Overview

Computational study demonstrates unified multi-physics simulation across distinct engineering software platforms, highlighting autonomous execution through constraint hypergraphs.

Key Points

To establish a general-purpose declarative modeling framework using constraint hypergraphs that autonomously coordinates disparate engineering simulation tools for multi-physics and multi-scale systems.
Deconstructed system physics into state variables and functional relationships represented within a constraint hypergraph.
Integrated software application programming interfaces (APIs) as inter-variable functions to allow automated discovery and execution of simulation sequences.
Coupled three external engineering tools—Onshape (CAD), Ansys Mechanical (FEA), and MATLAB (kinematics)—into a single model of a piston engine crankshaft.
Achieved autonomous multi-physics simulation by programmatically coordinating solid geometry, kinematic analysis, and structural mechanics without manual data transfer.
Demonstrated declarative model execution across previously sequestered software platforms while revealing cross-cutting physical interactions.
