Dioscorea hispida is a poisonous plant normally found in forest where scientific studies have shown that its tuber contains toxic poison and can be consumed after its poison is removed. Traditionally the tubers were placed in flowing river water for several days. In the harvesting aspect, an innovative hand tool were conceptually designed to replace the traditional hoe or “cangkul”. Using IMADA digital force gauge to measure the force required for pulling out the tuber and reverse engineering methods, an innovative hand tool were designed and developed. The results from experiments showed that the force required for harvesting the Dioscorea hispida tuber is found significant with its weight versus regression squared (R2) of 0.86. The information of optimum force required from field experiment is used to model the simulation and practicality in Computer Aided Design (CAD) environment system. The finite element on stress distribution on selected material of hand tool was simulated by uploading the material characteristic on simulation program embedded in Solidworks software. The end result of the simulation is based on visualization of analysis in Solidworks while producing the hand tool for designing and fabrication from material which is lighter and stronger.

FEA is used in this research to describe the stress distribution of a seizure on a piston four stroke engine. Computer-aided design (CAD) software is used to do the finite element analysis. The major goal is to explore and analyse the thermal stress distribution of the piston during the combustion process in a real engine. The mesh optimization is described in this study, which uses a finite element analysis technique to anticipate the component's greater stress and critical region. The piston's upper end, which includes the piston head/crown, as well as the piston skirt and sleeve, is optimised to reduce stress concentration. The structural model of a piston will be developed using computer-aided design (CAD) and Pro/ENGINEER software. Furthermore, the finite element analysis was carried out with the ANSYS software.

The application of computer-aided design and manufacturing techniques is becoming essential in modern metal-forming technology. Thus process modeling for the determination of deformation mechanics has been a major concern in research . In light of these developments, the finite element method--a technique by which an object is decomposed into pieces and treated as isolated, interacting sections--has steadily assumed increased importance. This volume addresses advances in modern metal-forming technology, computer-aided design and engineering, and the finite element method.

Recently, studies concerning motorcycle have been an overwhelming area of research interest. As an alternative to the real world assessment, researchers have utilized motorcycle simulator as a workstation to conduct studies in the motorcycle niche area. This paper deal with the development of a new motorcycle simulator named Semi-Interface Motorcycle Simulator (SiMS). Combination of Computer Aided Design (CAD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software made it possible to design and simulates the motorcycle simulator’s conceptual design before being fabricated. The SiMS setup not only provides a near-to-real and immerse motorcycle riding experience on a super sport motorcycle model, but it also allows safer high speed motorcycle simulations to be conducted in a controlled environment that is portable and ergonomically easier to transport to various venues.
