Yaratıcı Endüstrilerde Endüstriyel Tasarım Mühendisliğinin Metodolojik Entegrasyonu

Öz

Bu çalışma, yaratıcı endüstrilerde inovasyonu hızlandırmak amacıyla Endüstriyel Tasarım Mühendisliği yaklaşımının, yapay zekâ tabanlı üretken (generative) tasarım teknolojisiyle entegrasyonunu motosiklet fren kaliperi braketi (Brackv2 v4) üzerinden incelemektedir. Mevcut manuel olarak tasarlanmış braket, Alüminyum 6061-T6 malzemesi için Autodesk Fusion 360 ortamında statik sonlu elemanlar analizi (FEA) ile değerlendirilmiştir. Uç frenleme senaryosunu temsil eden 2500 N'luk yük altında elde edilen bulgular, minimum güvenlik katsayısının (SF) 15,665, maksimum von Mises gerilmesinin 17,555 MPa (akma sınırının yaklaşık %6,4'ü) ve maksimum toplam yer değiştirmenin 0,022 mm olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu nicel sonuçlar, mevcut tasarımın aşırı güvenlik marjı barındırdığını ve üretken tasarım sürecinde kütle azaltımı için belirgin bir tasarım uzayı sunduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. CNC işleme, döküm ve 3B baskı olmak üzere üç farklı üretim yöntemi için üretken tasarım iş akışı ve kısıt setleri tanımlanmıştır. Üç üretim yöntemi için üretken tasarım çıktılarının elde edilmesi, üretilen geometrilerin nicel karşılaştırması ve fiziksel prototip üretimi ileri çalışmanın kapsamı olarak konumlandırılmıştır.

Methodological Integration of Industrial Design Engineering in Creative Industries

Öz

This study examines how an Industrial Design Engineering approach can be integrated with AI-based generative design technology, using a motorcycle brake caliper bracket (Brackv2 v4) as a focused application. The existing manually designed bracket, made of Aluminium 6061-T6, was evaluated using static finite element analysis (FEA) in Autodesk Fusion 360. Under a single-load braking scenario of 2,500 N representing an extreme deceleration case, the minimum safety factor (SF) was found to be 15.665, the maximum von Mises stress 17.555 MPa (approximately 6.4% of the yield strength), and the maximum total displacement 0.022 mm. These quantitative results indicate that the existing design carries an excessive safety margin, providing a clear design space for mass reduction through generative design. Generative design workflows and manufacturing-specific constraint sets for CNC machining, casting, and 3D printing are defined. The generation of optimised geometries for the three manufacturing methods, their quantitative comparison and the physical prototyping are framed as the scope of future work.
