An Extended Integrated Model Of Designing
(2014-06-20)Product success is a major goal of designing and design research. Designing involves developing systems. A system interacts with its environment to satisfy its requirements. Therefore, designing should involve developing ... -
Extended Reality based Digital Twin of Arc Welding
Arc welding is an important permanent joining process widely used across multiple industries such as transportation, infrastructure construction and equipment manufacturing. However, the inherent high-energy physics and ... -
A Feasibility Map-Based Framework and Its Implementation for Selection in Engineering Design
(2018-06-26)A pragmatic method for selecting components and devices from a database or parameterized models is developed in this thesis. The quantitative framework presented here is sufficiently general to accommodate an entire device ... -
Feature-based Approach for Semantic Interoperability of Shape Models
(2018-02-20)Semantic interoperability (SI) of a product model refers to automatic exchange of meaning associated with the product data, among applications/domains throughout the product development cycle. In the product development ... -
Finite Element Modeling of Knee Joint to Study Tibio-Femoral Contact Machanics
(2018-05-10)Articular cartilage covers the articulating ends of diarthrodial joints. It plays a vital role in the function of the musculoskeletal system by allowing almost frictionless motion to occur between the articular surfaces ... -
Formulation of A Framework for Needs Analysis and Stakeholders' Behavioral Simulation for Design for the BOP
Poverty, and associated undesirability, distinguishes a population as Base of the (economic) Pyramid (BoP). Lack of necessities and vulnerability negatively affect the well-being of BoP populations. Literature reveals ... -
A Framework for Effectiveness-based Sustainability Assessment in Manufacturing – A Product Life Cycle Approach
In recent decades, various human health impacts and environmental concerns (e.g., microplastic pollution, chemical exposure, biodiversity loss) associated with manufacturing/product life cycles have surfaced, threatening ... -
Gaze Estimation in the Wild - Models, Datasets and Usability
Human eye gaze estimation research has numerous applications in diverse fields from Human Computer Interaction (HCI) to aviation. Non-intrusive video oculography based methods are classified into two categories based on ... -
A Geometric Approach for Discrete and Statistical Reach Analysis for a DHM with Mutable Supports
(2017-12-05)Conventional ergonomics analysis involves building physical mockups and conducting simulated operations, such that the constraints experienced by the human subjects can be directly observed. The limitations of this approach ... -
A Geometric Framework For Vision Modeling In Digital Human Models Using 3D Tessellated Head Scans
(2011-08-25)The present work deals with the development of a computational geometric framework for vision modeling for performing visibility and legibility analyses in Digital Human Modeling (DHM) using the field-of-view (FoV), estimated ... -
Inclusive and Eye-Gaze Controlled Human-Robot Interaction for Persons with Severe Speech and Motor Impairment
Most individuals perform various activities of daily living without having to con sciously think and plan about them. People talk, cook their food, move around the house, drive to their workplace and schools, play sports, ... -
Information Extraction and Mapping for Populating Ontologies in Product Lifecycle Management
Computer-based tools used to manage a product's lifecycle from the cradle to the grave need to share product information across phases. If this information is well structured, accessing, and manipulating such information ... -
An Integrated Framework for Supporting Decision Making During Early Design Stages on End-of-Life Product Disassembly
(2017-10-31)Product life cycle (PLC) is the cycle which every product goes through from introduction to eventual demise. There are several issues with the current life cycle of a product when looked from the environmental impact ... -
Integrating Product Model With Assembly Process Model Using Liaisons
(2014-04-09)This thesis addresses the problem of achieving better convergence between different phases (here design and manufacturing) of the product development cycle. The use of liaison has been proposed to better integrate the ... -
An Integrative Approach to Vision Simulations using Digital Human Models
Digital Human Models (DHM), belong to a class of human-in-the-loop simulations having primary applications in the area of virtual ergonomics, virtual prototyping, and task evaluations. These models replicate physical and ... -
Intelligent Gaze Controlled Interface for Limited Mobility Environment
Eye movement-based Human Computer Interaction (HCI) has become a significant area of research in computer science. The gaze-based computing devices allow a computer to be controlled using only eye movements, which can be ... -
