[C.E.2.1] INTRODUCTION: Project Title : Design and Load Analysis of Storage Bins Using CREO 2.0 and CATIA V5 R18 Software. Duration of Project: March 2010 to May 2010 Organization : Swinburne University of Technology (SUT), Melbourne. Position : Team Leader Location : Industrial research institute, Swinburne University of technology, Melbourne, VIC, Australia [C.E.2.2] OVERVIEW: A project titled â€Å"Design and load analysis of storage bins using CREO 2.0 and CATIA V5 R18 software†. I carried out this project in order to fulfill the requirements for my first semester study during my Masters Degree. In this project a sheet metal component was designed and load analysis carried out using CATIA V5 R18. I selected a sheet metal storage bin†¦show more content†¦These results are from guidelines for the design and manufacturing department from Swinburne University of Technology. From this data designers could redesign or rework the component for better efficiency and better aesthetics. In this project I designed the component in CREO 2.0 and the model was then exported to an IGES format. The IGES file was then exported to CATIA V5 for further analysis. This helped me to determine the ideal combination of the part’s geometry design, material used, and ideal load conditions that would produce quality storage bins with the sheetmetal process. [C.E.2.4] ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE This project was carried out at the Faculty of Engineering and Research, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. I was guided by the CAD/CAM laboratory faculty at the University for this Project. The organization structure of the project is as follows: Prof. Syed Masood (Course Coordinator, Faculty of Engineering and Industrial Sciences) Prof. Romesh (Project Supervisor) Tim Barry (Research Fellow, Laboratory In Charge) SaiNarasimha Rao Maddali (Team Leader) Sajjie c.Joseph (Team Member) [C.E.2.5] COURSE OF ACTION: In this project I designed a sheetmetal component and static and thermal analysis using CATIA V5 was performed. The component selected for this project was a Sheet Metal storage bin. The steps carried out
