii) name the FEM
EXPERIMENT NO. 5
OBJECTIVE :
DESCRIPTION:- FEA uses a complex system of points called nodes which make a grid
called a mesh . This mesh is programmed to contain the material and
structural properties which define how the structure will react to certain
loading conditions. Nodes are assigned at a certain density throughout the
material depending on the anticipated stress levels of a particular area.
Regions which will receive large amounts of stress usually have a higher
node density than those which experience little or no stress. Points of
interest may consist of: fracture point of previously tested material, fillets,
corners, complex detail, and high stress areas. The mesh acts like a spider
web in that from each node, there extends a mesh element to each of the
adjacent nodes. This web of vectors is what carries the material properties
to the object, creating many elements.
PROCEDURE:1. Sketch the closed figure shown below, dimension it.
2. Extrude the wireframe using the value of 40mm (say).
3. Name the part.
4.
Create a
finite element (FE) model to associate with the part.
FEA has become a solution to the task of predicting failure due to unknown
stresses by showing problem areas in a material and allowing designers to see
all of the theoretical stresses within. The displayed FE model.
