Summary: | Design of plastic bottles had preferred to use computer aided design (CAD) to propose desirable shapes. The strength also was regarded to pass the top load test unless an appearance of plastic bottles. Finite element method (FEM) was employed to analyze and predict the bottle shape which enough to support load under a collapsible regulation. Unfortunately, the redesign of bottle shape always performed when the desirable bottle shape had not passed the test. There was time consumption and loss of opportunity to compete producing of bottles. This research proposed a method to receive a desirable shape of plastic bottles together with top load strength. The master of bottle shape had been created which capable to change any dimensions before generated CAD and performed top load analysis with FEM. The artificial neural network (ANN) was employed to obtain the desirable bottle shape with top load resistance by varying dimension of the master bottle. The plastic bottle design would be performed rapidly with the ANN of master bottle shape. Consequently, the suitable dimension of plastic bottles which achieved by ANN could be used to design a desirable shape of bottles by using CAD and FEM without trial and error. |
