This article illustrates features of virtual tools and their increased use in the aerospace industry. According to engineers at Dema Group, a company based in Naples, Italy, there, virtual tools are giving them greater control over the development of composite parts. The company uses a software application called FiberSIM when it designs composite parts. FiberSIM works with computer-aided design (CAD) systems to include non-geometric data in models. Like FiberSIM, ADE software contains more than the geometry of the CAD model. As described by the company in its promotional literature, the software captures all nongeometric information related to parts, assemblies, joints, and fasteners. Software from Vistagy adds manufacturing information to models of composite parts and guides the laying of plies in the Dema Group factory. EON Reality has developed products for use in retail settings for the virtual design of apartment interiors and the customization of Suzuki motorcycles. In a video demonstration, the user’s hands give the commands that configure walls, place machinery, and define traffic flows.

Real-time simultaneous multi-user (RSM) computer-aided design (CAD) is currently a major area of research and industry interest due to its potential to reduce design lead times and improve design quality through enhanced collaboration. Minecraft, a popular multi-player online game in which players use blocks to design structures, is of academic interest as a natural experiment in collaborative 3D design of very complex structures. Virtual teams of up to forty simultaneous designers have created city-scale models with total design times in the thousands of hours. Using observation and a survey of Minecraft users, we offer insights into how virtual design teams might effectively build, communicate, and manage projects in an RSM CAD design environment. The results suggest that RSM CAD will be useful and practical in an engineering setting with several simultaneous contributors. We also discuss the potential effects of RSM CAD on team organization, planning, design concurrency, communication, and mentoring.

An old Chinese proverb says: “What I hear, I forget; what I see, I remember; what I do, I learn”. This wisdom continues to be valid in this 21st century and even more so in this era characterized by the proliferation of new knowledge resulting from accelerated change in all areas of human activity. We are experiencing the Fourth Industrial Revolution, a process as amazing as it is challenging that inevitably leads to reinventing our society - the way we think, relate, and live, but also radically transform production systems, giving rise to a new paradigm that forces us to retrain our workforce at lightning speed, especially technicians and engineers. This implies that we must manage to achieve more effective and faster ways to transfer knowledge. In MECSOFT we find one that we have been using and refining for 20 years. We call it the Pyramid of the Flow of Knowledge (PFC in Spanish); Its results have always been so encouraging that we believe it is very convenient and timely to share it with society, especially at this time when education is urgently reinvented. MECSOFT is a company specialized in Computer Aided Design and Manufacturing and arises from a university research project with the idea of implementing this technology in the Costa Rican productive sector. The objective has been fulfilled thanks to the Pyramid of Knowledge Flow method.

Digital human models represent variations of body shapes for the target end-user population. They can simulate human motions, evaluate workloads, and are utilized to assess safety and usability of products and environments in a virtual space with computer-aided design. The digitalized process can reduce actual test panels, time and cost for human-centered design. Recent trends in research show that the target population of digital human models includes people with special needs. Moreover, digital human models are embedded into interactive tools to support design workshop.

Working Out

This article explores ways and solutions that could make computer-aided design (CAD) systems help engineers make a better choice of their design. CES Selector is a stand-alone library of material property data that helps engineers screen materials based on design objectives and constraints. The tool is useful for identifying potential materials during the conceptual design phase and when searching for a replacement for a material that is not working out. The MultiFab printer developed by MIT’s Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab enables engineers to print multiple materials at once and build objects whose segments have different properties. Research teams are looking for ways to enable engineers to design a part and the materials that comprise it at the same time, within a single software application. The approach will give engineers tools to customize those materials at the microscale and give them just the right properties for the design. By integrating this into CAD design systems, engineers could alter materials at the microscale to achieve specific physical properties needed for the shapes and structures they design at the macroscale.

In modern dentistry, Computer-Aided Design and Manufacturing (CAD/CAM) is a promising technology that allows fabrication of prosthetic restorations through milling procedures. Over years, with the continuous improvement of technology, direct CAD/CAM or “chairside” technology is becoming a widespread approach which offers immediate rehabilitation with long-term rates reported by several studies compared to conventional techniques. All steps are generally carried out in the dental office during the same treatment session. The present paper is about a healthy female patient with a decayed 36 tooth which was restored by ceramic onlay using Planmeca’s PlanCAD system. Through the present clinical case, a detailed protocol of chairside technology would be presented from the digital impression to the milling process. It would detail impression steps. It would also highlight especially the virtual design confection of prosthetic restoration using a biogeneric model included in the software. It also illustrated tools which could be used by the dentist to perform the design. Also, some useful tips would be presented in order to perform the confection. On this subject, various studies showed the viability of such technology. To summarize, referring to previous studies, this promising technology allows especially time-saving and patient’s comfort compared to the indirect one.
