Abstract

There is increasing interest in the use of computer systems to support the design and construction of a wide range of engineering products. Such Computer Aided Design/Computer Aided Manufacture (CAD/CAM) systems permit designs to be created and modified interactively by the designer. Once completed, the design may be checked for consistency and conformance with design rules, and simulated to compare the actual performance with that anticipated by the designer. Finally, all the necessary information to control the final manufacturing process can be generated automatically.
