Generalized Linear Product Homotopy Algorithms and the Computation of Reachable Surfaces
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)In this paper, we apply a homotopy algorithm to the problem of finding points in a moving body that lie on specific algebraic surfaces for a given set of spatial configurations of the body. ... -
Immersive Virtual Reality In Cable and Pipe Routing: Design Metaphors and Cognitive Ergonomics
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)In recent years there have been moves in industrial engineering towards greater automation through intelligent systems and this has resulted in replacing human expertise. In many cases the ... -
A User Interface for Free-Form Shape Design at the Responsive Workbench
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)This paper presents a virtual environment based user interface for the conceptual design of free form surface models from scratch. The user performs sketching and elaboration directly within a ... -
A Port Ontology for Conceptual Design of Systems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)During conceptual design of systems, the emphasis is on generating the system architecture: the configuration of sub-systems and the interactions between them. Ports, as locations of intended ... -
A Web-Based Knowledge Elicitation System (GISEL) for Planning and Assessing Group Screening Experiments for Product Development
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)When planning experiments to examine how product performance depends on the design, manufacture and environment of use, there are invariably too few resources to enable a complete investigation ... -
Port-Compatibility and Connectability Based Assembly Design
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)In Computer-Aided Design, when creating the solid model of a part, the designer knows how the part will interface with other parts, however this information is not stored with the part model. ... -
Development of XML Databinding Integration for Web-Enabled Aircraft Engine Simulation
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)This paper discusses the detailed design and implementation of an XML databinding framework for Web-based aircraft engine simulation. The framework provides an interoperable, high-level object ... -
Comparison of Non-Nominal Geometry Models Represented in Physical Versus Virtual Environments
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)By combining Computer Aided Tolerance (CAT) simulation tools with Virtual Reality (VR) tools, virtual environments for non-nominal geometry verification can be utilized. This paper presents the ... -
AMPS-An Automated Modular Process Planning System
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)AMPS is a fully automated process planning system for milling of 2.5D parts. It consists of different modules, each of which performs specific tasks like identification of removal volumes, setup ... -
Recognition of Multi Axis Milling Features: Part I-Topological and Geometric Characteristics
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)Most of the work in machining feature recognition has been limited to 2-1/2 and 3 axis milling features. The major impediment to recognition of complex features has been the difficulty in ... -
Evaluation of Standard ERP Software Implementation Approaches in Terms of their Capability for Business Process Optimization
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004)In spite of the great variety of potential advantages, it is also necessary to illuminate the real effects of Standard ERP Software in practice. Recent studies have revealed that 81% of German ... -
