About this title

Synopsis

This book gives a comprehensive view of the most recent major international research in the field of tolerancing, and is an excellent resource for anyone interested in Computer Aided Tolerating.

It is organized into 4 parts. Part 1 focuses on the more general problems of tolerance analysis and synthesis, for tolerancing in mechanical design and manufacturing processes. Part 2 specifically highlights the simulation of assembly with defects, and the influence of tolerances on the quality of the assembly. Part 3 deals with measurement aspects, and quality control throughout the life cycle. Different measurement technologies and methods for estimating uncertainty are considered. In Part 4, different aspects of tolerancing and their interactions are explored, from the definition of functional requirement to measurement processes in a PLM approach.

About the Author

Max Giordano is emeritus professor at the University of Savoy France. His research interests include geometry modeling, computer-aided design and computer-aided tolerancing, and he developed the concept of "domain" for the 3-D tolerance analyses and synthesis.

François Villeneuve is Professor at the University of Grenoble (France) and vice-director of the G-SCOP research laboratory. His research interests include Computer Aided Process Planning (CAPP), Knowledge Management, Product Design and Tolerancing. In Tolerancing, he is developing a 3D geometrical model for product defects through the product life cycle.

Luc Mathieu is Professor at the University of Paris-Sud 11, in the Department of Production Engineering (France). He is Director of the Automated Production Research Laboratory (LURPA) in the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan (France). He is also a fellow member of CIRP (International Academy of Production Engineering). His research interests include geometry, computer-aided tolerancing, coordinates metrology and digital production engineering.
