  • 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...

  • Mechanical design history content : the information requests of design engineers

    Creator:
    Kuffner, Tom A.
    Abstract:
    This thesis reports on research conducted to determine the information which should be included in a mechanical design history. This is part of a larger research effort aimed at developing a computer tool for storing and replaying mechanical design history information. Three question-asking protocols were conducted to determine what information...

  • Model based visualization of vibrations in mechanical systems

    Creator:
    Jitpraphai, Thanat
    Abstract:
    To visualize vibrations in mechanical systems, e.g., machine tools, their movements are measured by means of suitable sensors. The signals from these sensors are processed and displayed as animated pictures on a computer screen. Accelerometers have been chosen as the most suitable sensors for this purpose. Their main advantages include...

  • The design of an aquatic insect imaging device as part of a system to automate insect classification for biomonitoring

    Creator:
    Sarpola, Matt J.
    Abstract:
    Population counts of aquatic insects are a valuable tool for monitoring the water quality of rivers and streams. However, the handling of samples in the lab for species identification is time consuming. An aquatic insect imaging device was designed as part of a system to automate aquatic insect classification and...

  • 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...
