A feature is well known as a medium to integrate CAD, CAPP and CAM systems. For a part drawing including both simple geometry and compound geometry, a process plan such as the selection of process, machine tool, cutting tool etc. normally needs simple geometry data and non-geometry data of the feature as the input. However, a extended process plan such as the generation of process sequence, operation sequence, jig & fixture, NC program etc. necessarily needs the compound geometry data as well as the simple geometry data and non-geometry data. In this paper, we propose a feature data model according to the result of analyzing necessary data, including the compound geometry data, the simple geometry data and the non-geometry data. Also, an example of the feature data model in milling process planning is described.

Producing the relevant information (features) from the CAD models of CAM, called feature recognition or extraction, is the essential stage for the integration of CAD and CAM. Most feature recognition methods, however, have problems in the recognition of intersecting features because they do not handle the intersection geometry properly. In this paper, we propose a machining feature recognition algorithm, which has a solid model consisting of orthogonal primitives as input. The algorithm calculates candidate features and constitutes the Intersection Geometry Matrix which is necessary to represent the spatial relation of candidate features. Finally, it recognizes machining features from the proposed candidate features dividing and growing systems using half space and Boolean operation. The algorithm has the following characteristics: Though the geometry of part is complex due to the intersections of design primitives, it can recognize the necessary machining features. In addition, it creates the Maximal Feature Volumes independent of the machining sequences at the feature recognition stage so that it can easily accommodate the change of decision criteria of machining orders.

지리 정보 시스템을 위한 공간 데이터베이스 관리시스템간의 이질성을 최소화하고 공간 데이터의 호환성이나 상호 연동성을 높일 수 있도록 OGC에서 OpenGIS의 사양을 정의하였다. 본 연구에서는 OpenGIS에서 정의된 공간 데이터 모델을 지원하는 컴포넌트를 구현한 것이다. 즉, OpenGIS에서 요구되어진 사양에 따라 SFG (Simple Feature Geometry) 컴포넌트를 구현하였다. 본 논문에서는 컴포넌트 구현상의 발생되었던 문제점과 이 해결 방법을 제시한다. 또한 구현 도중에 발견된 OpenGIS SFG의 사양 자체의 문제점도 함께 제시한다.

A part definition must not only provide shape information of a nominal part but also contain non-shape information such as tolerances, surface roughness and material attributes. Although machining features are useful for suitable shape information for process reasoning in the CAPP, they need to be integrated with tolerance information for effective process planning. We develop the tolerance modeler that efficiently integrates machining features with tolerance information for feature-based CAPP It is based on the association of machining features, tolerance features. and tolerances Tolerance features, where tolerances are assigned, are classified into two types; one is the face that is a topological entity on a solid model and the other is the functional geometry that is not referenced to topological entities. The functional geometry is represented by using machining features All the data for representing tolerance information with machining features are stored completely and unambiguously in the independent tolerance structure. The developed tolerance modeler is implemented as a module of a comprehensive feature-based CAPP system.

In the framework of linear representation which allows for no internal structure within features, there is no way to represent nonlinear phonological phenomena such as complex segments. This paper shows how we carl solve some problems of the linear feature theory in relation to the hierarchical feature theory. The purpose of this paper is to explain lateral assimilation under hierarchical feature representation. Although arguments for the position of classes of distinctive features have been made the position of (lateral) remains the issue of debate. Sagey(1988) argues that the feature [lateral] is structurally dependent on the root node. In contrast Rice & Avery (1991) put the feature (lated) under the spontaneous voicing. I have discussed previous studies of feature hierarchy and I propose a revised model of feature representation. Within this model I have shown how well feature geometry describes lateralization as feature spreading.

Although a figure expression has a role of mediator in the geometry proof, it is not admitted to prove based on a vision-dependent feature. This study starts from the problem that although a figure expression has an important role in the geometry proof, a lot of students don't understand the limit of vision-dependent feature in the figure expression. We will investigate this problem to understand cognitive characteristic of students. Moreover, we try to get the didactical implications. To do this, we investigate the cognitive ability for a limit of vision-dependent feature, targeting a class of middle school seniors And we will have a personal interview with four students who show a lack of sense of limit of vision-dependent feature in the figure expression and two students for who it is difficult to judge that they don't understand the limit of vision-dependent feature in the figure expression. We will observe and analyzed the cognitive characteristic of six students. Based on the analysis, we will finally discuss on the didactical implications to help students understand the limit of vision-dependent feature in the figure expression.

This study is about development of Feature-based Solid Modeling system in integrated CAD/CAM environment. Parasolid modeling kernel and HOOPS/3D graphics library was used to develop this system in PC level. System feature library was defined using both procedural and declarative approach method. The raw stock is created by boolean operator using design primitives, and a part is designed that pre-defined feature is removed from the raw stock. This method is called "DSG(Destructive Solid Geometry)" and basic constructive operator of this system. This is not complete system and only the first step to develop Feature-based Solid Modeling System using Parasolid. We will add more powerful functionality and flexible GUI in Windows.n Windows.

The exchange of model design data among heterogeneous CAD systems is very difficult because each CAD system has different data structures suitable for its own functions. STEP represents product information in a common computer-interpretable form that is required to remain complete and consistent when the product information is needed to be exchanged among different computer systems. However, STEP has complex architecture to represent point, line, curve and vectors of element. Moreover it can't represent geometry data of feature based models. In this study, a structure of XML document that represents geometry data of feature based models as neutral format has been developed. To use the developed XML document, a converter also has been developed to exchange modules so that it can exchange feature based data models among heterogeneous CAD systems. Developed XML document and Converter have been applied to commercial CAD systems.

STEP has been able to represent product information as a common computer-interpretable form that is required to remain complete and consistent when the product informant is needed to be exchanged among different computer system. However, STEP has difficult architecture in is representing point, line, curve and vectors of element, more over it can't represent geometry data of feature based models. In this study, a structure of XML document that represents geometry data of feature based models as neutral format has been developed. To use the developed XML document, a Converter has also been developed to exchange modules so that it can exchange feature based data models among heterogeneous CAD systems. Aa for evaluation of the developed XML document and Converter, Solidworks and SolidEdge are selected.

Solid modeling refers to techniques for unambiguous representations of three- dimensional objects. The most widely used techniques for solid modeling have been Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) and Boundary Representation (BRep). Contemporary solid modeling systems typically support both representations, and bilateral conversions between CSG and BRep are essential. However, computing a CSG from a BRep is largely an open problem. This paper presents 3D geometric reasoning algorithms for converting a BRep into a special CSG, called Destructive Solid Geometry (DSG) whose Boolean operations are all subtractions. The major application area of BRep-to-DSG conversion is feature recognition, which is essential for integrating CAD and CAM.
