By applying pedigree into product conceptual structure design, an evolutionary conceptual design approach is set forth to make full use of creative and innovative intelligence of living systems for design automation. According to the evolutional logic of quantities to quality, the relationship between different conceptual structures is deduced and ordered,then is expressed as product pedigree. The classification description model of product pedigree is established, which can be used as unified functionally isomorphic model during the intelligent conceptual design process. On the other hand, according to the evolutional logic of quality to quantities, pedigree based product evolutionary design strategy are given. Based on the relation network among pedigree units, multiple variation designing schemes can be obtained, which is a strong backbone to the innovative design process. Finally, design examples are used to demonstrate the successful application of the proposed pedigree based evolutionary method in the multi-scheme conceptual design of product.
By applying biological pedigree concept into product conceptual structure design, an conceptual structural design approach is set forth to make full use of creative and innovative intelligence of living systems for design automation. According to the relationship between different product structures with same function, the classification model of product pedigree is established, which can be used as unified functional isomorphic model during the intelligent conceptual design process. On the other hand, according to the evolutional logic from quality change to quantities change, pedigree based product evolutionary design strategy is given. Product pedigrees which are homology dependent are used as basic evolutionary models, based on which, the parameter based, interaction field based and interaction mater based evolutional conceptual design method are proposed, respectively. Based on the relation network of the pedigree units, multiple variant design schemes can be obtained, which is a strong backbone to the innovative design process. Finally, design examples are used to demonstrate the successful application of the proposed pedigree based evolutionary method in the product variant design.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
