Abstract The need for superior design tools has lead to the development of better and more complex computer aided design programs. Two of the more important new developments in application tools being investigation are Object Oriented Languages, and HyperMedia. Object Oriented Languages allow the development of CAD tools where the parts being designed and the design procedures specified are conceptualized as objects. This allows for the development of design aids that are non-procedural and more readily manipulated by the user trying to accomplish a design task. HyperMedia allows for the easy inclusion of many different types of data, such as design charts and graphs, into the tool that are normally difficult to include in design tools programmed with more conventional programming languages. This paper explores the development of a computer aided design tool for the design of a single stage gear box using the development HyperCard® environment and the HyperTalk® programming language. The resulting program provides a user friendly interface, the ability to handle several kinds of design information including graphic and textual, and a non-procedural design tool to help the user design simple, one stage gear boxes. Help facilities in the program make it suitable for undergraduate instruction in a machine elements design course.

Abstract This research focuses on the development of an object-oriented case-based process planner which combines the advantages of the variant and generative approaches to process planning. The case-based process planner operates on general 3D prismatic parts, represented by a collection of features (eg: slots, pockets, holes, etc.). Each feature subplan is developed by the case-based planner. Then the feature subplans are combined into the global process plan for the part via a hierarchical plan merging mechanism. Abstracted feature subplans correspond to cases, which are used in subsequent planning operations to solve new problems. The abstracting and storing of feature subplans as cases is the primary mechanism by which the planner learns from its previous experiences to become more effective and efficient. The computer-aided process planner is designed to be extensible and flexible through the effective use of object-oriented principles.

Feature is one of the methods for representing objects from which are representing components, products and processes. This article presents methods for integration of features of methods in modeling and analysis of composite structural components. The aim of the research is to develop methods for verification and validation of composite layered structure, distinguishing components of the individual layers and identify the relationship between them. By applying the method of features it is possible to determine the structure of the composite fit to the requirements of design and construction. Proposed new types of feature, which allows the creation of object-oriented structures of composite components.

The logistics of railway electrification engineering, because of its unique industrial characteristics and intrinsic characteristics, can't be directly applied to the existing departments, industries, and the management information systems of other countries at present. In this paper, the logistics system of railway electrification engineering is analyzed based on object oriented analysis and in combination with the supply chain management information system and the author thinks that the key to analyzing the logistics information management system design of railway electrification engineering lies in the expression to the railway electrification engineering transportation supply chain management logic structure, and finally a computer aided decision system (CPFR model) based on the railway electrification engineering transportation supply chain distribution is established using data mining technology and object-oriented data model.
