Abstract
Designontology plays an important role in modern multi-party collaborations andknowledge-intensive designs. In this paper, a product design ontology system isproposed by analyzing and deconstructing the design function–behavior–structure(FBS) model and geometry application programming interfaces (APIs). GeometryAPIs and surface behavior are considered minimum structure units and concretefunction realization, respectively. APIs and their surface behavior are definedto build the semantic connection among functions, behavior, and structures andrefine further the ontology of FBS design. According to some inference rules, designontology can be used to obtain automatically or semi-automatically thepreliminary product function and structure. The studied cases prove that therepresentation of the design knowledge based on the FBS-API ontology overcomesthe limit of mere word conventions and is more conducive to the quantizationand derivation of product design.
