This paper proposes a multi-level product modeling framework for long-term lifecycle products. The framework can help engineers to define product models and relate them to physical instances. The framework is defined in three levels; data, design model, modeling language. The data level represents real-world products, The model level describes design models of real-world products. The modeling language level defines concepts and relationships to describe product design models. The concepts and relationships in the modeling language level enable engineers to express the semantics of product models in an engineering-friendly way. The interactions between these three levels are explained to show how the framework can manage long-term lifecycle product information. A prototype system is provided for further understanding of the framework.

Application of CAE analyses are wide spread in shaping processes and structural safety verification of plastic products. The importance of CAE analysis and its contributions are getting increase since the processibility and structural safety of product can be predicted. CAE analysis for complex shaped product need a lot of time for modeling and computation compare with simpler one. Therefore careful simulation modeling is required for complex shaped product. Structural analysis for plastic door handle of automobile has been performed and structural safety has been investigated for various load directions and modeling cases. Large stress occurred at the hinge in handle regardless of load direction and modeling case. Consequently hinge is considered structurally very weak among the parts in plastic door handle. It is concluded that simple modeling rather than total modeling with adequate boundary condition equivalent to real situation gives reasonable computational results with saving modeling effort and computation time.

In mass customization, the focus is variety and customization through flexibility and quick responsiveness. Mass customizers seek to provide personalized, custom-designed products at low prices to give customers exactly what they want and to provide sufficient variety in products and services. The idea of the product family is the most adequate approach to realize mass customization. An understanding of customer needs using functional decomposition becomes necessary to enhance the performance of the product family. This paper focuses on functional architecture modeling based on customer need regarding sub-functions for the product family. A quantitative functional model captures product functionality and customer need. Based on customer need ratings and sub-function, a product-function matrix was created. Additionally, a product-product matrix was generated to provide a similarity index among product families. A case study for implementing the functional architecture modeling was performed on the single use cameras.

Enterprise integration, which aims to enhance an enterprise's competitive edge, requires a highly structured product information model as a common product database. Previous research works on this issue have been narrowly focused on the transformation of product information between various operation areas, leading to a situation where enterprise integration lacks a formal method of information modeling. In this paper, research works and issues surrounding product information modeling for enterprise integration are reviewed, and the requirements for a product information model are identified. A product information model called L3DPIM (Layered Three Dimentional Product Information Model) is proposed, which is based on a feature-based design process. This model is expected to serve as a modeling paradigm for enterprise integration.

This paper deals with an application on the mould machining of air intake hose product by using 3-dimensional parametric modeling techniques. The detailed domain is the 3-dimensional product with similar shapes and different sizes which needs too much working time for preparation of modeling or machining due to making a trial and errors repeatedly. Decision making rules for selection of modeling order and technique, and for calculation of cutting conditions, and for determination of sequence and method concerning machining operations are required by interview of expert engineers in the field. The developed expert system of modeling and machining is programmed by using a user programming language under the CAD/CAM software of the Personal Designer. The developed system that aids a mould engineer who is working in the modeling and machining section which deal with air intake hose product provides strong and useful capabilities.

A core technology that may realize the Semantic Web is Ontology. The OWL (Web Ontology Language) has been positioned as a standard language. It requires technical expertise to directly represent the domain knowledge in OWL. Based on our experience of analyzing the fundamental relationships of concepts in e-catalog domain, we have developed a visual product information modeler called PROMOD. The modeling editor makes it possible to automatically generate the OWL codes for the given product information. We employ an Extended Entity-Relationship for conceptual modeling, enriched with modeling elements specialized for the product domain. In this paper, we present our translation schemes from EER model to OWL codes, and how to design and implement the modeling editor. We also provide a scenario to demonstrate the usage of the editor in practice.

Environmental Product Life Cycle Management is an activity for defining and describing the product, process of activity environmentally. The activity involves the full life cycle stages of the product; evaluating environmental releases at each stage, determining the aggregate and specific impacts of the releases, developing opportunities to effect environmental improvements. This paper presents a methodological approach for database modeling to build Product Life Cycle Management system and show a set of database modeling. Additionally, a key issue for database is the quality of the provided information.

This study deals with the method for modeling relationship between human sensibility and design dldments of a product for applying human sensibility to product development, Inorder to extract sensibility characteeristics concerning a product, we figured out the relationship between xensibilith and design elements using corrdlation analysis and multiple regression analysis, and then modeled the realtionship between then through multiple objective linert programming. The results of this study can be effectively applied to develop a product based on human sensibility

The process of generating basic modeling data in product design and production design is very important and it takes a lot of time to produce. To overcome these shortcomings, 3D scanning technology is emerging that can easily acquire modeling data. In this paper, we propose a technique to convert the image data from the image data to the modeling data after shooting the objects in the space, and generate the basic modeling data applicable to the product design. It also suggests ways to redirect and utilize the basic modeling data of the product.

Product modeling technology for graphics is rapidly developing. And 3D data application and usability are increasing.modeling of product design is a very important factor in constructing. 3D modeling in product design takes a lot of production time. Recently, the reverse design method is very useful because of application of 3D data and shortening of production time. In this study, first, 3D point cloud and mesh data are generated using photographs based on image data. The second is to modify the design and the third is to make the prototype with the 3D printer. This product design and production process suggests the utilization and possibility of image data, the shortening of 3D modeling production time and efficient processes. Also, the product design process proposes a model of a new product development system to adapt to the production environment.
