“…It is a continuum effort which embodies stages such as preliminary design, intermediate design, detail design, and development. The engineering design process starts with product specification and goes through an interactive process of requirements analysis, conceptual design, detailed design, and design analysis, and it ends with a functional product that fulfills the product specification [9]. Each stage has submodules that are different from each other, and therefore a designer is not expected to be an expert on all stages.…”

An integrated design system (IDS) approach has been developed to integrate various stages of the mechanical design process, including rapid prototyping. The system consist, of design, analysis, calculation, rapid prototyping, and library modules, and it blends artificial intelligence methods, CAD-CAM, and technical computing packages into a single environment. The system has been applied for the design of one-stage gearbox with helical gear. In this case study, all stages of the design process are carried out by using IDS.

“…Revising the dependency is difficult and may require a complete remodelling of the part. Design history may be more a result of convenience and expedience than implied user intent [10]. Design history causes significant inflexibility and use confusion to part modelling because designers have to consider the effect of design history on the final part model by themselves.…”

“…Several related research efforts on historyindependent modelling are listed as follows. Extended Variational Design Technology (VGX) is elaborated by Chung et al [10]. Based on graph analysis and numerical methods, VGX overcomes the limitations and temporal barriers in current history-based modelling system; therefore, designers can directly add 3D constraints and dimensions in a 3D part model.…”

History-independent modelling systems are more flexible than history-based ones. They let designers manipulate the model in a more associative, rather than prescribed, way. In this paper, an approach based on 2D geometric constraint solving and a topological entity naming mechanism (TENM) is presented to solve the geometric constraints between features in 3D space. Firstly, in order to break the unidirectional dependency between features in a history-based modelling system, a data structure named feature constraint graph(FCG) is adopted to represent the geometric constraints between features in 3D space. Then a solving sequence is obtained using degree-of-freedom (DOF) based graph analysis. And finally, during the evaluation of the solving sequence, the dimensions in 3D space are mapped to 2D space, the dimensions in 3D space are satisfied indirectly by solving the corresponding 2D geometric constraint system. An example is given to illustrate the process of our approach.
