Unstructured workspaces which are typical in construction contain unpredicable activities as well as changing environments. Most automated and semi-automated construction tasks require real-time information about the local workspace in the form of 3D geometric models. This paper describes and demonstrates a new rapid, local area geometric data extraction and 3D visualization method for unstructured construction workspaces that combines human perception, simple sensors, and descriptive CAD models. The rapid approach will be useful in construction in construction in order to optimize automated equipment tasks and to significantly improve safety and a remote operator's spatial perception of the workspace.

Prioritizing the design specifications among many alternatives is necessary at the stage of concept design. Design specifications have trade-offs between cost and performance, and the relationships among them, in the standpoint of various functional requirements, are complex. AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process) method is one of the most popular ways of solving the priority setting problem. However, it is impossible to monitor the interim findings in the middle of the process, it is hard to predict the difference when changing pairwise comparison conditions, and the operation done by one person makes it hard to share the process simultaneously. This paper shows a new method of priority setting in this kind of decision making problem. This method is designed to support the realtime priority setting among many design specifications with regards to many functional requirements. A new algorithm and visualization methods are introduced, and the usability is verified in an exemplary concept design stage.

We propose an image-based three-dimensional shape determination system. The shape, and thus the three-dimensional coordinate information of the 3-D object, is determined solely from captured images of the 3-D object from a prescribed set of viewpoints. The approach is based on the shape-from-silhouette (SFS) technique, and the efficacy of the SFS method is tested using a sample data set. The extracted three-dimensional shape is modeled with polygons generated by a new iterative triangulation algorithm, and the polygon model can be exported to commercial software. The proposed system may be used to visualize the 3-D object efficiently, or to quickly generate initial CAD data for reverse engineering purposes, including three dimensional design applications such as 3-D animation and 3-D games.

A simulation system for versatile garment drape has been developed. Using this system, the shape of a garment can be simulated in consideration of fabric physical properties as well as the interaction between fabrics and other objects. Each fabric piece in a garment is modeled using a geometrically constrained particle system and its behavior is calculated from an implicit numerical integration algorithm in a relatively short time. The system consists of three modules including a preprocessor for the preparation of fabric patterns and external objects, a postprocessor for the results of three-dimensional visualization, and a drape simulation engine. It can be used for the design process of textile goods, garments, furniture, or upholsteries.

본 연구에서는 콘크리트의 균열을 추출하여 추출한 균열을 분석하고 시각화하여 나타내는 방법을 제안한다. 추출한 균열을 분석하여 길이, 넓이, 평균 폭 등의 주요 지표를 측정하여 균열 부위에 대한 세부 정보를 파악할 수 있게 하였다. 특히 균열 분석 과정에서 기존의 균열 중심부와 에지 간의 직선 최단 거리 계산을 통한 균열 폭 측정 방식이 아닌 내접원 탐색 방식을 적용하여 다각형의 균열에 대한 폭 측정 방식을 제안하고 있다. 또한 분석 결과를 Wavefront 3D OBJ 모델과 CAD 파일로 생성하였고, 이를 웹 브라우저를 통해 입체적으로 볼 수 있도록 시각화 하였다.

As architectural forms tend to be large-scaled, high-storied and complicated, use of computer for processing design information has been generalized. However, CAD use in the process of developing architectural design has been neglected greatly in the educational field of architectural field due to the surging of recognition that it may limit the essential property of architectural design. It may be resulted from the limitation of CAD system, that is, it is because of tardy speed of application development for the related areas with the lack of simplicity and clarity of flexibility to be secured on the drawing and user interface. Recent CAD systems, however, overcome such a limitation, convert into object-based design from entity-based drawing, drafting and modeling for implementing design concept of architects and it connects with internet linked to superspeed information communication network and changes process and stream of architectural design. Therefore, this study deals with utility of object based CAD system with products of Autodesk Co. and consequently obtain the following conclusions. First, it expands architect's design areas by supporting cooperative design system based on model-based architectural design and internet. Second, it reduces consumption of personal and material resources and time in the process of drawing production for improving architectural design works. Third, it can reduce the frequent design changes by improving understanding of architectural space with visualization of immediate 3D information, escaping from traditional methods to deliver design information to building owner through 2D drawing or model and perspective drawing requiring much cost and time. Fourth, it keeps exactness without omission or duplication of design information and generate and renew information of all related drawings on a drawing. Fifth, it is possible to change difficult and boring architectural design work into a pleasure owing to immediate modeling and drawing of design idea. In addition, digital drawing generated by using object-based CAD system can playa role of establishing Urban Information System to be used for protecting from building in disaster and urban disasters in connection with GIS numerical map and be used for reference of all kinds of information required fro post-management of buildings. However, what is more important is that surplus time from introduction of object-based CAD system should be used for consideration to be recognized as a good space and building built as a product of this project for comfort to urban people.

Currently used 3D models, which are mostly focused on visualization of 3D objects and lack topological structure, have limitation in being used for 3D spatial analyses and applications. However, implementing a full topology for the indoor spatial objects is less practical due to the increase of complexity and computation time. This study suggests an alternative method to build a 3D indoor model with less complexity using a spatial DBMS. Storing spatial and nonspatial information of indoor spaces in DB tables enables faster queries, computation and analyses. Also it is possible to display them in 2D or 3D using the queried information. This study suggests a 2D-3D hybrid data model, which combines the 2D topology constructed from CAD floor plans and stored in a spatial DBMS and the 3D visualization functionality. This study showed the process to build the proposed model in a spatial DBMS and use spatial functions and queries to visualize in 2D and 3D. And, then, as an example application, it illustrated the process to build an indoor evacuation simulator.

Cable dome structures are composed of cables-masts and the cables should be in pre-tension since a structure without pre-tension is not stable. Under the pretension, self equilibrium stress state is the main characteristic of a cable dome structure. In this paper, a new method based on the basic principle of closed force polygon for equilibrium system is proposed for the determination of self-equilibrium mode of cable dome structure. The proposed method which is called geometric method has the unique characteristic of visualization of the force mode needed for maintenance of self-equilibrium. The basic theory for a self equilibrium of structure is that the summation of forces at each joint without any external load should be zero. The simplicity of the method which involves only drawing close polygon with the aid of suitable CAD software has been illustrated by means of a example. The results compared with mechanical calculation and existed method and shows good agreement.

In case a set of railway vehicles moves on a rail track, the end of each car in which a coupler is installed produces a complex movement depending on the displacement of a rail track, bogie and a coupler. Especially, the movement of an end of cars is hugely affected by a radius of gyration and gradient of a rail track, vertical and lateral movement of bogie, and compression of coupler. In this thesis, I present a simulation technic for easy input and change of displacement of a rail track, bogie and a coupler as well as visualization of movement of the end of cars on a rail track using CATIA V5, CAD software.
