Abstract
A knowledge-based system approach to a design knowledge capture (DKC) problem is presented. Such a system would capture not only the traditional definitive knowledge which describes a design, but also the explanatory knowledge which explains how the design decisions were made. Typical design processes were examined to determine what knowledge to retain and at what stage that knowledge is used. An outline of a DKC system was implemented using the Forms frame system. Although the problem of determining an optimum knowledge decomposition scheme is complex, a particular knowledge decomposition scheme useful to the design of magnetic bearing-based systems was imposed. It was determined that a DKC system is an extremely valuable engineering tool for complicated systems and systems with long service life.
