In the framework of design automation, the capabilities of receptor (voxel) geometric models in the tasks of automated layout are shown. Being one of the methods of discrete geometric descriptions of composable objects, they make it possible not only to easily determine cases of their mutual intersection, but also to form intelligent composition algorithms (for example, traces). However, the receptor models are inherently in-machine themselves, which significantly complicates their use. At the same time, modeling composable objects by means of CAD systems (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, KOMPAS, Autodesk Inventor, etc.) presents no difficulty. The article shows the possibility of converting a solid-state model made in any of the existing CAD systems into a receptor one. This allows you to continue using this receptor model as the source for the subsequent operations of computer-aided design layout, taking into account additional factors. In our case, this is the definition of the possibility of delivering bulky objects, among others previously placed, which act as areas of prohibition in our case. The practical value of this study is to assess the possibility of moving super-large cargo along the construction site, assessing the ergonomic design of mechanical, electromechanical, airconditioning and other auxiliary equipment of civil and industrial buildings for ease of installation and subsequent maintenance. An algorithm implemented in the form of a macro CAD-system is described: the formation of a receptor model of a relocatable or assembly equipment based on its solid-state model.
The article considers the task of automated layout of engineering equipment in construction (mechanical, electromechanical, climatic and other auxiliary equipment of civil and industrial buildings). As part of this task, the issue of ensuring the ergonomics of the layout is investigated, by which we mean the possibility of delivery of installation tools to their places of use and the availability of sufficient space for their work. A new approach is proposed, in which the tool trajectory is formed from the initial position to the point of use, as well as the space required for installation operations. The set of instantaneous positions of a movable tool is modeled as a solid object that composes in a scene. The efficiency of using receptor (voxel) geometric models for this purpose is shown. They allow not only to easily determine cases of their mutual intersection, but also to form intelligent layout algorithms. The possibilities of using 6 digit receptor models are shown, which facilitates the analysis of the layout situation, the use of receptor models to determine the shortest distances to obstacles and the output parameters of the trajectory formation program in C #. The effectiveness of the developed model for evaluating ergonomics.
