Title : Modeling for High-Quality Designs
Date : November 10, 2006. (2:00 pm) Tea starts half an hour before each seminar
Location: BSP 131
Speaker : Dr. Ioana Boier-Martin
Abstract:
In this talk, I will present an overview of research activities pertaining to modeling for high-quality designs for product development. These activities focus on several types of modeling and simulation for mechanical, as well as integrated, system-level product design. In the first part of my talk, I will discuss our research on subdivision surfaces and their applicability to mechanical CAD/CAE. In the second part of the talk, I will describe how system modeling allows us to integrate mechanical models with artifacts from other engineering disciplines (e.g., software, electronics, requirements) to develop full product models that can be used to facilitate product-level reasoning. I will illustrate the results of this research with several demos.
