The principle and main steps of module partition in green product configuration design under uncertainty, and how to determine the correlation between the basic elements of a product, and how to calculate the green degree of module are discussed in this paper. Let the maximum degree of cluster inner a module and the minimum coupling degree among modules and the maximum green degree of modules as the objective function, the mathematic model of uncertainly optimizing for green module partition is set up. And then It is transformed to an ascertainable combinatorial optimization model by de-fuzzy operator, and it is solved by GA (Genetic Algorithm,). The methods of chromosome encoding and the methods of selection and crossover and mutation operator are presented in this paper. A computational example is studied; its result verifies the effectiveness and practical value of the method proposed in this paper.

Module Partition

This paper presents a new method of product module partition based on the fuzzy clustering analysis. This method demonstrates the relevant definitions and calculation methods of the initial partition, min-max partition, submodule relevancy and module aggregation etc., and establishes the incidence matrix to respectively carry out the initial partition for the products and calculation of min-max partition according to various incidence relations between parts and components. Taking the submodule as computing unit in each module set, this paper carries out the fuzzy cluster analysis to obtain the module partition results of the products, and finally demonstrates the rationality and effectiveness of this method by taking the example of the working units of the wheel loaders.

Module Partition

Most of present product module partition methods are based on product function partition and use fuzzy clustering algorithm, but these methods are not only complex in implementation but also difficult to meet the requirements of product development oriented to product lifecycle. By analyzing interactive effects of product components in product lifecycle, a new method for product module partition is put forward. Firstly, LSSVC which has fast calculation speed and high accuracy is used to illustrate the generating process of modules, so several module partition schemes are obtained. Secondly, module partition schemes which are got by LSSVC and other methods of module partition are evaluated to get the most reasonable module partition scheme. Finally, widely-used speed reducer as an example is provided to illustrate the validity and rationality of the proposed approach.

Module Partition

The modular design offers insurement for effective development of serial and diversify products, and hence to satisfy the demand of the market. Through researching the modular design in function and structure, the process schem of modular design characterizing anchor and windlass products was proposed. By studying the module partition method of function and structure, the anchor and windlass was classified as modules of power, modules of driving and changing, modules of control, modules of performing. Based on the program language and three-dimensional software, the computer-aided modular design system for anchor and windlass was established, which satisfies the parametric design for anchor and windlass.
