Description

A TECHNOLOGY ASSISTED PROBLEM SOLVING SYSTEM AND
METHOD THEREOF
FIELD OF INVENTION
The invention relates to an interactive multimedia problem solving system. More particularly, the invention relates to a system and method for analysing a technology assisted problem during a design phase of a product. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Analysis and simulation software is an indispensable tool in the development of large- scale machinery. These tools allow the developer to evaluate designs early in the design cycle, determine causes of premature failures in the field, quickly explore design changes aimed at reducing cost and weight, and determine the product’s factor of safety. Use of the analysis tools is of particular value to machine designers due to the size and complexity of the systems they are developing. The analysis tools can identify design issues that may elude a designer’s review simply because of the dynamic nature of machinery’s many moving parts.
The unyielding demands upon machinery manufacturers by customers and the market to create systems that are cheaper, more reliable, and more productive necessitate that companies that wish to remain successful utilize all the tools available to them. These analysis tools reduce product development costs through a reduction of late engineering changes. They ensure the products reach the market promptly, allowing the product to capture the largest piece of the market possible. Finally, it allows engineers to experiment with materials and designs that can result in products of minimal weight and cost. Analysis software enables engineers to simulate design performance and identify and address potential design problems before prototyping and production. Regardless of the specific application, machine designers are under pressure from their customers: increase reliability and longevity; be quicker to market with new, improved products; reduce product weight and cost; and increase productivity. Working in this type of environment, the engineers have little time to produce multiple prototypes and use trial and error to gain a better understanding of the physical behaviour of their designs. Yet, that information is vital for producing innovative, high-quality products.
The analysis tools also helps the machine designers to understand the physical behaviour of their designs quickly without resorting to expensive prototypes and physical tests that extend the product design cycle. Further, the analysis tools can substantially reduce the number of ECOs, missed deadlines due to redesigns late in the design cycle, and costly redesigns at manufacturing time. All of these markedly decrease development costs and time-to-market. Furthermore, these analysis tools increase communication between design, sales, marketing, manufacturing, and the customer through their easy-to-read and understandable graphical results.
The analysis tools also carryout motion analysis which is extremely valuable in the development of the machines are, by their nature, extremely complex, dynamic assemblies. Running the motion analysis allows designers to perform virtual testing before manufacturing physical prototypes, saves time and money during the iterative design cycle. Changes prior to cutting metal are far cheaper and quicker to enact. This motion analysis allows the designer to learn more about the machinery in the concept phase and perform dynamic interference detection prior to building engineering models. However, the existing tools are not reliable as they do provide only detection of the problems. Further, they are not designed to solve engineering problems in a step- by-step fashion.
Therefore, there is need for such a system that use patterns of interactions for solving the engineering problem related to relative motion analysis based on step-by-step method.
