Multi-scale Product Design and Lifecycle Simulation System

抄録

It is important for product and material designers to forecast the performance and nature of the designing product early in the design process by computer simulation. The multi-scale product design and lifecycle simulation (MPDLS) system proposed here is a kind of multi-scale CAD system. The MPDLS system is designed to design the product or material across the micro-scale to the macro-scale continuously. Also, the MPDLS system includes product lifecycle simulation to estimates the ecological and economic efficiencies of the product. A MPDLS system prototype has been implemented using MPI-2.
