Understanding Context In Designing - Dindayal, Shahare Mahendra
Everything around us that is not a simple untouched piece of nature has been designed by someone. Human society has found a great refuge in these designed objects or the artefacts, and thus has adapted vociferously to their inclusion into everyday life. From the early conception as art and then lately as scientific activity, now during the last few decades, designing has been understood as a fundamental aspect of human life. This understanding has become a motivating force in the last four decades for design research community. Remarkable theories, methods, models and approaches for designing have been propounded during this...

Advanced Methodologies For Designing Metallic Armour Plates For Ballistic Impact - Raguraman, M
A Primary objective of the present research is the development of robust CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering)-based approaches for designing armour plates subjected to ballistic impact by small-calibre hardened peojectiles with or without a protective sheath. Amongst the challenges in simulation is the capturing of target plate material behaviour at high strain rates with possibilities of adiabatic heating. A comprehensive numerical study carried out has resulted in the identification of simulation guidelines using a commercially available explicit finite element anlaysis solver (viz. LS_DYNA). The interferences thus drawn in terms of modeling approach 9I.e. shell, solid or axisymmetric or a mixed representation). Mesh...

Computerized Landmarking And Anthropometry Over Laser Scanned 3D Head And Face Surface Meshes - Deo, Dhanannjay
Understanding of the shape and size of different features of human body from the scanned data is necessary for automated design and evaluation of product ergonomics. The traditional method of ?nding required body dimensions by manual measurements (Anthropometry) has many sociological, logistical and technical drawbacks such as prolonged time, skilled researcher for consistency and accuracy of measurements, undesirable physical contact between the subject and the researcher, required presence of people from different demographic categories or travel of researcher with equipments. If these di-
mensions are extracted from the stored digital human models, above drawbacks can be
eliminated.
With the emergence of laser based...
