New methodology to explore the role of visualisation in aircraft design tasks

Abstract: A toolbox for the assessment of engineering performance in a realistic aircraft design task is presented. Participants solve a multidisciplinary optimisation (MDO) task by means of a graphical user interface (GUI). The quantity and quality of visualisation may be systematically varied across experimental conditions. The GUI also allows tracking behavioural responses like cursor trajectories and clicks. Behavioural data together with evaluation of the generated aircraft design can help uncover details about the… Show more

“…To harness the full benefits of 3D data, the manufacturing industries require simple solutions for the efficient use of IT technology, including consistency in processes. There are further requirements for lightweight 3D formats for the visualization and downstream processes, complementary formats in order to exchange meta data, structure data and kinematics data as well as open and standardized formats to reduce total cost of ownership and to minimize dependency of single vendors [26,28,29]. At this time, commercial formats JT and 3D PDF fulfil most of criteria and can be included in many industrial workflows [30,31].…”

“…The design process needs to take into consideration that some aircraft parts will have reduced strength. 6 This has led to emergent techniques in wing structures by combining carbon fiber cloth and resin epoxy matrix under elevated temperature to produce a strong material. The end product is tough and can withstand fatigue at high altitude and contribute strength-to-weight ratio characteristics.…”

“…Tighter collaboration among business partners and streamlined integration of engineering processes are becoming essential elements for success in the competitive global environment (Kao et al, 2005). As a comprehensive and systematic approach, concurrent engineering (CE) is widely used in the engineering field (Ito, 2014), for example, aerospace vehicles and aircraft design (Kolonay, 2014;Dineva et al, 2014). Design is a kind of highly complex activities with a large number of coupling relationships existing among essential design factors (EDF) and design resources.…”
