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.

On the basis of analyzing assembly process of main structural components in CA6140 lathe, 3D models for those components were established with CAD software UGNX6.0. Virtual assembly and motion simulation of the structure parts were performed with virtual technology. A set of virtual assembly system of CA6140 engine lathe was developed with programming software Visual Basic 6.0. It contains six main modules about spindle box, feed box, apron, tailstock, turret, etc. Dynamic simulation and motion simulation of the corresponding components in entity lathe can be realized, respectively. And also, mechanical structure, working principle, assembly relation between different components and motion transmission process of the lathe can be realistically reproduced with the system. This virtual assembly system not only can be used to analyze and transform old products, but also can be used in new products development, and to some extent, can be used to replace the prototype. It is an indispensable tool in the employee training and mechanical engineering activities.

This paper presents a knowledge-based system capable of giving the designer quality support when making decisions from the aspect of modeling the reinforcement of a plate-press within a position of maximum compressive load, and by choosing suitable material for the plate. Based on the selected combination of reinforcement and material, this system acquaints the user with the size and position of the largest comparative stress, and the greatest nodal displacement in the load-direction. This system operates based on the implemented knowledge of experts in the execution of design, material selection, and numerical analysis based on the finite-element method (FEM), which was written with the help of parameters within the knowledge-base of the CATIA V5 CAD-system. Using this system gives the user an opportunity to reach conclusions that are crucial for designing a plate-press or pressure-loaded die-elements, in general. The results reveal that the system can dramatically shorten design time and improve design quality in comparison to manual design process.
