Conceptual Models of Information Content for Product Modeling
Acta Polytechnica Hungarica · 2014
Modeling of product as a system is the new era of virtual product development.Requirement, Functional, Logical, and Physical (RFLP) structure provides system engineering based product definition in product modeling which allows to more effectively translate requirements of the customers into the physical form.But, it is difficult in RFLP structure to store and organize the knowledge of product model in a generic format so that engineers of different disciplines gain detailed knowledge of participating components in order to make the most effective decision.In this paper, a conceptual model is proposed by classifying the information content.This is done in context of the engineering discipline and system behavior.Info-Chunk is proposed in the logical level of RFLP structure.They are mapped with the information content and describe the parameters of the model for representing the engineering object.The models are used to guide the engineer to a precise correlating decision.
