This study presents a feature-driven method that preservescomponent sequences accounting for engineering requirements. The chain-of-bars design variables setting scheme is developedto realize the sequential component’s layout, which sets the current bar’s end point as the next bar’s start point. The total lengthof the printing path is constrained to reduce the consumption of material accurately. Also, the angle between adjacent bars isconstrained to avoid sharp angles at the turning point of the 3D printing path. Next, the sensitivity analysis considering theinter-dependence of substructures is performed. Several numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity and merits ofthe proposed method in designing structures preserving component sequences.展开更多

This article presents an integrated study about the generation and optimizing algorithm of the disassembly sequence. Mechanical products are divided into two categories of components and connectors. The article uses component-joint graph to represent assembly constraints, including the incidence constraints are represented by incidence matrix and the interference constraints are represented by interference constraints. The inspiring factor and pheromone matrix are calculated according to assembly constraints. Then the ant generates its own disassembly sequences one by one and updates the inspiring factor and pheromone matrix. After all iterations, the best disassembly sequence planning of components and connectors are given. Finally, an application instance of the disassembly sequence of the jack is presented to illustrate the validity of this method.展开更多

The generic program was specialized into domain-specific realization for the known knowledge and environments. The syntax and semantic(adj.) were analyzed based on byte code instruction sequences, and partial evaluation rules depicted how to perform the specialization. The partial evaluation for object-oriented programs was implemented. The experimental results show that partial evaluation is effective to speed up the running efficiency. The more generality and scalability can be obtained by the integration of partial evaluation with the favorable design mechanisms and compiler optimization technology.展开更多

To accomplish the production, material requirements must be predetermined and incorporated as restraints into the scheduling problem, which has the objective of minimizing production completion time (makespan). A solution procedure is developed based on the following strategies: 1) Each machine is responsible for the same PCBs of each piece, 2) Components of the same types may use one or more feeder locations, 3) Component types are clustered based on their suitable placement speeds, 4) A heuristic using a bottom-up approach is applied to determine the component placement sequence and the feeder location assignment for all machines. Velocity estimate functions of the turret, XY table, and feeder carriage were derived based on empirical data. An experiment using Fuji CP732E machines was conducted on two real life instances. Experimental results indicate that our method performs 32.96% and 10.60% better than the Fuji-CP software for the two instances, in terms of the makespan per piece of board.展开更多
