“…The use of descriptive languages has its roots in the methodology used to build KBE systems, such as MOKA (methodology for knowledge-based engineering applications) [12] or KNOMAD [13], which describe metamodels used in the development of complex technical systems. Metamodels allow us to define the structure of the knowledge base that is used in KBE systems based on these methodologies.…”

“…In the case of creating a generative model, the role of the designer is completely different [14]. In this case, the designer, together with the knowledge engineer, tries to identify the appropriate geometric features of the object and develops a set of parameters and rules that describe the given features [13,14]. The result of these activities is a CAD model that allows the automatic generation of specific design features based on the assumed input data.…”

This article presents the effects of work performed during a software project for generative models and spreadsheets, allowing the quick creation of conceptual models for aircraft. The presented software at the current stage is suitable for the creation of glider representation; however, a modular structure allows for developing and extrapolating the presented application to match the requirements of planes and UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) design. The subject of this work is a response to the current trends and needs prevailing in the field of CAD (computer-aided design) and aviation. In the initial sections of this paper, theoretical issues related to the work being carried out are introduced, and the methodology for creating software for the construction and verification of the aircraft structure along with the need for interchange between databases of generative models is presented. In the following sections, the concepts and selected solutions for the user interface that supports the knowledge base are presented along with a set of procedures for its operation. Furthermore, a method for database integration with the methods used to determine design features for the developed generative models and the Siemens NX system is introduced. Problems encountered during software development, as well as solution examples for model applications, are specified. The results obtained and the models generated on their basis were tested with a strength analysis using Autodesk Inventor software and analysed in terms of meeting the initial assumptions. In the end, conclusions and observations were formulated resulting from the effects of the work performed during the project.

“…A critical issue of knowledge-based product modelling is capturing, classifying, structuring, and managing the captured knowledge. Since there is no clear formalised link between a generic product model and an interoperable format in the KBE environment [5][6][7], it is essential to provide well-defined knowledge classes and a formalised knowledge capture method for individuals, enterprises and industries to capture and share knowledge instead of using informal oral communication or notes and spreadsheets in different formats. In this paper, geometric data contained in a CAD file is regarded as "geometry information", and non-geometric information, such as experience, expertise and design rules, is called "knowledge".…”

Traditional CAD tools and systems cannot explain real-world concepts by themselves and require the users to have knowledge and design experience of the product in order to understand design rules and judge the correctness of the changes. Knowledge-based engineering (KBE) has been introduced to address these issues; however, existing KBE methodologies offer limited instantiation steps and enabling tools for implementation. In this paper, a knowledge-based product modelling prototype system is proposed to overcome the above problems. This system is developed based on the Virtual Product Modelling framework using a game engine platform to aid in capturing, reusing, and exchanging the existing product information and provide knowledge reasoning in the product modelling process. The findings of this research have shown the potential of using the developed prototype system to help save time and prevent engineers from making mistakes in the product design process.
