【 摘 要 】

This paper presents a 3D solid modelling to generate a pentagonal toroid with circular cross-section used in manufacturing of LPG storage tanks from the automotive industry. Stress and linear deformation analysis are applied to optimize the geometrical product shape. As a result, in numerical simulation a feasible time-cost integrated project schedule was developed to formulate a construction sequence of product components based on the physical relationships between CAD objects.
