The Experiment results indicate that the pressure sensitivity of the sensor is -3.21 pm/kPa in a range from 0 to 500 kPa, and the linear correlative coefficient reaches 99.98%. This kind of pressure sensor could be widely used for pressure's quasi-distributed measurement and long-term on-line monitoring at a remote distance.","PeriodicalId":135246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Innovative Design and Manufacturing (ICIDM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133859849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to acquire the expansibility, flexibility and security, both B/S (Browser /Server) mode and C/S (Client/Server) mode of the system were established in our system.

The task of designing mechatronic systems is understood to be very tedious and complex because of the high number of components, the multi-physics aspects, the couplings between the different domains involved and the interacting design criteria. Due to this inherent complexity, a systematic and multi-objective approach is needed to replace the traditional methods used to support the design activity and design performance evaluation. In this paper we present a Choquet integral-based neural network alongside with a new multi-criteria profile for mechatronic system performance evaluation in conceptual design stage. The newly introduced Mechatronic Multi-criteria Profile (MMP) includes various quantitative evaluation criteria such as machine intelligence, reliability, complexity, flexibility and cost. The Choquet integral-based neural network will be used for the aggregation of criteria and fitting the intuitive requirements for decision-making in the presence of interacting criteria. Finally, a case study of designing a robotic visual servoing system is presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":135246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Innovative Design and Manufacturing (ICIDM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114482565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper shows also the comparison with in-air ultrasound machining performed on the same materials. The comparison demonstrates an enhancement mainly in terms of surface finish, overcut and heat altered zone. Such enhancements are due to the capability of water to decrease the influence of high temperatures on the tool-surface interface and to facilitate the removal of the machined material. The underwater conditions make it possible to successfully drill and mill wax, too: in air the molten wax tends to refill the manufactured features, while in water wax immediately solidifies and a chip is formed. Another possible machining benefit is given by the cavitation effect which happens underwater and facilitates also chip removal.","PeriodicalId":135246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Innovative Design and Manufacturing (ICIDM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114907918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the primary objective is to provide user-interface for disabled people for artistic expression, special emphasis is given to the design of graphical user interface where bio-signals are the predominant input sources. Among three unique solution methodologies are investigated (Electromyography (EMG), Electrooculography (EOG) and Electroencephalography (EEG)), stimulation based human-computer interaction method (EEG feature extraction method) is found to be the most promising towards achieving design environments for performing complex tasks. Stimulation signals are used to replicate the multi-level ribbon style menu options which is typical format used in today's software interfaces. Users communicate with the computer by simply responding to appropriate stimulation signal through generating response signals. We propose an EEG feature extraction method based on Steady-State Visual Evoked Potential (SSVEP) to match the stimulating signals with the response signals. Successful pairing of stimulation signals with the brain's response enables users of such system to perform various actions including artistic expression in 3D.","PeriodicalId":135246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Innovative Design and Manufacturing (ICIDM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126192558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using EBD, designers can begin from recursively analysing the environment of the design task for gathering enough requirements to dig out the real intent of a design task. The question-asking techniques about the generic questions and domain questions can give designer a good practice on how to analyse the environment, it guides designer to fully consider the factors that affecting the design product. These factors may lie in each event or phase of any related lifecycle, or within any level of requirement from nature to human and built. Finally, the environment analysis will lay a foundation for later conflict identification and solution generation processes since designer have grasped the real intent of the design task to some extent.","PeriodicalId":135246,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2014 International Conference on Innovative Design and Manufacturing (ICIDM)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126398869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a methodology to support the configuration of assembly lines, mitigating risks and costs by introducing a best practice for global production systems provider companies. A set of system engineering rules is extracted from interviews and domain best practices and knowledge about product domain and design process is formalized. These rules will be implemented in a user-friendly platform allowing the design of first phase line layout by taking the defined system requirements (e.g. cycle time) as input. Then, the KBE approach is extended to a specific case study taken from the powertrain sector.

To do so they built a generic model of contradictions, the Generalized System of Contradictions (GSC). This paper proposes an algorithm for identifying and extracting generalized physical contradictions, a part of the GSC, from experiments. First, the authors' design methodology to build the continuum from optimization till invention is introduced. The notion of Generalized System of Contradictions is presented and the focus is made on the notion of Generalized Physical Contradiction.
