Abstract
A method for determining a weaving map of a zone of a part to be manufactured in a woven composite material, includes receiving a representation of the zone of the part; receiving predefined values of parameters relating to manufacturing constraints in the zone of the part; determining, from the representation and from a first subset of values from among the received predefined values, a weaving grid of the zone of the part, the weaving grid including a plurality of cells; and successively determining, for each cell of the weaving grid, a respective weaving composition compatible with a second subset of values from among the received predefined values.
Claims13
A computer-implemented method for determining a weaving map of a zone of a part to be manufactured in a woven composite material, comprising:
- receiving a representation of said zone of the part;
- receiving predefined values of parameters relating to manufacturing constraints of the zone of the part;
- determining, from the representation of the zone of the part and a first subset of values among the predefined values received, a weaving grid of the zone of the part, the weaving grid comprising a plurality of cells;
- and
- successively determining, for each cell of the weaving grid, a respective weaving composition compatible with a second subset of values among the predefined values received;
- wherein the determining of a weaving composition for a current cell of the weaving grid depends on a weaving composition already determined for a cell of the weaving grid adjacent to the current cell;
- and
- wherein the weaving map of the zone of the part comprises the cells of the weaving grid and the respective weaving compositions.
A device for determining a weaving map of a zone of a part to be manufactured in a woven composite material, comprising:
- an input interface for receiving a representation of said zone of the part and predefined values of parameters relating to manufacturing constraints of the zone of the part;
- at least one circuit for:
- determining, from the representation of the zone of the part and a first subset of values among the predefined values received, a weaving grid of the zone of the part, the weaving grid comprising a plurality of cells;
- and
- successively determining, for each cell of the weaving grid, a respective weaving composition compatible with a second subset of values among the predefined values received;
- wherein the determining of the weaving composition for a current cell of the weaving grid depends on a weaving composition already determined for a cell of the weaving grid adjacent to the current cell;
- and
- wherein the weaving map of the zone of the part comprises the cells of the weaving grid and the respective weaving compositions.
