In accordance with the increased awareness of resource depletion and environmental pollution, the importance of eco-friendly disposal and recycling of vehicles as a potentially valuable resource is emphasized; in particular, this is important as automobile production and demand continues steadily. In this paper, a systematic dismantling system is proposed to minimize the quantity of ASR by dismantling End-of-Life Vehicles (ELVs) rationally and efficiently. An adaptive layout design system is also provided to aid for the effective implementation of the proposed dismantling system to industrial applications. The proposed dismantling system is based on eco-friendly dismantling and improves not only the recyclability of ELVs, but also the efficiency of the dismantling operations. The adaptive layout design system is a software tool, which allows a layout of a dismantling plant according to the specific requirements of the customers, and estimates the overall figures and capacity of an intended plant by simulation of the dismantling process. This interactive design system can be useful for testing alternative layouts of a dismantling plant customized to meet particular recycling needs.

Recently, a computer-aided interactive design system has been used for turbine design. The blade-to-blade flow program incorporated in the system is required to have short run times, robustness, and no limitations. The Denton time-marching code is attractive as it is fast and can handle mixed subsonic–supersonic flows. The Denton new scheme was published in 1982 and improvements were achieved in run times and entropy conservation. In this paper, code control variables are calibrated from the user’s point of view. Factors affecting computing costs and accuracy are investigated, and the “know-how” necessary to operate the code efficiently is discussed. Comparisons of calculated and experimental results are presented in part II.

The Operator Station Design System is resident in NASA's Johnson Space Center Spacecraft Design Division Design Performance Laboratory. It includes stand-alone mini-computer hardware and Panel Layout Automated Interactive Design and Crew Station Assessment of Reach software. The data base consists of the Shuttle Transportation System Orbiter Crew Compartment (in part), the Orbiter payload bay and remote manipulator (in part), and various anthropometric populations. The system is utilized to provide panel layouts, assess reach and vision, determine interference and fit problems early in the design phase, study design applications as a function of anthropometric and mission requirements, and to accomplish conceptual design to support advanced study efforts.

Procedures are presented for the aerodynamic design and performance analysis of vaneless diffusers, crossover bends and return channels. The design of the crossover bend and return channel is formulated to permit a computerized interactive design system, which has provided dramatic improvements in both quality of designs and engineering productivity. Mean streamline performance models are employed to fully support the interactive design system. These performance models are qualified against experimental data from several centrifugal compressor stage tests. A recent development program which used these procedures is reviewed to demonstrate their benefits.
