There is a tremendous need for an effective indoor facility management since the building are tend to be built taller and bigger due to latest technology. Also, information that is continuously used and transferred during the design and construction phase is emerging due to 3D object-oriented CAD. Therefore, a system that will use such information for facility management should be developed. In this study, we have defined a process that will automatically create an spatial network model and also verified the usability by establishing an sample model. As a result, an effective spatial network has been generated and an evacuation path finder was found efficiently.

In the new database applications such as office information systems, CAD/CAM, and AI, it is required to support not only fixed Is-A and Part-Of relationships but also various user-defined dynamic relationships including complicate constraints. However, existing object-oriented systems have many weaknesses in managing those complex relationships. This paper presents the Object-Oriented Relationship data Model (OORM) which is designed to provide facilities for modeling complex relationships into object oriented databases using abstraction concept. In the model, various integrity and consistency constraints related to the relationships can be also represented. And this paper presents a query language, ORSQL(Object Relationship SQL). ORSQL is a nonprocedural query language having similiar syntax to the standard SQL and supporting OORM's operations.

In this paper, an integration framework of Geometric Constraint Solving Engine and AutoCAD is presented, and a dynamic geometric constraint system is introduced. According to inherent orientation features of geometric entities and various Object Snap results of AutoCAD, the' proposed system can automatically construct an under-constrained geometric constraint model during interactive drawing. And then the directed constraint graph in a geometric constraint model is realtime modified in order to produce an optimal constraint solving sequence. Due to the open object-oriented characteristics of AutoCAD, a set of user-defined entities including basic geometric elements and graphics constraint relations are defined through derivation. And the custom-made Object Reactor and Command Reactor are also constructed. Several powerful characteristics are achieved based on these user-defined entities and reactors, including synchronously processing geometric constraint information while saving and opening DWG files, visual constraint relations, and full adaptability to Undo/Redo operations. These characteristics of the proposed system can help the designers more easily manage geometric entities and constraint relations between them.

In this paper, we propose the framework of an integrated design system as a CAD system of a new concept that can incorporate the design information. Current CAD systems are powerful in representing the shape of a product with solid models but cannot provide the design information that is used or created in designing the product. Therefore an integrated design system is proposed to enable the storage and usage of the design information in addition to the shape manipulation. In order to represent the design information, we define element object that represents design element such as a part, a sub-assembly or an assembly by using object-oriented methodology. The element object carries various design information such as design parameters, documents, catalogues, functions, and behaviors as well as shapes. By using the stored information, the system can provide a designer with some functions to assist design activity such as interrogating necessary information, setting design parameters and goals, and constructing constraints among design elements. A mailing system is also constructed among element objects to assist a collaborative design. In addition, an evolutionary design method using genetic algorithms is realized within the proposed framework.

The development of "Ship structural CAD system" has been performed in CSDP(Computerized Ship Design and Production) project to support ship structural design works. The procedures and contents of current design practice concerning the ship structural design were analyzed. To generate design information required at each design stage using the ship structural CAD system, the computerized model was created. To represent and implement the model information, a data structure which represents design concept as well as shape information was proposed using the concept of the product model. To embody the computerized model the object-oriented techniques were established to represent requirements of real world.

In recent years, the manufacturing industry begins to demand the PDM which integarates design and manufacturing information concurrently to reduce the time-to-market of new products. However, current commercialized PDM tools have drawbacks in representing by relational data modeling a variety of data types such as CAD files, images, audio, long text, etc. For this reason, object-oriented approaches are suggested as an alternative. In this paper, using one of object-oriented approaches, Rumbaugh's OMT(Object-Modeling Technique), we propose a data model of drawing information management systems essential for PDM. The scope of the model is limited to the information management for drawings, parts, and product structures. Static, dynamic and functional models are suggested in detail. In the models, the drawing status is classified into on-progress, approved, disposed, and released. Also, parts are classified into products, assemblies, and components.

An object-oriented database was developed as a framesork for integrating into ergonomic interface models data for workplace modelling and ergonomic evaluation functions as well as basic anthropometric data required to construct a man model. In order to develop an ergonomic man model representing operators that interact with his working evnironments, not only anthro- pometric data but also efficient handling of such data and accurate representation of the work- space are needed as a prerequistite to proper ergonomic evaluation. Most existing man models are not, however, capable of fully utilizing these data due to the lack of a generallized formalism of data handling, which results in system performance degradation or a potential difficulty when the system is upgraded. In this research, these three sets of data with distinct characteristics were incorporated into a comon integrated database required to manipulate an ergonomic interface model fully coupled with the man model itself. An object- oriented scheme was sued for the database design Specifically, UniSQL/X, an object-oriented database management system and the X-window system on SPARC workstation were used for implementation. The ergonomic man model generated from the object-oriented database is found to possess great flexibility and performance compared to existing ergonomic interface models or ergonomic CAD systems.

The objective of this research is to develop a cost model for integrated CAD system. A computerized system realizing this model then is used to aid designers. The first area is to propose a conceptual framework of a multilevel cost model. The methodology of constructing the model is discussed. Then suggestion of an object oriented programming technique for implementing the model is presented. Complicate estimation procedure can be systematically handled by this technique. Interval analysis to deal with the uncertainty of information and decision during design process is used. An experimentation algorithm for calculating the cost distribution is proposed to overcome the shortcoming of interval analysis. Major focus of this research is on net shape manufacturing processes including die casting, injection molding, and metal forming.

In this study, an automation tool was developed for rapid evaluation of machine tool spindle designs with automated three-dimensional finite element analysis (3D FEA) using solid elements. The tool performs FEA with the minimum data of point coordinates to define the section of the spindle shaft and bearing positions. Using object-oriented programming techniques, the tool was implemented in the programming environment of a CAD system to make use of its objects. Its modules were constructed with the objects to generate the geometric model and then to convert it into the FE model of 3D solid elements at the workbenches of the CAD system using the point data. Graphic user interfaces were developed to allow users to interact with the tool. This tool is helpful for identification of a near optimal design of the spindle based on, for example, stiffness with multiple design changes and then FEAs.
