Research on Remote Optimization System for Key Parts of Large Scale Plastic Mold
A remote finite element optimization system for key parts of large scale plastic mold is described. The functions of the system are realized using ASP.NET, SQL Server database and ANSYS optimum design. The parameters of geometry, material, load, and optimization are input on the web page. The system can query material properties of the mold, such as modulus of elasticity and Poisson's ratio from the material parameters query system. The key parts of the large scale plastic mold are modeled parametrically by the ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL). The codes of parametric modeling are encapsulated on the server. The parametric model reads and optimizes these parameters by the remote server. The optimum result could be browsed on the web page. The system lowers the demands of the relative knowledge about ANSYS which the designer should have.
