The inherent dynamic relationships among design tasks performed concurrently at different organizations characterize the complexities of a design chain where designers with diverse expertise need to collaborate across organizational boundaries. To ensure timely completion of inter-related design tasks, metrics to facilitate the early evaluation of design concepts are crucial. The ability to evaluate and select suitable design concepts at an early stage will ensure better solutions and greater savings in time and effort further downstream. This paper proposes a new approach based on the rough set theory to design concept analysis. The approach aims at early detection of design inadequacy. A so-called information system is constructed using the information gleaned from design concepts and design capabilities, and analyzed using the rough set theory to derive a set of design rules for design concept analysis. The approach embodies a technique for handling attributes with unavailable information, which is a frequent occurrence in design. This paper presents details of the proposed approach, the novel technique, and a case study. 相似文献

A new 3D-CAD system for set-based parametric design 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

So far, there has been an extraordinary development of computer-aided tools intended to generate, present or communicate 3D
models. But there has not been a comparable progress in the development of 3D-CAD systems intended to assist designers in
representing and manipulating both geometric and non-geometric design information based on solid models, thus facilitating
concurrent engineering (CE). Design objects continue to be produced by traditional means using the computer as little more
than a drafting tool. In addition, the state-of-the-art 3D-CAD systems are incapable of encoding engineering uncertainties
since only precise single-valued assignments are allowed for their modeling operations. Recently, set-based CE (SBCE) has
been attracting public attention as an emerging CE paradigm. Such a set-based design (SBD) approach presents many possibilities
in handling the uncertainties that are intrinsic at the early phases of design. This paper addresses a novel concept – set-based
parametric design (SBPD) – which combines the SBD practice with the parametric modeling technique widely used in most 3D-CAD
systems. A preference set-based design (PSD) model and a design information solid (DIS) model are proposed to incorporate
the SBPD concept into the current 3D-CAD systems. Finally, a prototype system is implemented to illustrate the potential
to achieve a SBPD practice. 相似文献

Due to the trends of energy shortage and energy price rise, energy efficiency, which was always ignored over the past decades, becomes a worldwide hot issue and also a significant challenge for most factories. Therefore, it is necessary to incorporate energy-relevant criterion as a key criterion with traditional criteria in the layout planning phase. As a multiattribute decision-making (MADM) problem, the evaluation and selection of facility layout alternatives are often difficult and time consuming since the criteria generally have different units and conflicting features. In this article, a MADM approach which incorporates the advantages of rough set theory, analytic hierarchy process (AHP), and technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) is proposed to solve the facility layout design problem with considering both traditional layout criteria and energy relevant criteria. At first, rough set theory is integrated with AHP to determine the weights for each criterion of alternatives. Then, TOPSIS is applied to get the final alternative ranking. Besides, sensitivity analysis for both decision weights and production rates is performed, and a comparison among different decision-making approaches for the same problem is also studied to demonstrate the rationality of the final decision. Finally, a practical expanding case is studied to validate the proposed approach. 相似文献

Conceptual design is the first step in the overall process of product design. Its intrinsic uncertainty, imprecision, and
lack of information lead to the fact that current conceptual design activities in engineering have not been computerized and
very few CAD systems are available to support conceptual design. In most of the current intelligent design systems, approach
of principle synthesis, such as morphology matrix, bond graphic, or design catalogues, is usually adopted to deal with the
concept generation, in which optional concepts are generally combined and enumerated through function analysis. However, as
a large number of concepts are generated, it is difficult to evaluate and optimize these design candidates using regular algorithm.
It is necessary to develop a new approach or a tool to solve the concept generation. Generally speaking, concept generation
is a problem of concept synthesis. In substance, this process of developing design candidate is a combinatorial optimization
process, viz., the process of concept generation can be regarded as a solution for a state-place composed of multi-concepts.
In this paper, genetic algorithm is utilized as a feasible tool to solve the problem of combinatorial optimizalion in concept
generation, in which the encoding method of morphology matrix based on function analysis is applied, and a sequence of optimal
concepts are generated through the search and iterative process which is controlled by genetic operators, including selection,
crossover, mutation, and reproduction in GA. Several crucial problems on GA are discussed in this paper, such as the calculation
of fitness value and the criteria for heredity termination, which have a heavy effect on selection of better concepts. The
feasibility and intellectualization of the proposed approach are demonstrated with an engineering case. In this work concept
generation is implemented using GA, which can facilitate not only generating several better concepts, but also selecting the
best concept. Thus optimal concepts can be conveniently developed and design efficiency can be greatly improved. 相似文献

In this paper, we propose a grey-based rough set approach to deal with the supplier selection in supply chain management. The proposed approach takes advantage of mathematical analysis power of grey system theory while at the same time utilizing data mining and knowledge discovery power of rough set theory. It is suitable to the decision-making under more uncertain environments. We also provide a viewpoint on the attribute values in rough set decision table under the condition that all alternatives are described by linguistic variables that can be expressed in grey number. The most suitable supplier can be determined by grey relational analysis based on grey number. A case of supplier selection was used to validate the proposed approach. 相似文献

Products affect the environment at many points in their life cycles. Once a product moves from the drawing board into the
production line, its environmental attributes are largely fixed. Many researchers have focused on developing intelligent systems
to provide a variety of design and manufacturing information to help designers make environmentally conscious decisions. However,
in the early design stage, not all the information available is precise. A large amount of information, especially those that
are based on designer experience, is fuzzy in nature. This paper presents an innovative method, namely green fuzzy design
analysis (GFDA), which involves simple and efficient procedures to evaluate product design alternatives based on environmental
consideration using fuzzy logic. The hierarchical structure of environmentally conscious design indices was constructed using
the analytical hierarchy process (AHP), which include five aspects: (1) energy, (2) recycling, (3) toxicity, (4) cost, and
(5) material. After weighting factors for the environmental attributes are determined, the most desirable design alternative
can be selected based on the fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making (FMADM) technique. The benefit of using such a technique
is to effectively solve the design problem by capturing human expertise. 相似文献

In response to the changing market trend of having large varieties within a small production, green design and modular design have assumed significant roles in the product development process. This research applied quality function deployment (QFD) to achieve the goal of analyzing customers' needs. It also applied design structure matrix (DSM) based on the modular concept to group different design parts together to obtain optimized module efficiency. A balance between product development and ecological (ECO) friendliness can be achieved in advance if green QFD (GQFD) and DSM were introduced during the early design and manufacturing stages. Furthermore, using the result of GQFD, we proposed the analysis of DSM to find the result of coupled tasks. A pairwise comparative algorithm and loop analysis algorithm in DSM were utilized to decrease the number of module groups and find the most suitable clustering approach for further green design consideration. In this research, an electronic translator was used as a case study for the integration of green design with modularity. The main goal of this paper is to sort the importance weight values for green consideration by QFD during product development. These results can then be applied to finish modular grouping by DSM for subsequent green assembly and disassembly considerations of the products. 相似文献

The demand for high-quality and low-cost products with short development time in the dynamic global market has forced researchers and industries to focus on various effective product development strategies. The authors are carrying out research studies to explore the applicability of fuzzy logic and knowledge-based systems technologies to today’s competitive product design and development, with an emphasis on the design of high quality products at the conceptual design stage. A framework of a fuzzy FMEA (failure modes and rffects analysis) based evaluation approach for new product concepts is proposed in this paper. Based on the proposed approach and methodologies, a prototype system named EPDS-1, which can assist inexperienced users to perform FMEA analysis for quality and reliability improvement, alternative design evaluation, materials selection, and cost assessment, thus helping to enhance robustness of new products at the conceptual design stage. This paper presents the underlying concepts of the development and shows the practical application with the prototype system with a case study. 相似文献

This paper proposes an integrated intelligent system that builds a fault diagnosis inference model based on the advantage
of rough set theory and genetic algorithms (GAs). Rough set theory is a novel data mining approach that deals with vagueness
and can be used to find hidden patterns in data sets. Based on this approach, minimal condition variable subsets and induction
rules are established and illustrated using an application for motherboard electromagnetic interference (EMI) test fault diagnosis.
This integrated system successfully integrated the rough set theory for handling uncertainty with a robust search engine,
GA. The result shows that the proposed method can reduce the number of conditional attributes used in motherboard EMI fault
diagnosis and maintain acceptable classification accuracy. The average diagnostic accuracy of 80% shows that this hybrid model
is a promising approach to EMI diagnostic support systems . 相似文献

Approximate Estimation of the Product Life Cycle Cost Using Artificial Neural Networks in Conceptual Design 总被引:7,自引:2,他引:5

In order to improve the design of products and reduce design changes, cost, and time to market, life cycle engineering has
emerged as an effective approach to address these issues in today’s competitive global market. As over 70% of the total life
cycle cost of a product is committed at the early design stage, designers can substantially reduce the life cycle cost of
products by giving due consideration to the life cycle implications of their design decisions. During the early design stages
there may be competing requirements. In addition, detailed information is scarce and decisions must be made quickly. Thus,
both the overhead in developing parametric life cycle cost (LCC) models for a wide range of concepts or requirements, and
the lack of detailed information make the application of traditional LCC models impractical. A different approach is required
because a traditional LCC method should be incorporated in the very early design stages. This paper explores an approximate
method for providing the preliminary life cycle cost. Learning algorithms trained to use the known characteristics of existing
products can perhaps allow the life cycle cost of new products to be approximated quickly during the conceptual design phase
without the overhead of defining new LCC models. Artificial neural networks are trained to generalise product attributes and
life cycle cost data from pre-existing LCC studies. Then, the product designers query the trained artificial model with new
high-level product attribute data to obtain an LCC for a new product concept quickly. Foundations for the learning LCC approach
are established, and then an application is provided. This paper has been developed to provide designers with LCC information
to guide them in conceptual design. 相似文献

Although extensive research has been carried out in the area of tolerancing techniques for product design, concurrent engineering is still very seldom used in this context. This paper introduces a unique tolerancing method which applies the concept of concurrent engineering. The proposed method essentially allocates the required functional assembly tolerances to the component tolerances by formulating the tolerancing problem into a mathematical model and solving the model using a linear programming approach. The component tolerances are first represented in terms of the process tolerances, assigned by process planners at an early stage of the product design. The objective function of the mathematical model, which is to maximise the residual tolerances of the processes, is then established and the constraints formulated based on the assembly requirements and process constraints. The model is subsequently solved using a linear programming approach. Finally, the proposed method is tested on a practical example. 相似文献
