[0026] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a flow chart of a method for processing a whole vehicle finite element model according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0027] The whole vehicle finite element model is a model established when using the finite element analysis method. It is a group of unit combinations that are connected only at nodes, transmit forces only at nodes, and are constrained only at nodes. It can be used to analyze the dynamic performance, static and dynamic characteristics, and structural optimization of the vehicle. The whole vehicle finite element model includes vehicle subsystems such as the body in white, doors, hoods, and subframes. In the embodiment of the present application, the whole vehicle finite element model includes a first subsystem and a second subsystem, wherein the first subsystem and the second subsystem can be any two subsystems to be connected in the vehicle subsystems such as the body in white, doors, hoods, and subframes.

[0028] The method can be performed by an electronic device with computing functions, such as a microcomputer, a server, and a mobile device such as a laptop computer or a tablet computer. It should be noted that if the results are substantially the same, the method of the present application is not limited to the above. Figure 1 The process sequence shown is limited.

[0029] In some possible implementations, the method may be implemented by a processor calling computer-readable instructions stored in a memory, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0030] S11: Acquire a first reference point set of the first subsystem.

[0031] Obtain a first reference point set for the first subsystem, for example, obtain the coordinate information of the connection points in the first subsystem used to connect with other subsystems, establish node points for connection through the coordinate information, and the node points constitute the first reference point set of the first subsystem; or, establish node points for connection through the coordinate information, and convert the obtained node points into A-point type points, thereby obtaining the first reference point set of the first subsystem, wherein the A-point type points include information such as the connection relationship and connection form of the node points.

[0032] For example, the first subsystem may be a door subsystem, and the first reference point set of the first subsystem includes at least one first reference point (Connect_point) in the door subsystem for connecting with other subsystems. For example, the first reference point set SET_NODE 1 includes {CP1, CP2, CP3...CPn}.

[0033] S12: Acquire a second reference point set of the second subsystem.

[0034] Obtain a second reference point set for the second subsystem. For example, obtain the coordinate information of the connection points in the second subsystem used to connect with other subsystems, establish nodes (node ​​points) for connection through the coordinate information, and the node points constitute the second reference point set of the second subsystem; or, establish node points for connection through the coordinate information, convert the obtained node points into A-point points to obtain the second reference point set of the second subsystem.

[0035] For example, the second subsystem may be a body-in-white subsystem, and the second reference point set of the second subsystem includes at least one second reference point (Connect_point) in the body-in-white subsystem for connecting with other subsystems. For example, the second reference point set SET_NODE 2 includes {CP1', CP2', CP3'...CPn'}.

[0036] S13: Based on the first reference point set and the second reference point set, generate a preset connection unit for the first subsystem and the second subsystem.

[0037] Based on the first reference point set of the first subsystem and the second reference point set of the second subsystem, a preset connection unit is generated, and the preset connection unit is used to connect the first subsystem and the second subsystem. For example, the preset connection unit can be a beam unit, wherein the beam unit can be used to simulate bolt connections between systems, etc.

[0038] S14: Generate a connection point set of the first subsystem based on the preset connection unit.

[0039] A connection point set of the first subsystem is generated based on a preset connection unit. For example, the connection nodes (node ​​points) on the preset connection unit are processed to obtain connection box (BOX) type data of the connection nodes on the preset connection unit, and the connection nodes located in the BOX are used as connection points of the first subsystem, thereby generating a connection point set of the first subsystem, for example, the connection point set SET_NODE 3 includes {N1, N2, N3...Nn}.

[0040] S15: Matching the first reference point set with the connection point set to achieve connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem.

[0041] The first reference point set is used to match the connection point set. For example, if the first reference point CP1 in the first reference point set is successfully matched with the connection point N1 in the connection point set (for example, the first reference point CP1 coincides with the connection point N1), the first reference point CP1 has a connection attribute consistent with the connection point N1, and then the first reference point CP1 on the first subsystem can be connected to the second subsystem. The first reference point set and the connection point set are identified and matched in turn, so that the connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem can be achieved, wherein the preset connection information includes the *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection information in the finite element software, etc.

[0042] In this embodiment, a first reference point set of the first subsystem and a second reference point set of the second subsystem are obtained, preset connection units of the first subsystem and the second subsystem are generated based on the first reference point set and the second reference point set, and a connection point set of the first subsystem is generated based on the preset connection units. Then, the preset connection units and the connection point sets are used to connect the subsystems, thereby improving the modeling efficiency and accuracy of the finite element model of the whole vehicle. That is, in the process of finite element modeling, there is no need to manually check the connections of the subsystems one by one, thereby improving the efficiency of the simulation analysis of the whole vehicle.

[0043] In some embodiments, based on the first reference point set and the second reference point set, a preset connection unit for the first subsystem and the second subsystem is generated, including: based on the first reference point in the first reference point set, selecting a target second reference point from the second reference point set, the target second reference point is used to connect the first subsystem; based on the first reference point and the target second reference point, establishing a preset connection unit, wherein the preset connection unit includes a connection node, and the connection node corresponds to the first reference point in the first reference point set.

[0044] Based on the first reference point in the first reference point set, a target second reference point is selected from the second reference point set, and the target second reference point is used to connect the first subsystem. For example, a connection node is generated based on the first reference point, and the second reference point used to connect with the first subsystem is selected in the second reference point set in turn according to the connection node. Further, a preset connection unit is established based on the first reference point and the target second reference point, for example, a beam unit for connecting the first subsystem and the second subsystem is established using the connection node corresponding to the first reference point and the target second reference point, wherein the beam unit can be used to simulate bolt connections between systems, etc.

[0045] It can be understood that in the relevant application, taking the processing of the second subsystem as an example, the position information of the first reference point is obtained by importing the first reference point set of the first subsystem, and then the connection node (node ​​point) is mapped and generated at the corresponding position in the second subsystem. At this time, the preset connection unit can be generated by the connection node corresponding to the first reference point and the corresponding second reference point, such as Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of a preset connection unit of an embodiment of the present application, and a corresponding beam unit is generated by selecting a connection node n1 mapped by the first reference point CP1 in the second subsystem and a second reference point CP1' in the second subsystem for connecting with the first reference point CP1.

[0046] Further, in some embodiments, based on the preset connection unit, a connection point set of the first subsystem is generated, including: generating a connection box based on the connection node; using the connection node located in the connection box as the connection point of the first subsystem to generate a connection point set, wherein the connection point in the connection point set includes preset connection information of the connection box.

[0047] A connection box (BOX) is generated based on the connection nodes mapped by the first reference point on the preset connection unit. The connection nodes located in the connection box are used as the connection points of the first subsystem to generate a connection point set of the first subsystem, wherein the connection points in the connection point set include the preset connection information of the connection box, for example, a connection point set SET_NODE 3 is constructed based on the connection nodes falling into the BOX, and a *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection about the BOX is created based on the connection point set SET_NODE 3, so that the connection points in the connection point set SET_NODE 3 include the connection information of the BOX, wherein the preset connection information of the connection box is the *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection information of the connection box relative to other systems, and the *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection information between the connection nodes falling into the same BOX. The connection points in the connection point set can be understood as connection nodes with connection information of the connection box.

[0048] For example, in the second subsystem, the first reference point set of the first subsystem is imported, and the connection node n1 is generated by mapping the first reference point CP1 of the first subsystem, and then the beam unit of the connection node n1 and the second reference point CP1' is established. At the same time, BOX1 is generated based on the connection node n1, and the *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection about BOX 1 is automatically created for the connection node n1, that is, the connection point N1 is obtained.

[0049] When establishing the connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem, the first reference point set S1 of the first subsystem, the second reference point set S2 of the second subsystem, and the connection point set S3 of the first subsystem are respectively imported, wherein S1 includes the first reference point CP1, S2 includes the second reference point CP1', and S3 includes the connection point N1. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the effect of processing the finite element model of the whole vehicle in an embodiment of the present application. Since the first reference point CP1 falls on BOX 1 (in some cases, the first reference point CP1 coincides with the connection point N1), the connection point set S3 created based on BOX 1 will be automatically updated, that is, the first reference point CP1 will also be added to S3, and then the related *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection will be automatically updated, so that CP1 also has the same BOX 1 connection information as N1. Therefore, the first reference point CP1 has the same connection attributes as the connection point N1. Further, the first reference point CP1 can be connected to the second reference point CP1'.

[0050] In this embodiment, a connection box is generated by utilizing the connection nodes on a preset connection unit, and the connection nodes located in the connection box are used as connection points of the first subsystem to generate a connection point set for the first subsystem, wherein the connection points in the connection point set include preset connection information of the connection box, so that the connection nodes falling into the connection box are automatically connected, thereby improving the modeling efficiency and accuracy of the finite element model of the entire vehicle.

[0051] In some embodiments, the connection box is connected based on the connection node, including establishing a connection box of a preset size with the connection node as the center. For example, a 1mm×1mm×1mm BOX is established with the connection node n1 as the center, and a *CONSTRA INED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection about BOX is created for the connection node n1. It can be understood that the connection point set is defined by the BOX type data, so that the connection nodes that fall into the BOX later have corresponding connection attributes.

[0052] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 The flowchart of the method for generating the whole vehicle finite element model of the embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. 1 . The method can be applied to electronic devices with computing functions. The whole vehicle finite element model includes at least two subsystems. For example, the whole vehicle finite element model includes vehicle subsystems such as the body in white, doors, hood, and subframe. It should be noted that if there are substantially the same results, the method of the present application is not based on Figure 4 The process sequence shown is limited.

[0053] In some possible implementations, the method may be implemented by a processor calling computer-readable instructions stored in a memory, such as Figure 4 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0054] S41: Acquire preset connection information of each subsystem in at least two subsystems.

[0055] The preset connection information of the subsystem includes at least the reference point set information, connection point set information, corresponding *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection information, etc. of the subsystem.

[0056] S42: Based on the preset connection information, at least two subsystems are connected to obtain a finite element model of the entire vehicle.

[0057] For example, the preset connection information of all subsystems of the whole vehicle finite element model is obtained to connect all subsystems, thereby completing the construction of the whole vehicle finite element model, wherein the connection of each subsystem in all subsystems is achieved through the above-mentioned processing method of the whole vehicle finite element model, which will not be repeated here.

[0058] Further, in some embodiments, a reference point set of a subsystem is obtained; and a target node is obtained using the reference points in the reference point set of the subsystem to generate a node set of the subsystem, wherein the nodes in the node set include node connection information, and the node connection information is used to achieve self-connection of each subsystem in at least two subsystems.

[0059] Obtain the reference point set of the subsystem, for example, obtain the coordinate information of the connection points in the subsystem used to connect with other subsystems, establish the node points used for connection through the coordinate information, and convert the obtained node points into A-point type points, thereby obtaining the reference point set of the subsystem, wherein the A-point type points include the connection relationship of the node points, the connection form and other information.

[0060] The reference points in the reference point set of the subsystem are used to obtain the target node to generate the node set of the subsystem. For example, in the subsystem, the target node is selected by using the reference point identification, that is, the nodes that meet the conditions around the reference point are used as the target node, and a *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection is created for the obtained target node of the subsystem, thereby generating the node set of the subsystem. The nodes in the node set include node connection information, for example, the nodes include their corresponding *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection information, and the node connection information is used to realize the self-connection of each subsystem in at least two subsystems.

[0061] In some embodiments, the reference points include shell type points and entity type points; wherein the target node includes at least one of the following: a node on a hole in the shell type point; a node adjacent to the hole in the shell type point; a node inside a pipe in the entity type point.

[0062] The subsystem's reference points include at least shell (SHELL) type points and solid (SOLID) type points. For example, in the corresponding subsystem, nodes that meet the conditions around the reference point are used as target nodes, and the target nodes include at least one of the nodes on the hole in the shell type point, the nodes adjacent to the hole in the shell type point, and the nodes in the tube in the solid type point. For example, for a shell type unit (shell type point), if a hole (Hole) is identified at a certain distance around the reference point, the node on the hole is used as the target node, and the hole can be a hole on a component such as a hinge; for a shell type unit, if a washer is identified, the node on the hole corresponding to the washer is used as the target node; for a solid type unit (solid type point), if a tube (Tube) is identified at a certain distance around the reference point, the node in the tube is used as the target node.

[0063] For example, for a shell type unit, if a hole is identified at a certain distance around the reference point, the node on the hole is used as the target node, such as Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the target node of the embodiment of the present application, identifying a hole H1 at a certain distance around the reference point CP, and then determining multiple nodes n' in the hole H1 as target nodes, and creating a *CONSTRAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connection for the identified target node (such as Figure 5 The node set of the subsystem is obtained, and the reference points in the subsystem are processed in sequence to realize the self-connection of the subsystem. The self-connection can be understood as the rigid connection of the components in the subsystem.

[0064] Furthermore, in some embodiments, it is determined whether the connection between the at least two subsystems is successful based on the connection box information of the at least two subsystems.

[0065] For example, after completing the connection of all subsystems of the vehicle finite element model, the connection box information of all subsystems is obtained, such as determining the number of nodes in the connection box to determine whether the connection between at least two subsystems is successful.

[0066] The connection box information includes the number of BOXes used for connection in the vehicle finite element model, the number of BOXes with 0 nodes, the number of BOXes with 1 nodes, the number of BOXes with 2 nodes, the number of BOXes with more than 2 nodes, etc. Among them, you can check how many connection nodes fall into the BOX to determine whether the connection is successful. For example, if there are two points in the BOX, it is the correct state; if there is only one point or no point, an error is reported during calculation and it needs to be checked and modified; if there are more than two points, there may be multiple connections to the surrounding parts. The check function can be used to quickly locate the error type and make corrections.

[0067] Among them, if the number of connection nodes in the BOX is 2, it can be judged that the connection box is normal and the subsystem is connected successfully. Taking the connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem as an example, the first reference point set of the first subsystem and the second reference point set of the second subsystem are obtained, as well as the connection point set about the first subsystem generated in the second subsystem, wherein a beam unit is established between the connection point in the connection point set of the first subsystem and the second reference point in the second reference point set, and the connection point includes the preset connection information of the corresponding connection box. When connecting the first subsystem to the second subsystem, only the first reference point of the first subsystem will fall in the same connection box with the corresponding connection point, and then the first reference point is successfully connected to the corresponding second reference point.

[0068] For ease of understanding, the connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem in the embodiment of the present application is illustrated by way of example. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 It is a flow chart of a method for generating a whole vehicle finite element model according to another embodiment of the present application.

[0069] S61: Acquire a first reference point set and a first node set of a first subsystem.

[0070] In the first system, a first reference point set and a first node set are obtained by processing the first subsystem, wherein the first node set is obtained by searching based on the first reference point set and is used for self-connection of the first subsystem.

[0071] S62: Acquire a second reference point set and a second node set of the second subsystem, and a connection point set of the first subsystem.

[0072] In the second system, the second subsystem is processed to obtain a second reference point set and a second node set, wherein the second node set is obtained based on the search of the second reference point set and is used to perform self-connection of the second subsystem. Further, the first reference point set of the first subsystem is obtained, and the first reference point set and the second reference point set are used to generate a preset connection unit of the first subsystem and the second subsystem, thereby generating a connection point set of the first subsystem.

[0073] S63: Establish a connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem.

[0074] The first node set is used for self-connection of the first subsystem, and the second node set is used for self-connection of the second subsystem. The first reference point set is matched with the connection point set so that the reference points in the first reference point set have the connection properties of the connection points in the connection point set, thereby realizing the connection between the first subsystem and the second subsystem.

[0075] It should be noted that the operation steps in this application such as identifying / selecting connection nodes, creating *CONST RAINED_NODAL_RIGID_BODY connections, generating preset connection units for the first subsystem and the second subsystem can be implemented in relevant hardware / software by compiling scripts in a programming language (for example, Python, etc.).

[0076] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in the above method of specific implementation, the order in which the steps are written does not imply a strict execution order and does not constitute any limitation on the implementation process. The specific execution order of the steps should be determined by their functions and possible internal logic.
