Abstract This paper addresses the problem of balancing rotational plastic parts during the early stages of design. The study develops an interactive methodology that uses a solid modeling CAD system and considers injection molding concerns simultaneously with static and dynamic balance. The Transfer Matrix Method evaluates the dynamic characteristics by predicting the approximate critical speed of the part. Design Compatibility Analysis (DCA) checks for injection molding guidelines. Using these evaluation modules interactively, designers can develop a functional and manufacturable part quickly.

Aided Design

One of the key activities in any product design process is to develop a geometric model of the product from the conceptual ideas, which can then be augmented with further engineering information pertaining to the application area. For example, the geometric model of a design may be developed to include material and manufacturing information that can later be used in computer-aided process planning and manufacturing (CAPP/CAM) activities. A geometric model is also a must for any engineering analysis, such as finite elopement analysis (FEA). In mathematic terms, geometric modelling is concerned with defining geometric objects using computational geometry, which is often, represented through computer software or rather a geometric modelling kernel. Geometry may be defined with the help of a wire-frame model, surface model, or solid model. Geometric modelling has now become an integral part of any computer-aided design (CAD) system. In this chapter, various geometric modelling approaches, such as wire-frame, surface, and solid modelling will be discussed. Basic computational geometric methods for defining simple entities such as curves, surfaces, and solids are given. Concepts of parametric, variational, history-based, and history-free CAD systems are explained. These topics are discussed in this opening chapter because (a) CAD was the very first computer-aided technologies developed and (b) its related techniques and methods have been pervasive in the other related subjects like computer-aided manufacturing. This chapter only discusses CAD systems from the application point of view; CAD data formats and data exchange issues are covered in the second chapter.

The Impact

A methodology for measuring the organizational effectiveness of computer-aided design (CAD) was developed and applied. A total of 295 of the 500 most frequent users of CAD in a major aerospace company provided data for the study. User-CAD effectiveness was found to be influenced by 43 major factors and 145 specific system and organizational issues. The 43 factors were classified into the following categories: system functions, system hardware, working environment, system reliability and consistency, user access, user support and training, and system administration. Indexes of User-CAD Effectiveness (UE) and System Availability and Reliability (AR) were combined into an Index of CAD Organizational Effectiveness (OE). Through the application of these methods and indexes, CAD system and organizational deficiencies can be diagnosed, potential high-payoff improvements can be identified, and the impact of developmental efforts can be assessed.

In this paper, a series of interface tests on interaction approach for the generation of geometric shape designs via multi-sensory user interface of a Virtual Reality (VR) based System is presented. The goal of these interface tests is to identify an effective user interface for VR based Computer-Aided Design (CAD) system. The intuitiveness of the VR based interaction approach arises from the use of natural hand movements/gestures, and voice commands that emulate the way in which human beings discuss geometric shapes in reality. The focus of this paper is on determining a set of effective interaction approaches by using the combinations of auditory, tactile, and visual sensory modalities to accomplish typical CAD tasks. In order to evaluate the proposed interaction approach, a prototypical VR-CAD system is implemented. A series of interface tests were performed on the prototypical systems to determine the relative efficiency of a set of potential interaction approach with respect to specific fundamental design tasks. The interface test and its results are presented in this paper.

This work discusses issues concerning the implementation of scanning of unknown engineering objects containing just simple (i.e. no freeform) surfaces with touch probes on three-axis computer numerical control (CNC) measuring machines in order to reconstruct their shape in a computer aided design (CAD) system. Several ideas are put forward e.g. scanning along vertical slicing planes adaptive point sampling distances in-process ‘proactive’ segmentation of points into curve sections and probe radius compensation in two directions as well as limited remedy of edge scanning ambiguities. Most of the suggested algorithms are implemented as parametric numerical control (NC) programs on an OKUMA machining centre.

Reusing existing design models and utilizing an e-Catalog for components are required for faster product development. For the acceleration, an e-Catalog should provide parametric computer aided design (CAD) models, since parametric information is necessary for configuration design. There are difficulties, however, in building a parametric library of all the necessary combinations using a CAD system, because there are too many component combinations for each product. To overcome this problem, we propose a table parametric method to generate parametric CAD models automatically, and describe its details.
