Design of cricket bats using AI in Inventor | SphereHarness

An AI designs a cricket bat in Autodesk Inventor from plain-English requests: a parametric bat inside the Laws of Cricket, five willow grades, an FEA and modal study, the best shape, and a full A3 drawing. In this video: 0:09 The request in plain words: a parametric bat inside MCC Law 5 0:25 The bat built in Inventor: user parameters, five cross sections, lofts, shoulders, splice, handle 0:41 Four sizes from one parameter set: Short Handle, Long Handle, Harrow, Size 6, measured in Inventor 1:07 Five willows: English willow Grades 1-4 and Kashmir willow, with representative values and their published ranges 1:39 FEA in Inventor Nastran: ball impact at the toe, middle and shoulder, plus a modal analysis (stress colour plots) 2:05 Results table: mass, deflection, bending frequencies and the sweet-spot node (a simplified linear study, for comparison) 2:24 The explanation: why one grade is better, and what shape performs best 3:00 Best dimensions applied to the Short Handle and the FEA re-run 3:31 Best profile for each willow 3:40 A3 drawing of the best bat, every dimension checked against the model 4:08 Results saved for the next videos in the series Run by Claude Agent (Opus) in the SphereHarness desktop agent 1.3.8.
