Abstract
In the theory of engineering design, the phase of conceptual design has recently been a very important field of research. In general, two approaches can be identified: production of descriptive and prescriptive conceptual design models. We believe that truly descriptive modelling of the conceptual design process will be possible only after a complete understanding of the functioning of the human brain has been achieved, since engineering design is one of the most complex human activities; obviously, this will not happen very soon. The LECAD team favours the prescriptive models, but believes that these need to be appropriately formalised in order to enable gradual automation of the process. The team bases its work on the assumption that it is possible to design technical systems by chaining physical laws. Emphasis is on the formalisation of chaining, connection of the basic schematics of physical laws, and function overlapping. The latter causes the generation of multifunction components. Formalisation of the use of topology, geometry and materials as sources of innovations is also stressed. Special attention will be paid to the evaluation of the generated solutions. Reconstruction of the existing technical systems and the conceptual design of entirely new ones will be used to test the appropriateness of these methods. The second group of research activities involves modelling of the structure of the human body from CT imaging and visualisation. In general, this field of research is extremely important for unusual medical cases. It is intended for quite a detailed 3D visualisation in order to enable a higher diagnostic accuracy. CT images can be recognised by their characteristic contours with the aid of contrast settings. Image contrasting is important for the recognition of various tissues in cross-sections. Research will therefore be oriented towards image processing and contrast analysis. It will later be supplemented to achieve spatial modelling of spatial contours obtained in this manner. Using surface patches, the surface itself will then be generated. Appropriate mathematical algorithms (the existing ones and new ones) will enable modelling in real time. The third group of research activities is oriented towards the research of information flows, from engineering design to the manufacturing process. Information models will be studied in a real industrial environment and compared with the theoretical models which are based on a full knowledge of the design process, since research to date has proven that it is necessary to determine the generators of information more clearly and identify the direct users and repeaters, and subsequently to ensure a recognisable information database for individual products. Upgrading of the information system in a manufacturing environment will include a study of the bases for a virtual production space, which is integrated into the real environment at various locations.
