A constraint-based approach for assessing the capabilities of existing designs to handle product variation (2008)
Thesis
Matthews, J. A constraint-based approach for assessing the capabilities of existing designs to handle product variation. (Thesis). University of Bath. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/1012956All production machinery is designed with an inherent capability to handle slight variations in product. This is initially achieved by simply providing adjustments to allow, for example, changes that occur in pack sizes to be accommodated, through us...

Embedding general constraint resolution into a CAD system
Conference Proceeding
Singh, B., Matthews, J., Mullineux, G., & Medland, A. J. (2006). Embedding general constraint resolution into a CAD system. In D. Marjanovic (Ed.), In DS 36: Proceedings DESIGN 2006, the 9th International Design Conference, Dubrovnik, CroatiaComputer aided design (CAD) has facilitated designer's task by automating many of the activities involved in a conventional design process. This can be further augmented by use of constraints in CAD systems. However there is still need for incorporat... Read More about Embedding general constraint resolution into a CAD system.
