Case Study of Model-Based Definition and Mixed Reality Implementation in Product Lifecycle

Model-Based Enterprise Approach in the Product Lifecycle Management: State-of-the-Art and Future Research Directions

“…With respect to the other analyzed papers [2,8,10,11,21,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37], the importance of model-based solutions is discussed in broad terms, considering the whole product lifecycle and addressing different benefits such as the possibility to improve the integration between the department functions of a company, and different challenges such as the need to use standards for ensuring data consistency.…”

“…Moreover, other Most research papers focused on the adoption of model-based enterprise approach, and model-based definition practices, in relation to the design phase [17][18][19][20] and the manufacturing (a.k.a. build) phase [3,20,21,38]. Accordingly, these studies discussed how model-based solutions can support designers in managing product design data and in completely defining the 3D product model, also resulting in the reduction of the development costs as one of the most important benefits.…”

“…In particular, the focus is on understanding how MBE and MBD support, benefit, and challenge the organizations during the lifecycle phases. Previous research faces these topics mainly for the management of product information during the technical development activities such as the design phase [17][18][19][20] and the manufacturing phase [3,20,21]. These links appear much aligned with the concept of PDM (Product Data Management) that includes systems for the handling of data throughout the whole design, engineering, and development process, also considering the control of workflows [22].…”

“…Adamenko, Pluhnau and Nagarajah [21] and Pippenger [30] state that manufacturing companies should evolve from document-centered data and information management to an MBD approach so that all relevant information for each product lifecycle phase is obtained from a single source, eliminating the need for many models, protocols, and redundant documentation. This prevents important data and information from being lost along the different phases of the product life cycle.…”

Designing a Poultry Barn: A Collaborative Design Approach Using Virtual Reality

“…With the advancement in digital technologies, we are now employing new digital technologies while developing products. Technologies such as Cloud [17], [18] and [19], Deep Learning [20], [21], [22] and [23], Virtual Reality [24], [25], [26], [27] and [28], Augmented Reality [29], [30], [31], [32] and [33] and Mixed reality [34], [35], [36], [37] and [38] are widely used at different stages of product development. Customer data from various sources especially those from the internet [39], [40], [41], [42], [43], [44] and [45] are extensively used in NPD.…”
