ICEMENDR : intelligent capture environment for mechanical engineering drawing
… environment for recognizing simple mechanical engineering sketches. This involves the analysis of complex mechanical engineering parts and their components and consists of creating a hierarchical recognition system capable of parsing these parts with simpler geometric primitives. The system …

Engineering Drawing Segmentation and Understanding For Building Construction Digital Twins
… Models (BIMs), even though they have detailed engineering drawings that contain essential mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) components and structural components. Converting these drawings into BIM models remains a largely manual process, which is time-consuming, difficult to scale, and …

The early identification of academic support needs of first year university engineering drawing students in a multicultural society
… were administered to more than 900 freshmen engineering students at the University of Cape Town in 1983, 1984 and 1985, and at the Cape Technikon in 1985. They were found to be consistently powerful predictors of performance in the midyear and final first year engineering drawing …

Deep learning for digitising complex engineering drawings.
… required to analyse it. Amongst these documents, engineering drawings are considered one of the most challenging to digitise. The task involves automatically recognising all drawing components which are the symbols, text and connections. Although there has been significant improvement in computer …

Attitudes and intentions towards purchasing food produced using genetic engineering: modelling and understanding the motivations for purchasing behaviour : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the Degree of Master of Applied Science at Lincoln University
… the purchase of food produced using genetic engineering. Drawing upon contemporary attitude-behaviour research, a model is developed of the personal motivations towards the purchase of these foods. The model is a modification of the Theory of Planned Behaviour (Ajzen, 1991) with self-identity …
