Abstract

This research proposes a framework for representing and managing the knowledge involved in engineering analysis modeling for design verification, and discusses formalization and building of knowledge management system. The computation-based design consists of the two phases, engineering analysis for understanding physical phenomena and design verification based on its results. The management format of the engineering analysis modeling process, which is named EAMM (Engineering Analysis Modeling Matrix), is introduced for the first phase. The process structure of design verification and classification of designer's decision making are discussed for the second phase by referring the framework of EAMM. gIBIS (graphical Issue-Based Information System) model, which is a hypertext graph model, is adopted for representing the process structure and the designer's decision makings with multimedia information. This paper also defines an ontology of the engineering analysis modeling knowledge, which is the fundamental of the implementation of the knowledge management framework. A design process of a micro mixing mechanism demonstrates the potential and the promise of a proposed framework.
