This paper describes an automated computer-aided engineering (CAE) system for three-dimensional structures. An automatic finite element mesh-generation technique, which is based on fuzzy knowledge processing and computational geometry techniques, is incorporated into the system, together with a commercial FE analysis code, and a commercial solid modeler. The system allows a geometry model of interest to be automatically converted to different FE models, depending on the physical phenomena of the structures to be analyzed, i.e., electrostatic analysis, stress analysis, modal analysis, and so on. Also, with the aid of multilayer neural networks, the present system allows us to obtain automatically a design window in which a number of satisfactory design solutions exist in a multi-dimensional design parameter space. The developed CAE system is successfully applied to evaluate an electrostatic micromachines.

This paper describes an automated computer-aided engineering (CAE) system for micromachines whose size range 10 to 10$^3$${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. An automatic finite element mesh generation technique, which is based on the fuzzy knowledge processing and computational geometry techniques, is incorporated into the system, together with one of commercial finite clement (FE) analysis codes, MARC, and one of commercial solid modelers, Designbase. The system allows a geometry model of concern to be a automatically converted to different FE models, depending on physical phenomena to be analyzed, i.e. electrostatic analysis, stress analysis, modal analysis and so on. The FE analysis models are then exported to the FE analysis code, and then analyses are performed. This system is successfully applied to an electrostatic micro actuator.

This paper describes an automated evaluation of electrostatic field for micro motors whose sizes range 10 to 103um. Electric field modeling in micro motors has been generally restricted to in-plane two-dimensional finite element analysis (FEA). In this paper, the actual three-dimensional geometry of the micro motor is considered. An automatic FE mesh generation technique, which is based on the fuzzy knowledge processing and computational geometry techniques, is incorporated in the system, together with one of commercial FE analysis codes and one of commercial solid modelers. The system allows a geometry model of concern to be automatically converted to different FE models, depending on physical phenomena to be analyzed, electrostatic analysis and stress analysis and so on. The FE models are then exported to the FE analysis code, and then analyses are peformed. Then, analytical analysis and FE analysis about the torque generated by electrostatic micro motor are performed. The starting torque is proportional to $V^2$, the calculated starting torque from the two-dimensional analytical solutions are three times larger than those from the three-dimensional FE solutions.

The effects of JPEG2000 compression on automated DSM extraction by using the area-based matching are evaluated in this paper. The influences on DSM heights obtained via PCI Geomatics OrthoEngine module are investigated using a single stereo model of 1:5,000 scale aerial photography at image resolution of 20 ${\mu}$m. The experiment design of elevation errors are computed for a range of compression rates from 2:1 to about 100:1, and the DSM which generated from uncompressed image is used as ‘ground truth’ data for comparison. The experimental results show that the standard deviation ranged from 0.9m to 2.5m with the compression ratio from 2 to 100. It is also observed that there is no significant degradation on DSM accuracy up to the compression ratio of 33.

There has been a lot of research on and release of commercial systems that enable evaluation and visualization of construction methods. These have enabled the selection of good construction plans. However, the process in which engineers build 3D geometry, formulate a schedule and eventually synchronize them is still a time-consuming process. Changing any aspect of the geometry or the schedule and re-linking them is also time-consuming. Therefore, the engineers may compromise on getting the best solution. This paper describes a technique to automate the generation of multiple sets of schedules, quantity takeoffs and 4D visualization from a single 3D model.

본 논문은 Programmable Logic Controller(PLC) 시뮬레이션을 하기 위한 공장 모델(Plant Model)을 자동으로 생성하는 절차에 대해 기술한다. PLC 프로그램은 공정을 제어하는 로직에 관한 정보이며 그 자체로 공장 모델에 대한 어떤 정보도 포함하고 있지 않기 때문에 시뮬레이션을 위해서는 PLC 프로그램에 대응하는 공장 모델이 반드시 필요하다. 지금까지 PLC 시뮬레이션을 위한 공장 모델은 사용자가 직접 구축하는 방식으로 모델링 되었으나 이는 많은 노력과 공정로직의 완전한 이해 및 시뮬레이션 지식이 요구된다. 이런 어려움을 극복하기 위해 논문은 PLC 프로그램의 심볼테이블(Symbol table)로부터 공장모델을 자동으로 생성하는 과정을 제안한다. 이를 위해P LC 심볼이 공장 모델의 생성을 위한 정보를 포함시키는 PLC 심볼의 작명 규칙을 제안한다. 입력된 심볼 리스트를 분석함으로써 공장 모델을 자동으로 추출할 수 있으며 간단한 예제 공정을 대상으로 구현해 본다.

Reverse engineering has been widely used for the shape reconstruction of an object without CAD data and the measurement of clay or wood models fur the development of new products. To generate a surface from measured points by a laser scanner, typical steps include the scanning of a clay or wood model, the generation of compatible input curves, the generation of a surface and manufacturing data like G code or STL file. A laser scanner has a great potential to get geometrical data of a model for its frost measuring speed and higher precision. The data from a laser scanner are composed of many line stripes of points including small spikes and noise. A new approach using automated surface generating algorithm is introduced to deal with problems during reverse engineering process. And the input data and the generated surface are represented in IGES format, thus can be supplied to other CAD/CAM software without any data manipulation.

Recently, the ground-based laser profiler is used for acquisition of 3D spatial information of a rchaeological objects. However, it is very difficult to measure complicated objects, because of a relatively low-resolution. On the other hand, texture mapping can be a solution to complement the low resolution, and to generate 3D model with higher fidelity. But, a huge cost is required for the construction of textured 3D model, because huge labor is demanded, and the work depends on editor's experiences and skills . Moreover, the accuracy of data would be lost during the editing works. In this research, using the laser profiler and a non-calibrated digital camera, a method is proposed for the automatic generation of 3D model by integrating these data. At first, region segmentation is applied to laser range data to extract geometric features of an object in the laser range data. Various information such as normal vectors of planes, distances from a sensor and a sun-direction are used in this processing. Next, an image segmentation is also applied to the digital camera images, which include the same object. Then, geometrical relations are determined by corresponding the features extracted in the laser range data and digital camera’ images. By projecting digital camera image onto the surface data reconstructed from laser range image, the 3D texture model was generated automatically.

The successful implementation of Scan-to-BIM automation depends on the entire process from scanning of buildings, including indoor facilities and furniture, to generating BIM models. However, the conventional Scan-to-BIM process requires a lot of time, manpower, and cost for the manual generation of BIM models including indoor objects. To solve this problem, this study applied a Scan-to-BIM automation process using a deep learning model and parametric algorithm to an existing building, Kangwon Fire Service Academy. To improve the accuracy of the BIM model, after object data was extracted from the scan data, the data was corrected according to actual object-specific conditions. As a result, the accuracy of the BIM model created by the proposed Scan-to-BIM automation process was 91% compared to the actual area of the construction drawings. In addition, it was confirmed that the BIM objects were automatically generated for 10 object classes.

In this paper, a CAD/CAE integrated optimal design system is developed, in which design and analysis process is automated using CAD/CAE softwares for a complex model in which the modeling by parametric feature is not easy to apply. Unigraphics is used for CAD modeling, in which the process is automated by using UG/Knowledge Fusion for modeling itself and UG/Open API function for the other functions respectively. Structural analyses are also carried out automatically by ANSYS using the imported parasolid model. The developed system is applied for the PLS(Plasma Lighting System) consisting of more than 20 components, which is a next generation illumination system that is used to illuminate stadium or outdoor advertizing panel. The analyses include responses by static, wind and impact loads. As a result of analyses, tilt assembly, which is a link between upper and lower body, is found to be the most critical component bearing higher stresses. Experiment is conducted using MTS to validate the analysis result. Optimization is carried out using the software Visual DOC for the tilt assembly to minimize material volume while maintaining allowable stress level. As a result of optimization, the maximum stress is reduced by 57% from the existing design, though the material volume has increased by 21%.
