Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality in Industry
"Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality in Industry" collects the proceedings of the 2nd Sino-German Workshop on the same topic held in Shanghai on April 16-17, 2009. The papers focus on the latest Virtual Reality (VR) / Augmented Reality (AR) technology and its application in industrial processes and presents readers with innovative methods, typical case studies and the latest information on VR/AR basic research results and industrial applications, such as 3D rendering, innovative human-machine design, VR/AR methodology and new tools for assisting in industry, virtual assembly, virtual factory, training and education, etc. The book is intended for computer scientists, IT engineers as well as researchers in Mechanical Engineering. Dr. Dengzhe Ma and Dr. Xiumin Fan are both professors at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China; Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Gausemeier is a professor of Computer-Integrated Manufacturing at the Heinz Nixdorf Institute, University of Paderborn, Germany; Dipl.-Ing. Michael Grafe is a senior engineer in the Product Engineering Research Group at the Heinz Nixdorf Institute, University of Paderborn.
Industrie 4.0 in a Global Context
The transformation of the economy being brought about by Industrie 4.0 is leading to the emergence of highly flexible value networks. Businesses now need to network their production activities both in-house and with the systems of external partners. This in turn requires new forms of cooperation, both nationally and globally. Common norms and standards enabling interoperability between different systems are equally essential. This acatech STUDY analyses the opportunities and challenges for businesses of international cooperation and the current competition to establish norms and standards. It is based on interviews and discussions with more than 150 experts from Germany, China, Japan, South Korea, the US and the UK. Detailed country profiles describe the background situation and Industrie 4.0 status quo in the focus countries. Finally, the study makes a number of recommendations for German actors regarding cooperation with international partners.
Dependability of Self-Optimizing Mechatronic Systems
Intelligent technical systems, which combine mechanical, electrical and software engineering with methods from control engineering and advanced mathematics, go far beyond the state of the art in mechatronics and open up fascinating perspectives. Among these systems are so-called self-optimizing systems, which are able to adapt their behavior autonomously and flexibly to changing operating conditions. The Collaborative Research Center 614 "Self-optimizing concepts and structures in mechanical engineering" pursued the long-term aim to enable others to develop dependable self-optimizing systems. Assuring their dependability poses new challenges. However, self-optimization also offers the possib...
Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design I
The design of complex artifacts and systems requires the cooperation of multidisciplinary design teams using multiple commercial and non-commercial engineering tools such as CAD tools, modeling, simulation and optimization software, engineering databases, and knowledge-based systems. Individuals or individual groups of multidisciplinary design teams usually work in parallel and separately with various engineering tools, which are located on different sites, often for quite a long time. At any moment, individual members may be working on different versions of a design or viewing the design from various perspectives, at different levels of detail. In order to meet these requirements, it is necessary to have effective and efficient collaborative design environments. These environments should not only automate individual tasks, in the manner of traditional computer-aided engineering tools, but also enable individual members to share information, collaborate and coordinate their activities within the context of a design project. CSCW (computer-supported cooperative work) in design is concerned with the development of such environments.
Generic Systems Engineering
In dem Band wird ein Denkmodell mit Umsetzungskonzept vorgestellt, das den Umgang mit Komplexität in der Produktentwicklung und der Produktion erleichtert. Abgeleitet von einfachen Regeln, beruht der Ansatz auf dem Konzept des Systems Engineering. Unterschiedliche, zum Systems Engineering entwickelte Vorgehenskonzepte werden darin zusammengeführt, um gegenwärtige und zukünftige Dimensionen der Komplexität zu bewältigen. Die schnell erfass- und erlernbaren Lösungsansätze werden anhand ausgewählter Beispiele der Produktentwicklung illustriert.
Digitalization
What do vehicle manufacturers like Rosenbauer, logistics companies like DB Schenker, a compressor manufacturer such as Bauer, an elevator manufacturer such as ThyssenKrupp, and a hygiene goods manufacturer like Hagleitner all have in common? They all use the potential of digitization to offer smarter and faster services to customers and to actively shape the digital transformation of their business models. This book provides valuable insights with concise and established guidelines for the successful digital transformation of business models. Professionals in management, strategic planning, business development, as well as researchers and students from the fields of innovation/technology management, strategic management, and entrepreneurship would particularly benefit from this book.
Changing the Ways We Work
This book highlights the effects of an increasing use of information technology, IT, in manufacturing. Mainly, focus is on the changes in organisation, in working procedures and in the demands on the capabilities of the personnel, both on the shop floor and the engineering and management levels. It disseminates information from the research and development carried out under ESPRIT's Integration in Manufacturing domain as well as from other activities in similar domains in industry and academia. A particular focus is on giving an overview and resume of work undertaken in the Third and Fourth Research Framework Programmes of ESPRIT.
Virtual Prototyping
A virtual prototype is a major interim step towards the creation of a virtual environment. This book explores the simulation, interaction, concepts and tools of virtual prototypes and environments. It provides a mixture of state-of-the-art, advanced research and industrial papers.
