Engineering organizations can realize immense benefits and savings by eliminating drawings and going right from design to manufacturing. This means capturing Product and Manufacturing Information (PMI) directly in the 3D model, like: Dimensions and linear tolerances Geometric tolerances, Datum Feature Symbol...
The Earth is shaped like a flattened sphere. This shape is called an ellipsoid. A datum is a model of the earth that is used in mapping. The datum consists of a series of numbers that define the shape and size of the ellipsoid and it's orientation in space. A datum is chosen to ...
A good model is one that has been analyzed for fit and function and manufacturability. It's not clear how those would be part of the MBD; if the part fails to fit per a variational tolerance analysis that would be significant, or if the part failed in the stress analysis to meet requ...
Lyme disease is emerging in Canada due to expansion of the range of the tick vector Ixodes scapularis from the United States. National surveillance for human Lyme disease cases began in Canada in 2009. Reported numbers of cases increased from 144 cases i
