A NEW KNOWLEDGE BASED APPROACH THE REVERSE ENGINEERING OF A PRODUCT

Durupt, A.; Remy, S.; Ducellier, G.; Derigent, W. // 2008
Current (RE) approaches are based on frozen models (parametric surface approaches) and are hardly re-usable. Consequently, the possibility of re-engineering or re-design does not exist. This paper ...

A PLM APPROACH INTEGRATING ULM (USAGE LYFECYCLE MANAGEMENT)

Chapotot, E.; Merlo, C.; Legardeur, J.; Girard, P. // 2008
Nowadays, product ‘usages’ in competitive market are a rich source of knowledge for designers. This interest for ‘usages’ appears since the 90’s but today this phenomenon gaining emphasis. In this ...

A SYSTEM FOR HAPTIC TOLERANCE ANALYSIS REGARDING NON-IDEAL GEOMETRY

Wittmann, S.; Stockinger, A.; Stoll, T.; Paetzold, K. // 2008
Incomplete or wrong definition of tolerances can cause aesthetic and functional problems. In a virtual environment the visual representation is not precise enough to reveal small deviations. ...

ANALYSING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DESIGN PROCESS COMPOSITION AND ROBUSTNESS TO TASK DELAYS

Chalupnik, M. J.; Wynn, D. C.; Eckert ,C. M.; Clarkson, P. J. // 2008
In this paper, Monte-Carlo simulation is used to investigate how the robustness of hypothetical process fragments is influenced by the number of dependencies between tasks and the resource ...

APPLYING THE MULTIPLE DOMAIN MAPPING APPROACH TO VARIANT MANAGEMENT

Deubzer, F.; Braun, T.; Maurer, M.; Lindemann, U. // 2008
As today’s markets show an increasing individualization, dynamics and diversity concerning the customers, different authors point out the relevance and challenge of efficient variant management. ...

APPLYING TRENDS TO DESIGN: A THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

Muir, Wood A. P.; Moultrie, J.; Eckert, C. M. // 2008
When technology and functionality are not enough to differentiate a product from its competitors, the product’s visual appearance becomes a major driver of consumer preference. But how do designers ...

GAP AND FLUSH VISUALIZATION OF VIRTUAL NONIDEAL PROTOTYPES

Stoll, T.; Paetzold, K. // 2008
When a product is manufactured, it always has deviations from the ideal CAD-geometry. Therefore, tolerances are assigned to each part. In this paper a method is presented where a designer can ...

HOW TO DERIVE APPLICATION-SPECIFIC DESIGN METHODOLOGIES

Weber, C. // 2008
Engineering Design Theory and Methodology is often criticised as being too general, too broad, too rigid/inflexible, too time-consuming for industrial practice. Not all of the criticism is justified, ...

Boolean Searches

The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:

  • design community
    Find rows that contain at least one of the two words.
  • +design +community
    Find rows that contain both words.
  • +design community
    Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”.
  • +design -community
    Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”.
  • +design ~community
    Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not.
  • +design +(>community <decisions)
    Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions”
  • design*
    Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”.
  • "some words"
    Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
