Nowadays complex products such as automobiles and ships are usually developed at geographically dispersed locations, which bring the difficulties for component model verification and assembly process evaluation. Collaborative virtual assembly (CVA) environment with VR technology is a good solution. However, the existing collaborative environments have many disadvantages in data management, reliability,...
DFX technologies require evaluating the multiple aspects of product performance as early as possible, while virtual assembly with digital model can be used to realize the DFX idea. By using human-friendly oriented VR technology, the digital model evaluation for assembleability can be performed at the early stage of product development, so as to replace the evaluation of real physical model as much...
"Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality in Industry" collects the proceedings of the 2nd Sino-German Workshop on the same topic held in Shanghai on April 16-17, 2009. The papers focus on the latest Virtual Reality (VR) / Augmented Reality (AR) technology and its application in industrial processes and presents readers with innovative methods, typical case studies and the latest information...
Multi-functional machine (MFM) is often used in the current manufacturing system. In traditional way, the MFM was treated as single-functional machine (SFM), so the functions of the MFM might be wasted. When the multiple functions of an MFM are utilized to process jobs at several stages in a flow shop, the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem under the environment of MFM (HFSP-MEM) will be induced...
Under the condition of increasingly furious market competition, requirements of customs become diverse and characteristic, mass customization comes forth to meet the customers’ need and turn into a kind of inevitable trend. In order to manage large numbers of product species, the product configuration have emerged and have become the focus of research. This paper puts forward the concept of knowledge...
Faced with todays competitive market, the development of innovative product needs to be accelerated. But this is limited by heterogeneous systems and a distributed environment. A way of utilising network technology to this end must be found. In this paper, we use a new approach, called asynchronous and synchronous coupling, which is a network-based product development approach. This is then applied...
