Solution Overview
Problem
The existing method of manually inputting embossment designs and equipment schemes into simulation software for server chassis strength simulation is time-consuming and inefficient, often resulting in suboptimal design selection due to the extensive simulation time required for hundreds or thousands of combinations.
Innovation Solution
An embossment simulating method that integrates with an electronic device, utilizing a processor and storage medium to automate the simulation process by converting design parameters into machine language, batch processing, and storing results in a database, allowing for one-step import and output, thereby reducing simulation time and improving efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If manual input method is used to simulate embossment designs, then simulation accuracy can be maintained, but simulation time increases significantly (1210 hours for 2420 groups)
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a database template that stores standardized embossment design parameters and equipment scheme configurations. Instead of manually inputting each design group individually, the system copies and reuses the template structure, automatically filling in varying parameters. This copying mechanism maintains simulation accuracy while dramatically reducing the time required to process 2420 groups of designs from 1210 hours to approximately 20.8 hours.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary organization of embossment design data and equipment scheme parameters into a structured database template before the actual simulation process. By pre-configuring the data structure, parameter relationships, and simulation settings in advance, the system eliminates the need for repeated manual setup during each simulation run, thereby reducing total simulation time while preserving accuracy.
2Loss of time
If engineers manually select a few groups from hundreds or thousands of designs for simulation, then simulation time is reduced, but the selected design may not be the optimal one
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables comprehensive simulation of hundreds or thousands of embossment design groups by systematically varying key parameters (such as embossment depth, spacing, pattern geometry) within the database template. The automated system efficiently processes parameter changes across all design groups, allowing engineers to evaluate the full design space rather than selecting only a few groups manually. This ensures that the optimal design is identified based on actual simulation results rather than subjective selection, thereby improving design selection quality while keeping simulation time manageable through automation.
3Reliability
If comprehensive simulation of hundreds or thousands of embossment design groups is performed manually, then design selection quality improves, but work efficiency decreases significantly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical process of inputting and processing embossment design data with an automated computer-based system. The database template stores design parameters in a structured format that can be automatically processed by simulation software, eliminating the need for manual data entry and processing for each of the hundreds or thousands of design groups. This substitution of manual mechanical work with automated computational processes enables comprehensive simulation of all design groups while dramatically improving work efficiency from 1210 hours to approximately 20.8 hours.

AI summary
A method for fast simulation of possible embossments or pressings of a server casing in manufacture includes obtaining a first design table of design layout scheme; converting machine language for each group of layout schemes in the first design table to import the first design table into a simulation software. Each group of the embossment design layout schemes is simulated to obtain chassis strength or of part of chassis, and each group of the embossment design layout scheme and corresponding chassis strength is stored to the database and identical stored schemes are filtered out. The disclosure also provides an electronic device and a non-transitory storage medium.
