Semenski, D.; Baki?, A.; Drvar, N.; Marinov, A. // 2004
A new process of cutting tool design by using 3D scanning-aided technology has been invented by using rapid prototyping principles. The main demands of designing process is getting the precise ...
A NEW ADAPTABLE RAPID PROTOTYPING & MANUFACTURING APPROACH FOR PRODUCING A VARIETY OF FOAM-BASED PRODUCT SOLUTIONS
Aitchison, David R.; Sulaiman, Riza // 2004
Rapidly changing consumer and engineering product market trends have dictated the need for manufacturers to produce goods that can either be readily configured to the shilling market and/or be ...
A NEW APPROACH FOR GESTURE-BASED SKETCHING
Diehl, H.; Lindemann, U.; Müller, F.; Schneider, S. // 2004
Tools for engineering design like CAD don´t support creativity in the early design phases. Instead, paper based sketches are still the conceptual designer’s first choice for fixing his ideas. ...
A NEW CONCEPT OF SUPPORTING COMPLEX MODEL BUILDING IN VAGUE DISCRETE INTERVAL MODELLING
Rusák, Z.; Horváth, I. // 2004
To support shape conceptualization vague discrete interval modelling is proposed. Dedicated operators (i.e. positioning and constrained instantiation operators) are being developed to assist the ...

Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
