| Abstract | The present study concerns with the research, development and implementation of an
Object Oriented application software for representation and visualization of features for a set
of rotational parts. The methods and techniques applied in this study are based on the Object
Oriented approach and feature manipulation using integration of data and knowledge. Objectoriented programming technique supports the user definition of features that may be positioned
and manipulated in a logical fashion.
To appropriately represent .the family of design features, a representation scheme called
as FEATURE PRIMITIVE STRUCTURE (FPS) has been proposed. The scheme is basically
responsible to capture and assimilate the decomposition, taxonomies, consistency and validation
relationship among objects of design domain. Feature knowledge is available in the form of
methods in the various classes developed for rotational parts under consideration. A prototype
system has been developed to realize the above idea. The visualization module developed is
integrated to the design module and is also able to transfer data to AutoCAD in DXF format
for final documentation of the part. |
