Tolerance aware product development using an enriched hybrid digital mock up (DMU) (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Friel, I., Butterfield, J., Robinson, T., & Marzano, A. (2018, January). Tolerance aware product development using an enriched hybrid digital mock up (DMU). Presented at 2018 AIAA/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics, and Materials Conference, Kissimmee, Florida

Current practice in three dimensional (3D) part construction and product assembly definition within a digital mock up (DMU) is based on the nominal sizing of geometry. This approach does not reflect real part dimensions when they are manufactured or... Read More about Tolerance aware product development using an enriched hybrid digital mock up (DMU).
