Classical problem in engineering modeling is that product changes and environmental effects on product are hard to propagate in the product model during engineering activities for the lifecycle of products. In order to support change handling, product modeling in current product lifecycle management (PLM) system uses feature and contextual connection definitions to realize self-adaptive characteristics of product model. Actual problems with this model are identified and recent contributions to establish new modeling solutions are introduced in this paper. The main objectives are to enhance self adaptive characteristics of currently applied product models and to extend contextual connections to new features providing higher level knowledge representation capability. Open architecture PLM system representing latest product modeling principles and methods is considered as environment for the research, simulation, and implementation demanded by the proposed extension using new features and contexts.

“…Well-known and proven elements of the PLM technology such as the PLM paradigm [1], feature driven object modeling [2], knowledge representation for situation and event based feature definition [3], and representation of expert knowledge in product model [4] are supposed to available in the extended system. Relevant earlier works of the authors contributed to preparation for this extension by results in recognitions about industrial product modeling [10], communication and representation of design intent [5], integration of product model objects in units according to closeness of their connections [6], model representation of engineering objectives as behaviors [7], modeling content behind product information [8], and control of feature definition by adaptive action [9].…”

This paper introduces new objective related knowledge driven product feature definition method in order to achieve better human influence on feature definition in model based product engineering. The proposed method utilizes earlier relevant results by the authors in knowledge communication intensive product modeling and it is devoted as a contribution to solution for some actual problems in current product lifecycle management (PLM) systems. The authors analyzed definition of objects, knowledge representations, contextual connections, and product behavior descriptions in industrial PLM systems. They recognized that current PLM systems suffer from the lack of higher level representations in product model and decided development of new representations mainly in product function and quality driven feature definition. Main purposes of the reported work were establishing organized situation and event based active knowledge representation and replacing direct definition of product model features by a new indirect communication between human and product feature generation processes. The proposed method is an organic extension to modeling in current PLM systems. Its main characteristics are improved human interactions, situation and event based knowledge, and multi intent based decisions in contextual feature based product definition.Keywords-product lifecycle managemment; product modeling; knowledge based decision in engineering; objective related knowledge driven product feature definition.

“…An additional effort towards ontology and semantic Web can also be found (Matsokis and Kiritsis 2010). According to the above applications and approaches, a lack of support of associability among product models using product relationships still exists and is a barrier for effective and integrated lifecycle-oriented design (Tremblay et al 2006, Sy andMascle 2011).…”

“…Assembly process information and knowledge are required to determine product lifecycle management requirements that have to be taken into account during the product development process using CE philosophy. Thereby, it is important to develop and stress the relational design paradigm by focusing on product relationships along the product lifecycle (Rechtin 1991, Bradley and Maropoulos 1998, Brown 2006, Rachuri et al 2006, Sy and Mascle 2011.…”

The paper describes a novel approach to product relationships management in the context of concurrent engineering and product lifecycle management (PLM). Current industrial practices in product data management and manufacturing process management systems require better efficiency, flexibility, and sensitivity in managing product information at various levels of abstraction throughout its lifecycle. The aim of the proposed work is to manage vital yet complex and inherent product relationship information to enable concurrent product design and assembly sequence planning. Indeed, the definition of the product with its assembly sequence requires the management and the understanding of the numerous product relationships, ensuring consistency between the product and its components. This main objective stresses the relational design paradigm by focusing on product relationships along its lifecycle. This paper gives the detailed description of the background and models which highlight the need for a more efficient PLM approach. The proposed theoretical approach is then described in detail. A separate paper will focus on the implementation of the proposed approach in a PLM-based application, and an in-depth case study to evaluate the implementation of the novel approach will also be given.
