Description

Project MOnACO (Manufacturing Of a large-scale AM Component) is a $1.1 million research collaboration with GE Aviation et al. funded by the Clean Sky 2 program. The focus is to cut noise and emissions from the civil aerospace market using disruptive technologies. The aim is to converge design and manufacturing using the A.T.L.A.S. machine that’s currently the largest metal powder additive manufacturing of its kind (build size >1m). Autodesk is leading the design of the turbine center frame assembly using multiphysics Generative Design in Autodesk Fusion 360, the new product design extension for lattices and manufacturing simulation (Netfabb et al.) workflows geared toward large-scale additive manufacturing. The latest design is 34% lighter than its predecessor, and the components have been consolidated from 150 parts to a single part. In this talk, we’ll discuss how we applied Design for Additive Manufacturing (DfAM) workflows using Autodesk design and make tools to solve tomorrow's problems.

Key Learnings

  • Learn about solving sustainability challenges in the aviation industry using Autodesk “design and learn how to make” tools.
  • Learn how to apply generative design for lightweight structures.
  • Learn about implementing Generative Design on multiphysics problems.
  • Learn about how to apply design rules and guidelines for large-scale additive manufacturing.

Speakers

  • Nick Markovic
    I am a well-rounded individual with 8 years’ experience as a stress engineer coupled with a strong academic background. I have continuously broadened my engineering knowledge and gained key exposure in the aerospace, defence, rail, wind, oil and gas engineering markets. I am a specialist in both implicit and explicit finite element analysis techniques, with emphasis on non-linear analyses. I have recently joined Autodesk as a mechanical engineer in The Autodesk Advanced Consulting (AAC) team specializing in additive manufacturing and advanced simulations. I have joined AAC to maximize in-house knowledge of stress and structural analysis and bring key industry experience to the team. I have a strong passion for the practical application of new and emerging technologies to help advance the design and manufacturing industry.
