... is checked by solving a variety of available test problems and comparing them with those found in the literature. Furthermore by solving complex problems the robustness and effectiveness of the method is tested. Computational Design Synthesis Design Automation Graph Grammar Computational Fluid...

... Ever since computers have been used to support human designers, a variety of representations have been used to encapsulate engineering knowledge. Computational design synthesis approaches utilize this knowledge to generate design candidates for a specified task. However, new approaches...

The presented method is tar- geted at making the physical effects contained in design cata- logues available for computational design synthesis approaches. For this purpose, this paper introduces the notion of abstrac- tion ports that is used...
