摘要:
One aspect is a method which determines a float remaining figure (for example, a float remaining circle) for a manufactured pattern of features. In some embodiments, the size and relative location of two or more float remaining figures, each for a different part (each part typically designed in accordance with a different pattern of features), are compared and optionally also transformed to provide a quantifiable measure of whether the two parts fit (or can be modified to fit) and if so how well the parts fit. Other aspects are systems programmed to perform any embodiment of the method, and computer readable media which store code for implementing any embodiment of the method.

One aspect is a method for evaluating feature relating tolerance compliance for an individual feature of a pattern of features, for example using a pattern construct indicative of consumed tolerance of the pattern, or a pattern construct including a maximum inscribed circle inscribed within (or a minimum circumscribing circle which circumscribes) feature figures indicative of the features. Other aspects are computer-readable media (e.g., compact disks or tapes) that store code for programming a processor to implement any embodiment of the inventive method, and computer systems programmed to perform any embodiment of the inventive method.
摘要:
Certain embodiments of the disclosure provide one or more methods and/or systems to provide for determination of valid fastener zones that meet certain design rules. A method may include selecting at least one fastener having a preselected size and providing a first structural member and second structural member each having preselected sizes and shapes. The method may include determining a first fastener placement zone in the first structural member and determining a second fastener placement zone in the second structural member, where the respective first and second fastener placement zones are determined as a function of the structural design rules. The method may include determining a final fastener zone by identifying an overlap of the first and second fastener zones.

摘要:
A machine readable medium and a method are disclosed that determine whether a pattern of manufactured or simulated features violates a feature relating tolerance and determines acceptability of the pattern. Allowable tolerance may include feature relating tolerances and material conditions. Manufactured centers are drawn relative to a one true position. A circle drawn through or outside the manufactured centers is used to determine if there is feature relating tolerance violation. Material condition may also be used.
