  • An empirical study on the process of mechanical design

    Creator:
    Stauffer, Larry A.
    Abstract:
    An information processing model of the problem-solving performance of mechanical designers is presented for four design tasks: conceptual assembly design, layout component design, detail component design, and catalog selection. These tasks are organized into six kinds of segments called episodes, which describe the goal structure of the designer while performing...

  • The design capture system : capturing back-of-the-envelope sketches

    Creator:
    Hwang, Teng-shang
    Abstract:
    A system which allows the computer to capture sketches made by a mechanical designer is described. The system not only recognizes basic features as they are sketched, but it also reasons the spatial relationships between features and builds a high level abstract representation (feature model) of the artifact. The temporal...

  • A computer-based design history tool

    Creator:
    Chen, Ai-hua
    Abstract:
    In current practice, design documentation often fails to support the activities of design understanding, communication, and redesign. A Design History Tool has been developed to improve current design documentation. This tool is a computerized design history that represents and plays back important information generated during the process of designing a...
