1 A PARAMETRC MODELNG TECHNQUES FOR ARCRAFT STRUCTURES Elizabeth K Frey The Boeing Company St. Louis, MO Abstract Parametric solid modeling is a powerful tool that has helped to reduce design time significantly. The Design, Manufacturing, and Producibility Simulation (DMAPS) group at Boeing has been investigating the best ways to create parametric models using Unigraphics and then applying these methods to re-design projects and new design programs. The benefits of parametric modeling, how parametric models are being constructed, and examples of projects where parametric mcxleling techniques have been implemented will be discussed further. Basic Terminolonv Before covering the benefits of parametric ntroduction Parametric solid modeling is a powerful tool that has helped to reduce design time significantly. Different definitions exist for parametric modeling. n this paper, parametric modeling refers to a solid model that has been constructed with features and sketches in order to make changes easily. These changes are done by modifying expression values, which control features, or by modifying characteristics of the features themselves. Unigrapbics provides many useful capabilities; however, it has taken some time to learn how to best apply these tools to aircraft structure with complicated moldline. The Design, Manufacturing, and Producibility Simulation (DMAPS) group at Boeing has been investigating the best ways to create parametric models using Unigraphics parametric capabilities and then applying it to re-design projects and new design programs. The benefits of parametric modeling, how parametric models are being constructed, and examples of projects where parametric modeling techniques have been implemented will be discussed further.

Parent/Child Feature Relationship. modeling (defined above) and how these models are constructed, we will define a few key terms. Features are various Unigraphics operations that are associated to each other,automatically upon creation. When the parent feature updates, then the child feature will also. For example, a block is extruded from a group of curves and comer and fillet blends are applied to the edges. Then, if the height of the extrusion changes, the blend will move also as shown in Figure 1. Expressions are mathematical equations used to represent various geometric characteristics of a part. For example web1 =. may be an expression in a part file representing the thickness of a web. This expression may be used to create an extrusion
2 Sketch Dimension Solid update when a strength engineer finishes sizing the part. When a part is modeled parametrically, all of the thickness values can be inputted at once into expression names representing each thickness. When the values are changed, then the solid model automatically updates as shown in Figure 3.,_.ti..,:..

Sketch Curve Modifications. feature. When an extrusion is created, several expressions are automatically generated to define the start and end distance. f these expressions are changed, the solid extrusion feature automatically updates. n the extrusion shown in Figure 1, web1 was the expression used for the start distance. Sketches are features that are attached to a solid planar face or to a datum plane. On this 2-D plane, sketch curves are drawn. Two types of constraints are then applied to the sketch curves, either dimensional or geometric. The sketch dimensions are also expressions. As shown in Figure 2, when a horizontal dimension was applied between two entities, an expression called pl=3 was created. When the value of pl was changed to 6, then the sketch curves moved, as well as any solids extruded from those sketch curves. Benefits. Figure 3. Expression Changes Control Hole Pad-up Width. Models can also be set up so that moldline surfaces on a part can be replaced by editing a trim feature. This is extremely beneficial because a designer can get started working on a part even though inner moldline definition may not be complete. Then, when inner moldline is complete, the solid can be updated to new surfaces quickly without reconstructing the entire part. See Figure 4. A typical machining can have nearly one hundred or more thickness values to maintain and 1412
3 Upper Moldline Surfa -- Changed By Editing 1 Feature 1 As one can see in Figure 5, the models were not simply translated into another position. However, they updated to moldline in the new location, stayed within the bounds of the torque box, and the rib teeth and lightening holes also readjusted. Once the models are in their new location, the features can be updated to account for differences at multiple locations in the tail. With the use of parametric capabilities, one model can be used to control the location of big bone structure within an assembly. These files are called Design Data Files and serve as the means of initial datum coordination. They basically contain several sketches. These sketches have lines that represent the main datums of big bone structure. The sketch dimensions locating these lines typically have descriptive expression names as shown in Figure 6. Figure 4. Upper Moldline Surface Change. Another benefit to parametric modeling is design reuse of models utilizing a technique that DMAPS refers to as part morphing. When there are similar parts, one part can be constructed in full detail. By changing the location parameter, the part can be morphed to the new location and reconstructed to the moldline definition at that location. Figure 5 shows how one model was used to construct 10 airload ribs on this horizontal tail torque box. Then the airload rib model was modified slightly and used to construct 8 Hinge ribs. Airload and Hinge Ribs Generated From 2 Morph Models 10 Airload Bibs n 2 Split Ribs Figure 5. Model TMorphed to Different Locations 1413 Sketch Curves Figure 6. Design Data File for Stabilizer. Other part files can access the values of the expressions in the Design Data File through the use of nter-part Expressions. A designer working on a detail rib model can link their model to one of the expressions in the DDF file. Therefore, the layout of an assembly can be controlled from one tile. When a sketch curve is moved in the DDF, the detail parts update. This is very helpful because designers can pull structural location information from one up-to date location. An interpart expression is not the only way Unigraphics allows information to be shared between part files. A module that can transfer geometry between files is currently being evaluated. The DDF will not only contain structural location information, but also features that establish a movable coordinate system when appropriate. For example, if a wing is in the early conceptual stages, then the angle of the wing may not be established.
4 Therefore, the wing coordinate system may need to be change occasionally. Procedure for Constructing~a Parametric Model As mentioned previously, a Design Data File is typically constructed first. When a detail part is started, the coordinate system information and necessary structural locations are created and linked back to the Design Data File using interpart expressions or by associatively copying geometry. A solid face or datum plane is constructed to represent the main datum of the part. Sketches are then attached to this solid face or datum plane and the sketch contains curves defining various features on a Part- Expressions are defined to describe part geometry. They are used in sketch dimensions and when creating features. The expression names can be coordinated with the strength engineer ahead of time. f the strength analysis is done in an Excel spreadsheet, then the expression values can be cut and pasted into a text tile. The text file is then imported into the Unigraphics part file, updating the solid automatically. See Figure 7. Moldline tool solids are created from sketch curves so that the part can be updated to a new surface later on. After the moldline tool solid is extruded, it is trimmed to the moldline surface. All solids defining moldline features on a part are trimmed to these moldl.ine tool solid faces. This procedure makes it possible to update a part to a new surface quickly simply by editing the trim feature on a moldline tool solid. For machinings, tool pocket solids are constructed and then subtracted out of a base solid. The tool pocket solids are extruded from sketch curves, trimmed to the moldline tool solid face, and then offset in order to create flange thickness. Of course, if the tool pocket solid does not create a moldline part feature, then trimming to the moldline tool solid face is unnecessary. All fillets and corner radii are applied directly to the tool pocket solids. An associative copy of the tool pocket solid is created. The copy is really subtracted out of the base solid. See Figure 8. pj Tool Solids Figure 8. Tool Pocket Solids. When a change needs to be made, the parent tool pocket solid is modified, and the part automatically updates to the change. The tool pocket solids that remain are used for downstream applications and for quick visualization of how the part was created (helpful to designers). AnDlications Of~~a~e~ics Figure 7. Strength Analysis Data to UG Part. n the past several years, parametric modeling has been used on redesign projects, trade study projects, and new design projects. Design times have been significantly reduced due to parametric modeling techniques. Figure 9 shows a few of the programs where pammetrics has been 1414
5 applied. On half of these programs, all of the structural models where fully paramteric. These programs have proven that parametric models can be generated with little detail initially, or a lot of detail, depending on program requirements. Details can be added or modified as the design evolves. These modifications can be done by modifying expression values, editing features, or adding features. See Figure 10. Figure 10. Details Added to Parametric Models. An important part of the success of these programs has been to provide the proper training and establish modeling practices early in the design program. Figure 9.
