ABSTRACT The CAE software development is one of the hottest research field. Considering of copyrights, developing
time and the costs of the software, the secondary development of Computer Aided Engineering(CAE) software is
necessary for the engineering. This can improve the efficiency of entity modeling and give an valid method for 3D
modeling of such similar questions solutions. This has been a new research direction in CAE field.
Based on finite element analysis software ANSYS, parametric modeling of screw structure is developed by ANSYS inner
developing tools. A system called Corrugated Web Beam Design System(CWBDs). CWBDs introduces the methods of
the menu and the dialog designing with User Interface Design Language(UIDL) and screw structure parametric modeling
in Application Design Language(APDL) of ANSYS. It can extend the function of the ANSYS software and work efficiently.
In the paper, the secondary development on the CAE technology is reviewed. The CWBSDs system supports parametric
modeling and also supports Chinese. Based on CWBSDs the shear strength of corrugated webs beam was analyzed
and compared with that of ordinary beam. It was pointed out that corrugated web beam has superior shear performance.
Effects of the H-beam geometry on its shear properties of optimal design of shear strength based on the numerical result
were also studied.aging mathematical model, compared with the traditional Allen News model has advantages such as
strong pertinence, physical meaning is obvious and more accurate life prediction, and has a very good application value.
