Abstract
Successful entry of a product into the market can best occur if it can
complete the cycle (product planning, conceptual design, detail design,
process planning and production) for product development and realization in
the shortest possible time and at the lowest cost, while maintaining very high
product quality and reliability. In this respect, physical prototyping can prove
to be very lengthy and expensive especially if modifications resulting from
design reviews involve tool redesign. The availability and affordability of
advanced computer technology has paved the way for increasing utilization
of prototypes that are digital and created in computer-based environments,
i.e. they are virtual as opposed to being physical. A prototype can be defined
as “the first or original example of something that has been or will be copied or developed; it is a model or preliminary version.” Virtual Prototyping is
becoming very advanced and may eventually dominate the product
development process. It facilitates communication between different
engineering disciplines during the early design process, and also provides
quality illustrations that help "sell" the design.
In this paper based on the modeling objectives and purposes, five
broad classes of VP methods such as Visualization, Fit and interference of
mechanical assemblies, Testing and verification of functions and
performance, Evaluation of manufacturing and assembly operation, Human
factor analysis are described.
