FUZZY LOGIC BASED ALGORITHM IN CHOOSING OF THE WORK PIECES IN EARLY DESIGN STAGE
Cristian-Gheorghe TURC
Abstract: Manufacturing and product design experts consider the product early design stage as the most
important stage of the design process, because it influences all stages of the product life cycle. A lot of
recent papers were dedicated to the development of approaches regarding the decision-making in the
early design stage. The present paper deals with the problem of the work piece choosing for arbor type
pieces. The proposed algorithm is based on fuzzy logic. The main idea is to formalize the knowledge regarding
production volume, arbor shape and dimensions, piece complexity, loading, etc. using fuzzy sets
and then to take the work piece choosing decision through inference rules.
Key words: design, manufacturing, product life cycle, decision-making, fuzzy sets, fuzzy logic.
