While repairing industrial machines or vehicles, recognition of components is a critical and time-consuming task for a human. In this paper, we propose to automatize this task. We start with a Principal Component Analysis (PCA), which fits the scanned point cloud with an ellipsoid by computing the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a 3-by-3 covariant matrix. In case there is a dominant eigenvalue, the point cloud is decomposed into two clusters to which the PCA is applied recursively. In case the matching is not unique, we continue to distinguish among several candidates. We decompose the point cloud into planar and cylindrical primitives and assign mutual features such as distance or angle to them. Finally, we refine the matching by comparing the matrices of mutual features of the primitives. This is a more computationally demanding but very robust method. We demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of the proposed methodology on a collection of 29 real scans and a database of 389 STL (Standard Triangle Language) models. As many as 27 scans are uniquely matched to their counterparts from the database, while in the remaining two cases, there is only one additional candidate besides the correct model. The overall computational time is about 10 min in MATLAB.

Reynolds’ equation for a full finite journal bearing lubricated by an incompressible fluid is solved by separation of variables to yield a general series solution. A resulting Hill equation is solved by Fourier series methods, and accurate eigenvalues and eigenvectors are calculated with a digital computer. The finite Sommerfeld problem is solved as an example, and precise values for the bearing load capacity are presented. Comparisons are made with the methods and numerical results of other authors.

Our overall goal is to develop software that facilitates the interactive participation of the designer in the optimization process. We are focusing this research on problems which use finite element solutions as part of the objective function. One challenge to implementing interactive participation in these types of problems is the high computational burden of computing a finite element solution for each design change. The research presented here focuses on a unique method to develop fast approximations for natural frequencies and mode shapes which can be used to avoid the time-consuming re-solution process and which will facilitate interactive design for systems with even large design changes.
