Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 機械工程學系 === 86 === This thesis uses the concepts of Object-Oriented Methodology to develop an expert system shell for assembly design of mechanical systems. First, an object-oriented knowledge representation method is defined for representing the necessary design data and design parameters for a mechanical assembly, then the connective relationships between mechanical components are established by the concepts of semantic network. A constraint representation format is developed to represent the design constraints between components of the system. Finally, an expert system shell is developed for operation and management of the knowledge base. After the initial data for the system are specified, assembly parameters for all feasible solutions can be found through the inference engine by satisfying the design constraint. The solid model of the assembly design for any feasible solution can be automatically generated in AutoCAD software. The detail design process of some demonstrative examples are included to show the capability of the developed expert system shell. The design process of two real machines are also included. It shows that the developed expert system shell can handle the assembly design easily and effectively.
