Active DOE

BETA CAE Systems USA is introducing a new DOE automation tool for multidisciplinary shape optimization and stochastic and robustness analysis which will help any user to perform a Robustness study using DOE and reduces the setup time by at least 85%. The Active DOE Automation process tool will help engineers to enhance their current work-flow related with the robust and multidisciplinary optimization using GUI driven automated process. This work-flow will not only automate the process but also improve the productivity of the users by giving them a user friendly GUI driven plug-in inside ANSA which allows them to follow a standardized procedure and avoid user errors.

Active DOE Automation functions completely within ANSA

Automated Functionality

Automated DOE Matrix generation
Morphing library for shape optimization
Approximation model building
Robustness assessment
Multi-disciplinary optimization
Automated results post-processing
User defined decision making
Creating and submitting evaluation runs from optimizer
Overlay responses for generated designs

Benefits of Active DOE Automation Tool

Reduces 85% of DOE Setup time
ANSA model as a single source of truth (Common Model)
Eliminates human error because the process guides the user and doesn’t allow the mistakes to happen
Users can easily manage big projects as the entire process is standardized with the help of a Automated GUI
Communication between various software is automated using established virtual hand shakes
No Optimizer GUI to learn
No knowledge of Optimization and Monte Carlo problem formulation is required
Dynamics status colour coding for each function
