DIMENSIONAL TOLERANCE APPROXIMATION FOR REVERSE ENGINEERING APPLICATIONS
Jamshidi, J.; Mileham, A.R.; Owen, G.W. // 2006
Tolerance accommodation is normally a re-engineering process rather than the Reverse Engineering (RE) of a component. This can jeopardise the exactness of the re-designed data or increase the RE cost ...
EXPERIENCE BASED COST MANANGEMENT IN THE EARLY STAGES OF PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
Zrim, G.; Maletz, M.; Lossack, R. // 2006
Function orientation and process cost management allows a transparent and complete estimation of costs in the early phases of product development based on developer’s experience. The present approach ...
INFLUENCE OF THERMAL DILLATATION UPON DESIGN OF SCREW MACHINES
Kovacevic, A.; Stosic, N.; Mujic, E.; Smith, I.K. // 2006
Close control of the clearances between the rotors and the casing is essential for efficient and quiet oil free compression or expansion in twin screw machines. Differential thermal expansion between ...
INFORMATION MANAGEMENT FOR THE DIGITAL FACTORY - BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN ENGINEERING DESIGN AND DIGITAL PLANNING
Burr, H.; Vielhaber, M.; Weber, C. // 2006
In today’s development processes, an efficient information handling is an essential success factor. In this article, the so-called shell model is introduced. The shell model is a data model for a ...

Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
