“…imprinting the edge of a mid-surface onto the bounding face of an adjacent solid, which dictates the mesh pattern on the adjacent solid domain. Shephard [18] uses the same approach to generate a connection at a mixed-dimensional interface. The imprinting procedure can be avoided using the equivalencing techniques presented in this paper, removing the need for editing the geometry.…”

“…Shephard et al [18] describe methods to integrate tools between CAD and CAE disciplines. This approach does not link the different design and analysis models, but attempts to automate the different tools required to derive a model for a downstream analysis application.…”

“…The use of a simulation in the design stage is not a new concept (Shephard et al, 2004). By using a simulation in the design stage, the system designer could experiment with various combinations of designs, which enables him or her to modify the design plan so that he or she can produce desirable outputs.…”

Jakarta International Container Terminal (JICT), which is the main international port of Indonesia, is overcrowded and is going to be expanded. Various expansion plans are considered, so the aim of the current paper is to simulate the plans using an agent-based modeling approach. The plans are treated as scenarios in the agent-based simulation model. Then, the throughputs from all scenarios are compared. The comparison shows that some of the plans can support the JICT vision. The results can be used as an input for the decision maker to either choose one of the plans or renegotiate the plans to achieve results that greatly support the JICT vision.

“…As such, the application of error functions may be constrained to cases where these issues are not restrictive. Due to market pressure to reduce prototype testing in the product development cycle, resources dedicated for improving confidence in virtual simulations can be more justifiable (Shephard et al 2004). Besides, the culture inherent in a company is often difficult to change, but change may still take place slowly with some resistance.…”

Development and characterisation of error functions in design

Abstract:As simulation is increasingly used in product development, there is a need to better characterise the errors inherent in simulation techniques by comparing such techniques with evidence from experiment, test and in-service. This is necessary to allow judgement of the adequacy of simulations in place of physical tests and to identify situations where further data collection and experimentation need to be expended. This paper discusses a framework for uncertainty characterisation based on the management of design knowledge leading to the development and characterisation of error functions. A classification is devised in the framework to identify the most appropriate method for the representation of error, including probability theory, interval analysis and Fuzzy set theory. The development is demonstrated with two case studies to justify rationale of the framework. Such formal knowledge management of design simulation processes can facilitate utilisation of cumulated design knowledge as companies migrate from testing to simulation-based design.
