Abstract
There is a need to provide a design support system and a method thereof that extract common parts in consideration of relation to the performance. An apparatus and a method acquire common parts using multi-objective optimization. Specifically, a design support system using common parts and a method thereof include the following means. One means enters information about a shape model, an analysis condition, and an optimization condition. Another means uses multi-objective genetic algorithm to perform optimization. Still another means groups a Pareto solution as an acquired optimization result, analyzes dispersion of design variables, and associates them with a shape model. Yet another means displays common parts.

A design support system to acquire common parts, comprising:
- an input portion that accepts information about a shape model to extract common parts, an analysis condition, and an optimization condition;
- an optimization portion that references the information and performs multi-objective optimization;
- an evaluation portion that groups a Pareto solution as an acquired optimization result, analyzes dispersion of design variables, associates design variables with a shape model, and extracts specifically associated parts as common parts;
- and
- a display portion that displays extracted common parts.
A design support system having a network, a computer connected to the network, and a terminal connected to the network, the design support system comprising:
- an input portion that accepts information about a shape model to extract common parts, an analysis condition, and an optimization condition from the terminal;
- an optimization portion that references the information and performs multi-objective optimization;
- an evaluation portion that groups a Pareto solution as an acquired optimization result, analyzes dispersion of design variables, associates design variables with a shape model, and extracts specifically associated parts as common parts;
- and
