Product Grammar: Constructing and Mapping Solution spaces
نویسنده
چکیده
Developing a design methodology that accounts for systemand component-level parameters in the design of products is a challenge for design and manufacturing organizations. Designed products like automobiles, personal electronics, mass-customized homes, and apparel follow design processes that have evolved over time into compartmentalized approaches toward design synthesis. Many products are designed “by committee” because the nature of the problem is sufficiently sophisticated that isolating the different disciplines of engineering, design, manufacturing, and marketing has become the only way to produce a product. This thesis rethinks design methods by critically analyzing design rules and their role in product development. Systematic and unbiased mapping of possible configurations is a method employed in generative design systems. A mapping of a solution space is achieved by parameterizing the constraints of the problem in order to develop a feasible envelope of possibilities at the component and system level. Once parametric modeling begins, then a flexible hierarchical and associative assembly must be put in place to integrate components into the product structure. What results is a complex tree structure of the possible solutions that can be optimized to ergonomic, structural, aerodynamic, manufacturing and material perspectives. The tree structure is organized so that any changes in the component structure can be accommodated at any level. Subsystems can then be easily substituted in order to fit to masscustomization preferences. Thesis supervisor: William J.

Extensions of Saeidi's Propositions for Finding a Unique Solution of a Variational Inequality for $(u,v)$-cocoercive Mappings in Banach Spaces
Let $C$ be a nonempty closed convex subset of a real Banach space $E$, let $B: C rightarrow E $ be a nonlinear map, and let $u, v$ be positive numbers. In this paper, we show that the generalized variational inequality $V I (C, B)$ is singleton for $(u, v)$-cocoercive mappings under appropriate assumptions on Banach spaces. The main results are extensions of the Saeidi's Propositions for fi...
متن کاملFixed point theorems for new J-type mappings in modular spaces
In this paper, we introduce $rho$-altering $J$-type mappings in modular spaces. We prove some fixed point theorems for $rho$-altering and $rho$-altering $J$-type mappings in modular spaces. We also furnish illustrative examples to express relationship between these mappings. As a consequence, the results are applied to the existence of solution of an integral equation arising from an ODE ...
متن کاملOn the Monotone Mappings in CAT(0) Spaces
In this paper, we first introduce a monotone mapping and its resolvent in general metric spaces.Then, we give two new iterative methods by combining the resolvent method with Halpern's iterative method and viscosity approximation method for finding a fixed point of monotone mappings and a solution of variational inequalities. We prove convergence theorems of the proposed iterations in ...
متن کاملNEW METHODS FOR CONSTRUCTING GENERALIZED GROUPS, TOPOLOGICAL GENERALIZED GROUPS, AND TOP SPACES
The purpose of this paper is to introduce new methods for constructing generalized groups, generalized topological groups and top spaces. We study some properties of these structures and present some relative concrete examples. Moreover, we obtain generalized groups by using of Hilbert spaces and tangent spaces of Lie groups, separately.
