Statistical Tolerance Analysis

Abstract Presented is a method for mathematically modeling mechanical component tolerances. The method translates the semantics of ANSI Y14.5M tolerances into an algebraic form. This algebraic form is suitable for either worst-case or statistical tolerance analysis and seeks to satisfy the requirements of both dimensional metrology and design analysis and synthesis. The method is illustrated by application to datum systems, position tolerances, orientation tolerances, and size tolerances.
