Design reuse in a CAD environment
… design families to be transformed into 'dynamic' CAD-based models for the Conceptual, Embodiment and Detailed stages of the design process. Two novel concepts are proposed here, i) the use of a Function Means Tree to store Conceptual and Embodiment design and ii) a Variant Method to represent …

BIO-INSPIRED DESIGN METHODOLOGY BASED ON A SEMANTIC MAP, USEABLE IN CAD ENVIRONMENT
… tools and methods to lead to new opportunities. CAD (Computer Aided Design) plays a key role in PLM and NPD (New Product Development). CAD initiates with sketches developed by using geometry. The aim of this research is to create a new methodology for concept generation, which can be used in CAD …

Novel affordances of computation to the design processes of kinetic structures
… here, through the inclusive integration of CAD within the process). The "necessity" to draw is explored as a re-presentational process to the visual system predicated upon the existence of a structured internal "library" of diagram-like representations. I argue that the ways we utilize such …

Attribution Standardization for Integrated Concurrent Engineering
… iterations, Parametric Computer-Aided Design CAD) systems were introduced. To manage the numerous product design iterations produced by parametric CAD systems, Product Data Management (PDM) systems were developed to capture, document, and manage each product revision. PDM has proved effective …

An integrated system to design machine layouts for modular special purpose machines
… layouts, an artificial intelligence tool, and a CAD design environment. SolidWorks was used as the 3D CAD environment. VisiRule was used as the expert system tool to make decisions about the selection of SPM elements. An assembly modelling approach was developed with an SPM database using a …

Reconstructing Palladio's villas : an analysis of Palladio's villa design and construction process
… the Brenta River in the form of physical models, cad drawings and computer renderings from fragmented information offered in the Four Books. The end product will serve as a method for reconstruction in the form of a three-dimensional analysis of Palladio's design and construction rules and a …

Digitally mediated design : using computer programming to develop a personal design process
… model of using the computer programming environment LOGO to teach mathematics. It uses computer programming in a CAD environment, and specifically the development of a generative system, to teach the design process. The efficacy of such an approach to architectural design education has …

Algorithmic generation of vascular network models for additive manufacturing
… circulation. The networks are generated using a CAD environment and thus can be used in additive manufacturing processes. An investigation was carried out on the effect of three input parameters (namely volumetric flow rate, pressure difference across the tree, and number of terminal points) in …

originalMachines : developing tools and methods for object-oriented mechatronics
… servos are made available as objects within a CAD environment which can then be implemented into specific projects. The approach addresses the missing link between accessible rapid-manufacturing services and currently available design tools thereby creating new opportunities for self-expression …

Development of CAD Platform Independent Software for Automatic Grading of Technical Drawings
… In addition, the software is independent of the CAD platform used to create the drawings. The instructor can also upload a batch of images that can be processed by the software at once. The grading rubric that was used for manual grading can be implemented in the software. The software uses Image …

Data-Driven Research On Engineering Design Thinking And Behaviors In Computer-Aided Systems Design: Analysis, Modeling, And Prediction
… approaches, we develop a computer-aided design (CAD)-based research platform in the application context of renewable engineering systems design. Data are collected through three design case studies, i.e., a solarized home design problem, a solarized parking lot design problem, and a design …
