Book excerpt: This thesis documents the development of a heuristics-based decision-making tool to guide a designer’s choice between virtual or physical prototypes, based in part upon published prototyping strategies, as well as the design, implementation, and results of a pilot experimental study used to test this virtual-vs-physical decision-making tool for prototypes. Eighty undergraduate mechanical engineering students volunteered for a pilot experiment to test the decision-making tool. They were given the choice of physically or virtually prototyping a four-bar linkage. Forty participants in this pilot study were instructed to use a Likert-scale instrument to choose their prototyping technique, and an additional 40 participants, who did not use the instrument, served as a control group for evaluating the effectiveness of the instrument. Analysis of participants’ performance metrics undeniably shows that virtual prototyping is the optimal technique for this design problem, as virtual prototypers on average across both test groups achieved performance metrics almost five times higher in about half the time compared to physical prototypers. With the aid of a heuristics-based decision-making tool, 10% more participants in the experimental group picked the best technique versus those who did not use the tool in the control group (32 of 40, and 28 of 40, respectively). The prototyping choices of participants among each test group were analyzed using the comparison of two population proportions, and results from a two-tailed z-test yielded p = 0.303, thus the null hypothesis cannot be rejected with statistical significance for the test of two population proportions. Although the difference in choice of the optimal prototyping technique between test groups of this pilot study is not statistically significant, it serves as a preliminary model for a systematic approach that incorporates consideration of type of prototype as a strategic decision. Although the findings of this four-bar linkage study cannot be extrapolated to a generic prototyping process, this work provides a paradigm for thinking critically about virtual vs. physical prototyping decisions using a heuristics-based, structured prototyping strategy. The pilot results provide a template and motivation for conducting a larger scale experiment for generic prototyping applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent rise of "smart" products has been made possible through tight co-design of hardware and software. The growing amount of software and hence processors in applications all around us allows for increased flexibility in the application functionality through its life cycle. Not so long ago a device felt outdated after you owned it for a couple of months. Today, a continuous stream of new software applications and updates make products feel truly "smart". The result is an almost magical user experience where the same product can do more today than it could do yesterday.

In this book we dive deep into a key methodology to enable concurrent hardware/software development by decoupling the dependency of the software development from hardware availability: virtual prototyping. The ability to start software development much earlier in the design cycle drives a true "shift-left" of the entire product development schedule and results in better products that are available earlier in the market.

Throughout the book, case studies illustrate how virtual prototypes are being deployed by major companies around the world. If you are interested in a quick feel for what virtual prototyping has to offer for practical deployment, we recommend picking a few case studies to read, before diving into the details of the methodology.

Of course, this book can only offer a small snapshot of virtual prototype use cases for faster software development. However, as most software bring-up, debug and test principles are similar across markets and applications, it is not hard to realize why virtual prototypes are being leveraged whenever software is an intrinsic part of the product functionality, after reading this book.

Book excerpt: Develop, Deploy, and Sustain High-Performance Virtual Prototyping for Advanced R&D Organizations must reduce time-to-market, costs, and risks while producing higher-quality products that grow ever more complex. In response, many are turning to advanced software for rapidly creating and analyzing virtual prototypes, and accurately predicting the performance and behavior of the systems they represent. This requires a deep understanding of physics-based digital engineering and high-performance computing, as well as unique organizational and management skills. Now, Douglass Post and Richard Kendall bring together knowledge that engineers, scientists, developers, and managers will need to build, deploy, and sustain these specialized applications—including information previously available only in proprietary environments. Post and Kendall illuminate key issues with a detailed book-length case study based on their work at the U.S. DoD's pioneering Computational Research and Engineering Acquisition Tools and Environments (CREATE) program, which developed eleven of the field's most advanced software tools. You'll find a detailed roadmap for planning, organizing, managing, and navigating complex organizations to successful delivery; as well as detailed descriptions of each step in the process, with clear rationales and concrete examples. The authors share detailed references, a convenient glossary and bibliography, sidebars on overcoming real-world challenges, and more. The book reviews the essentials of computational engineering and science and the pivotal role of virtual prototyping. It helps readers to: Plan and manage the paradigm shift from physical to virtual prototyping Establish, execute, and evolve Agile processes for developing virtual prototyping software Understand and implement virtual prototyping tools and workflows Verify and validate prototyping systems to ensure accuracy and utility Recruit and retain a specialized workforce, and train and support users Explore additional emerging roles for virtual prototyping

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description: This research was concerned with the integration of physical and virtual prototyping to support user evaluation in the product design process. The research background, research aim and research objectives which give the overall guide to this research are introduced first. The top-level aim of the research was to explore the ways that physical and virtual prototypes can be simultaneously combined to support industrial designers in testing and modifying their designs. A comprehensive literature review was undertaken into the topics of product design and development, the role of physical and virtual prototype/prototyping and related prototyping integration technologies. A questionnaire survey regarding the applications of prototypes is then presented. The knowledge gained from these was used to define the needs of real time integration of physical and virtual prototyping. A method to quickly transfer the changes in a physical prototype to a virtual prototype has been proposed and developed into an integration system known as the Loughborough University Prototyping Integration System (LUPIS). The feasibility and potential benefits of this system were tested through several user trials. The generic implementation of LUPIS is then discussed and an example of the configuration of this system for a motorcycle is presented. Finally, conclusions about the outcome of the research and suggestions for future work are provided. The main conclusions drawn from the research were: Real time integration of physical and virtual prototypes/prototyping is an efficient way of helping product design activities, especially in the product evaluation process. LUPIS has presented a new approach to achieve the real time integration. However, more advanced technologies are needed to develop this system and make it more sophisticated. The main contributions of this research include: i) a deeper understanding of the applications of physical and virtual prototyping (obtained through literature review and questionnaire survey), ii) the needs of real time integration of physical and virtual prototyping has been defined; iii) a wide range of technologies related to prototyping integration have been investigated and analysed, and their limitations are identified; iv) The Loughborough University Prototyping Integration System has been developed and a generic implementation method has been also proposed.

Abstract: Abstract of the thesis entitled An integrated system for virtual simulation and visualization of rapid prototyping submitted by CHAN Mei Mei For the degree of Master of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong This project proposes a Virtual Prototyping (VP) system that integrates Virtual Reality (VR) with Rapid Prototyping (RP) to create virtual or digital prototypes to facilitate product development. The proposed VP system makes use of two new simulation methodologies, namely the dexel-based and the layer-based fabrication approaches, to simulate the powder-based and the laminated sheet-based RP processes, respectively. The dexel-based approach deposits arrays of solid strips to form a layer, while the layer-based approach directly forms a complete layer by extruding the slice contours. The layer is subsequently stacked up to fabricate a virtual prototype. The simulation approaches resemble the physical fabrication processes of most RP systems, and are therefore capable of accurately representing the geometrical characteristics of prototypes. In addition to numerical quantification of the simulation results, the system also provides stereoscopic visualization of the product design and its prototype for detailed analyses. Indeed, the original product design may be superimposed on its virtual prototype, so that areas with dimensional errors beyond i design limits may be clearly highlighted to facilitate point-to-point analysis of the surface texture and the dimensional accuracy of the prototype. Hence, the key control parameters of an RP process, such as part orientation, layer thickness and hatch spacing, may be effectively tuned up for optimal fabrication of physical prototypes in subsequent product development. Furthermore, the virtual prototypes can be transmitted via the Internet to customers to facilitate global manufacturing. As a result, both the lead-time and product development cost can be significantly reduced. ii DOI: 10.5353/th_b3050213 Subjects: Prototypes, Engineering Virtual reality
