The main purpose of this thesis was to check the robustness of a model, in other words, to check the model behaviour depending on the PMI data that the model had. However, to achieve this objective it was necessary to investigate and explain how to include “Product and Manufacturing Information” data in three-dimensional models as well as how to consider these data in “Finite Elements Analysis” in order to get the model results.
The definition of the PMI in three-dimensional models were made by using two tutorials, one for each CAD software used. In this case, Solidworks 2018 and Siemens NX 11.0. On the other hand, ANSYS software was used to simulate the model and configured to take in account PMI data that was included before.
As a result, the software gave the contact pressure behaviour of the model using a response surfaces in which some information stored in the model was considered. Therefore, the model robustness could be check and analysed.
In conclusion, the study shows the importance of considering PMI in any simulation of a model because otherwise the user could miss much information. In the same way, it would be interesting to make a real world study to check the differences between the simulation and the manufactured part.
