'Three-dimensional shape searching: State-of-the-art review and future trends' by Iyer N., Jayanti S., Lou K., Kalyanaraman Y., Ramani K.,
Volume 37 (5) 2005, 509-530
Description
Computer-Aided Design is an established international journal that
provides engineers, designers and
computer scientists in academia and
industry with key papers on research and developments in the application
of computers to the design
process.
Computer-Aided Design invites papers reporting new research and novel or
particularly significant applications
within a wide range of topics,
including:
• CAD in conceptual design
• Design automation and optimization
•
AI in design
• Geometric methods and applied computational geometry
• Surface and solid modelling
• Parametric,
constraint-based, and feature modelling
• CAD interfaces to testing and analysis, including finite-element
methods
• Design and planning for manufacturing, including numerical control,
rapid prototyping and robotics
• Design and
planning for assembly, maintainability, recycling etc
• Engineering data management and exchange, including design databases,
component selection, product models, and life-cycle modelling
• Space and facilities planning and layout
• CAD
user interfaces, including computer graphics, virtual and augmented
reality
• Significant benchmarks, APIs, formats and
standards in CAD
Contributions are acceptable across a wide range of disciplines,
including:
• Mechanical and production
engineering
• Civil engineering, architecture and building
• Industrial and aesthetic design
Papers in areas
such as electrical and chemical engineering are also
welcome provided they have a significant geometric component, and
present
developments likely to be of interest across other areas of CAD; Computer-Aided Design does not cover topics such as logic
and process
design.
Types of Papers
Ideal research papers will report significant developments, describe the
relevant theoretical background, present a workable algorithm and give
examples taken from real applications, stressing the practicality of the
approach being presented.
Application papers will present the results of using a CAD technique in
practice, present
ground-breaking results and/or analyse the application
in a way that is likely to stimulate and influence research.
Review
papers are encouraged. They should give genuine insight into
specific areas of CAD research and development.
Letters
to the Editor are invited on topics that arise from material
published in the journal.
Books for review should be
sent to the Book Review Editor.
