Abstract:
Designing new mechatronic systems for vehicle applications is a complex and time-consuming process. The increasing computational power allows us to generate automatically novel and new mechatronic discrete-topology concepts in an efficient manner. Using state-of-the-art computational design synthesis techniques assures that the complete search space, given a finite set of system elements, is processed to find all feasible topologies. The topology generation is done by converting the design synthesis problem into a constraint satisfaction problem. Accordingly, this mathematical problem is solved by assigning the presence of components and connections to variables, whereby a set of mathematical constraints need to be satisfied. These constraints capture, in essence, formalized engineering knowledge. After solving this problem, the results are post-processed to discard redundant topologies due to isomorphism. In this paper, a newly developed software application with automated constraint generation is presented that facilitates the topology generation with multiple system levels in a loop. The scalability of the problem and the different levels of expressiveness are analyzed, and the influence of the abstraction level choice on the search space is discussed. Finally, a relevant mechatronic design study from the automotive engineering field is discussed concerning the topology synthesis of alternative electro-hydraulic actuation systems being part of new continuously variable transmission topologies, thus showing its applicability.

Abstract:
This article addresses computational synthesis systems that attempt to find a structural description that matches a set of initial functional requirements and design constraints with a finite sequence of production rules. It has been previously shown by the author that it is computationally difficult to identify a sequence of production rules that can lead to a satisficing design solution. As a result, computational synthesis, particularly with large volumes of selection information, requires effective design search procedures. Many computational synthesis systems utilize transformational search strategies. However, such search strategies are inefficient due to the combinatorial nature of the problem. In this article, the problem is approached using a completely different paradigm. The new approach encodes a design search problem as a Boolean (propositional) satisfiability problem, such that from every satisfying Boolean-valued truth assignment to the corresponding Boolean expression we efficiently can derive a solution to the original synthesis problem (along with its finite sequence of production rules). A major advantage of the proposed approach is the possibility of utilizing recently developed powerful randomized search algorithms for solving Boolean satisfiability problems, which considerably outperform the most widely used satisfiability algorithms. The new design-as-satisfiability technique provides a flexible framework for stating a variety of design constraints, and also represents properly the theory behind modern constraint-based design systems.

Abstract:
At the initial stage of engineering design it has to determine the set of units of design object and topological relations between them. The solution making at this stage is very efficiently because the set of operations may be carried out: adding components into the project, mating them to each other’s etc. The procedures of such kind are monotonous and time consuming. Article is dedicated to automation of topological design. However, the creation and adoption of design decisions is a difficult creative task. Currently, there are several approaches that can be applied to specific types of objects, such as injection molds, blacksmith dies, etc. Most of them are various kinds of technological equipment. There is another type of such equipment – fixtures for locating and clamping parts on the technological operations of assembly, welding, cutting, etc. Automated synthesis of fixtures is considered in this article. A method for determining the design situation is proposed. The method is based on location theory and involves the analysis of a solid model of the object being located. An example of carrier system is presented too. It is assumed that the content of the article will be useful for development of application based on CAD system. Moreover, the engineer – CAD-user himself can do this without involving a professional programmer.

Abstract:
A new knowledge-based approach for the synthesis of mechanisms, referred to as Pattern Matching Synthesis, has been developed based on a combination of committee machine and Hopfield neutral network models of pattern classification and matching applied to coupler curves. Computational tests performed on a dimensionally-parameterized four bar mechanism have yielded 15 distinct coupler curve groups (patterns) from a total of 356 generated coupler curves. This innovative approach represents a first step toward the automation of mapping structure-to-function in mechanism design based on the application of artificial intelligence programing techniques. Demonstrative examples of its application to “real-world” mechanism synthesis problems, including the design and evaluation of a two-stroke pump mechanism and the redesign of a variable-stroke engine mechanism have been included, establishing its viability for creative mechanism synthesis.

Abstract:
AbstractOne of the products of engineering, besides constructed artifacts, is design documentation. To understand how design participants use documentation, designers and typical documentation users were interviewed and protocols were taken of them both creating and using design documentation. The protocols were taken from realistic projects of preliminary design for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems (HVAC). The studies of document creation and use revealed three important issues: (1) design participants not only look up design facts; they frequently access documents to obtain information about the rationale for design decisions; (2) the design rationale that they see often is missing from the documents; and (3) design requirements change frequently over a project life cycle so that design documents are often inconsistent and out of date. Recognizing these documentation issues in design practice, a new approach was developed in which documents are no longer static records, but rather interactive design models supporting a case. The feasibility of the approach was demonstrated by constructing a running system and testing it with designers on realistic problems. The costs and benefits of creating and using documentation of design rationale also were analyzed. In particular, the active documents approach was evaluated for a routine, preliminary design in domains where community practice is widely shared and largely standardized. The approach depends on the feasibility of creating a parametric design model for the design domain.

Abstract:
This thesis presents an automated software design synthesis framework known as Project Calliope. This framework aligns with Harel's automated software development process as it addresses the aspect of automating design and implementation. Project Calliope is based on a Statecharts synthesis approach in the literature. The main goal of Project Calliope is to automatically generate testable Unified Modeling Language (UML) Statecharts that are deterministic, visually manageable and UML compliant. In order to minimise design errors in the generated UML Statecharts, Project Calliope supports model checking through Statecharts execution. In addition, executable code is automatically generated based on the synthesised UML Statecharts. This framework seeks to provide a pragmatic design framework that can be readily incorporated into software development methodologies that leverage UML. In this thesis, Project Calliope is applied to three simple applications from Whittle and Schumann's examples and a case study based on a commercial application. They are automatic teller machine, coffee dispenser, an agent application, and a groupware application respectively.

Synthetic chemistry has been the driving force behind advances in pharmaceuticals, agricultural chemicals to advanced materials; however, these fields have struggled with a slow pace of discovery, limited reproducibility, and difficulty scaling promising new molecules. Current organic chemistry labs rely on batch methodologies limiting the safe process windows, contributing to scaling difficulties, and causing reproducibility issues. Advances in laboratory automation and flow chemistry can be combined to address this bottleneck while increasing expert chemists' productivity. Automated reaction platforms, however, have been limited in their ability to access a diverse set of process units, beyond simple mixing and stirring. A system capable of carrying out multi-step syntheses, inline reaction monitoring, multi-phase reactions, and is easily reconfigurable could enable access to novel process windows and enhance laboratory productivity.
In this work, the development of a reconfigurable continuous flow chemistry platform capable of multistep syntheses is undertaken. This system is capable of interfacing with a library of process modules capable of handling solids, aggressive reagents, inline separations, and reaction conditions required for organic synthesis. These modules can be reconfigured and connected into the required sequence for target molecule synthesis. With reagents being routed to the process modules through the physical wiring of the connections to the assembled process modules eliminating complex valving manifolds. The assembly of the system is coordinated through graphical user interfaces (GUI) which executes a user generated recipe. The platform has been used to rapidly synthesize a variety of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and dyes requiring stereo-selectivity, site-selectivity, library generation, and convergent synthesis.
This integrated reconfigurable flow chemistry platform aims to decrease the time required for synthesizing new molecules while increasing synthetic repeatability and lab-to-lab transferability. Automation of synthetic chemistry can decrease the time for molecule development and allow chemists to focus on pathway refinement, reaction optimization, and process analytics. This work required the incorporation of design concepts from microfluidics, robotics, and precision machine design into an integrated modular system for continuous end-to-end production of molecules.

Abstract:
The Internet has evolved into a platform on which large numbers of individuals take action and join in collaborations via crowdsourcing, social media, and electronic commerce. When designing social and economic systems on the Internet, a key challenge is understanding how to promote particular desired behaviors and outcomes. I call this problem computational environment design. Notable abilities afforded by the Internet, such as the ability to recruit large numbers of individuals to join problem-solving efforts via crowdsourcing and social media, and the ability to engage in a data-driven iterative design process, are creating new opportunities and inspiring new methods for computational environment design. This dissertation focuses on these abilities and proposes an approach for arriving at effective designs by reasoning and learning about characteristics of participants and how these characteristics interact with a system’s design to influence behavior. The dissertation consists of two major components. The first component focuses on designing crowdsourcing and human computation systems that leverage a crowd to solve complex problems that require effective coordination among participants or the recruitment of individuals with relevant expertise. I show how reasoning about crowd abilities and limitations can lead to designs that make crowdsourcing complex tasks feasible, effective, and efficient. The solutions introduce new design patterns and methods for human computation and crowdsourcing; notable contributions include a crowdware design for tackling human computation tasks with global constraints, and incentive mechanisms for task routing that harness people’s expertise and social expertise by engaging them in both problem solving and routing. The second component focuses on understanding how to design effective environments automatically. I introduce a general active, indirect elicitation framework for automated environment design that learns relevant characteristics of participants based on observations of their behavior and optimizes designs based on learned models. Theoretical contributions include developing an active, indirect elicitation algorithm for a sequential decision-making setting that is guaranteed to discover effective designs after few interactions. Practical contributions include applications of the active, indirect elicitation framework to crowdsourcing. Specifically, I demonstrate how to automatically design tasks and synthesize workflows when optimizing for desired objectives given resource constraints.

Abstract:
Abstract We present an extensible system for synthesizing and optimizing robot configurations. The system uses a flexible representation for robot configurations based on parameterized modules; this allows us to synthesize mobile and fixed-base robots, including robots with multiple or branching manipulators and free-flying robots. Synthesis of modular robots is also possible with our representation. We use an optimization algorithm based on genetic programming. A distributed architecture is used to spread heavy computational loads across multiple workstations. We take a task-oriented approach to synthesis in which robots are evaluated on a designer-specified task in simulation; flexible planning and control algorithms are thus required so that a wide variety of robots can be evaluated. Our system’s extensibility stems from an object-oriented software architecture that allows new modules, metrics, controllers, and tasks to be easily added. We present two example synthesis tasks: synthesis of a robotic material handler, and synthesis of an antenna pointing system for a mobile robot. We analyze several key issues raised by the experiments and show several important ways in which the system can be extended and improved.

Abstract:
Abstract An automated computer-based method for deriving the shape of machine elements such as cams is described for complex mechanisms. Traditional cam synthesis concentrates on follower motion; the method described here enables complete control of the required output motion. Output motion is defined for any constant or variable camshaft velocity. The process is not limited by the degrees of freedom, follower shape, follower suspension, or complexity of the mechanism linking followers to output points. The method includes a velocity analysis to predict cam shape, pressure angle, and relative velocity of the follower with respect to the cam. This analysis allows immediate visual inspection and further dynamic and wear analyses. Cam-follower contact stress is readily calculated for an entire cycle of motion during the synthesis process. An example consisting of a five-bar linkage displaced by three cams is synthesized using the methodology. The general method described facilitates development of mechanisms previously not feasible using conventional methods. Servomotor command displacement profiles required for complex systems can also be derived using this method.

Abstract:
Abstract A new knowledge-based approach for the synthesis of mechanisms, referred to as Pattern Matching Synthesis, has been developed based on committee machine and Hopfield neural network models of pattern matching applied to coupler curves. Computational tests performed on a dimensionally parameterized four bar mechanism have yielded 15 distinct coupler curve groups (patterns) from a total of 356 generated coupler curves. This innovative approach represents a first step toward the automation of mapping structure-to-function in mechanism design based on the application of artificial intelligence programming techniques.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a general architecture for using evolutionary algorithms to achieve MEMS design synthesis. Functional MEMS devices are designed by combining parameterized basic MEMS building blocks together using Multi-objective Genetic Algorithms (MOGAs) to produce a pareto optimal set of feasible designs. The iterative design synthesis loop is implemented by combining MOGAs with the SUGAR MEMS simulation tool. Given a high-level description of the device’s desired behavior, both the topology and sizing are generated. The topology or physical configuration includes the number and types of basic building blocks and their connectivity. The sizing of the designs entails assigning numerical values to parameterized building blocks. A sample from the pareto optimal set of designs is presented for a meandering resonator example, along with convergence plots.
