About this Item

Hardcover. This text explores the use of computer-aided design (CAD) techniques in the solution of mechanical engineering problems. The numerous applications presented, provide the basis for a broad theory covering the creation and application of CAD systems in practice. This work has led to the generation of a more general approach to design theory. The second edition contains two new chapters covering the research and application of constraint modelling theory that arose directly from the work presented in the first edition. The book's general approach covers all aspects of mechanical design ranging from the design and control of assemblies to the remote operation of coordinate measuring machines via a CAD system. This book should be of interest to graduate engineers, designers, postgraduate students and research engineers. This second edition provides the basic, practical understanding of computer-based design that has led to the creation of a knowledge-driven approach.

About this title

Synopsis

This second edition provides the basic, practical understanding of computer-based design that has led to the creation of a knowledge-driven approach. This approach, through constraint modelling, has been specifically developed to handle the problems of conflict present in the conceptual stages of a real design situation.
