基于知识的可扩展飞机概念设计环境原型研究(英文)

由于飞机概念设计阶段所涉及任务的高度复杂性和多学科集成性,知识和经验成为设计师开展设计任务的基础。即使针对同一个设计任务,不同的设计师仍需要适合他们自己的设计知识、方法和工具来满足其个体要求。针对以上需求本文提出了一种基于知识的可扩展的构建飞机概念设计系统的方法。基于这种方法建立了具有开放式框架基于知识的飞机概念设计环境KEACDE。设计师应用此环境可以封装集成所需的设计分析组件并构建针对不同需求的飞机概念设计系统。定义了KEACDE的系统框架,知识组件封装方法和可扩展基础数据库建立方法。应用KEACDE实现了一个民用飞机概念设计系统的构建。最后给出了民用飞机设计实例以说明系统的可行性。

A Knowledge-based and Extensible Aircraft Conceptual Design Environment

Design knowledge and experience are the bases to carry out aircraft conceptual design tasks due to the high complexity and integration of the tasks during this phase. When carrying out the same task, different designers may need individual strategies to fulfill their own demands. A knowledge-based and extensible method in building aircraft conceptual design systems is studied considering the above requirements. Based on the theory, a knowledge-based aircraft conceptual design environment, called knowledge-based and extensible aircraft conceptual design environment (KEACDE) with open architecture, is built as to enable designers to wrap add-on extensions and make their own aircraft conceptual design systems. The architecture, characteristics and other design and development aspects of KEACDE are discussed. A civil airplane conceptual design system (CACDS) is achieved using KEACDE. Finally, a civil airplane design case is presented to demonstrate the usability and effectiveness of this environment.
