Abstract
Variational assembly analysis is generally a complex problem. In this paper, a method to calculate the virtual and the resultant part for assembly is presented. These two parts represent an extension of the maximum and minimum material part theory previously proposed by Robinson [13]. They may be used during the analysis of the mechanical assembly in order to reduce complexity of the analysis. For a given part, the virtual and the resultant parts are not unique. Ts paper describes the method of calculation of a virtual and a resultant part. This method takes into account datum chaining between toleranced features. A kinematic model is used.
