Abstract

A design system for mechanical components is being developed using an Object-Oriented Programming language Smalltalk to allow mechanical designers to use the experience of expert designers. The system is organized in such a manner that the expert knowledge stored in it could be easily retrieved by the junior designer. The experience and the knowledge of the expert are placed in the databases. Multiple design models, in this system, can be processed simultaneously, because the expert knowledge is broken down into elements which can be used by different design models. In this way the system proves more flexible and extendable. In this paper, the philosophy of the system and the databases involved in the system will be addressed.
