Abstract
For many series of products that have a similar structure,it is easy to adjust the geometric model of products by using parametric design method.Based on the idea of the structure parametric design method in finite element analysis(FEA),the complicated FEA model can be created by adjusting several geometric parameters and the process of FEA is automatically executed.The remarkable effect of this method is that product structure can be optimized and design period will be shortened.APDL language in finite element software ANSYS is a powerful tool for parametric finite element analysis of part by using intelligent analysis method.This paper introduces the steps of developing parametric finite element analysis by APDL and put a cylinder spring as an example expatiates the realization process in detail.The results show that this method is very efficient in repeat work.
