Accelerating Metal-to-Plastic Conversion with AI, Implicit CAD, and Mesh-Free Simulation

Presentation Abstract

This work presents a simulation-driven generative design framework for reengineering a metallic explosion-proof enclosure into a lightweight, injection-molded fiber-reinforced plastic alternative. The methodology integrates advanced process and performance simulations with AI-guided optimization to enable rapid, intelligent design iteration.

Central to this workflow is the use of implicit CAD modeling in nTop, which allows for highly flexible and parameterized geometry generation, seamlessly...
