Results from the course Collaborative Multi-Disciplinary Design Optimisation course.
The top three groups are the following (in no specific order). These 3 groups represent those who have shown examplary understanding of MDO and as a group were able to successfully divide and execute the various tasks given to them by the course coordinators.
Inspired by the Munich olympic park and the legendary Frei Otto, this group has created a truly amazing automated design which is able to automatically instantiated tensile structures on extreme design surfaces. Enjoy the video!
Easily transform you conceptual tower. Then automatically instantiate the complete structure AND all the window which are placed upon the generated structure. A great example of instantiation upon instantiation. Amazing project!
Perfectly executed model which is able to automatically generate a tower with individually instantiated windows which differ in size and and shape depending on the placement, segment shape and so on. Also a great example of instantiation upon instantiation. Really well done!
A great project with the possibility to generate a stadium including the roof structure as well as the actual seats. Would be a great tool to use in conceptual designs for new stadiums!
A great project which is able to automatically generate a very complex stadium structure. Really well done!
Wadala Tower project is an amazing implementation of how structural elements can be automatically instantiated on conceptual and complex geometries. The result of this project is impressive.
The LiU Zeppelin project is a great example of how repetitive processes can be automatically configured. Here the best examples are the outer plates as well as the inner structure.
The Colosseum of Rome is a very well executed project where both the shape and elements of the colosseum are user choices. The various elements of the colosseum can be automatically selected and placed out by the user in order to retrieve the final model.
With the Immersive Train project, the user is able to chose train type, chair type and windows to intuitively configure a unique layout. One of the best features of this project is that new CAD models can be added to the library for configuration, not locking the user to a pre-set CAD library.
The Legendary Warbirds project is a balanced result of great CAD modeling and automation of repetitive CAD elements. The participants have been able to model and automatically configure conceptual structure of a WWII like Aircraft.
Part of the result of the Product Modeling Course TMKT57 at Linköping University. Top 10 result will follow in the coming days…
Imagine a greatly complex product. Now imagine this product generated 100% automatically with insane detail level. This is perfect!
The goal was to generate the most common types of Ferris Wheels. This was accomplished by identifying the critical features and determine the sequence of how the main parts of the product should be instantiated. This process is well defined and it works elegantly as the users can setup their custom made Ferris Wheel!
On third place we have two groups as well. Both groups have of course very good modeling and programming implemented in their respective projects.
Specifically, the Infinity bridge project has been able to create a robust and flexible solution for a design which can seem simple but is in fact very complicated. The Roller Coaster is also a complex product and what earns this project a spot 3 place is their way to portray and manage their product in their user interface.
This project is well executed and a perfect example of how design automation can be implemented. Repetitive operations are automated to generate conceptual Caravan instances.
On 5th place we have two projects this year, which although worked with different products, still had similarities. Both project succeeded in executing there modeling and automation in a way so that the end results stayed true to the product which was chosen. London Eye and IJ Bridge have never been as robust, flexible and incredible!

We thank Andreas Engström for the renderings this year.
One of the most exciting results in 2013 year´s Product Modeling course was the two groups creating automated Eiffel tower generators in CATIA V5. The interviews made by LiU-Nytt Monica Westman is found here
One of the top 2013 year´s Product Modeling student results is the customized guitar project. For more information click on the picture.
From this years Product Modeling course a selected number of projects will be showcased here. Furthermore the top student groups will be further recognized.
