<p>A product design process automatically identifies potential component or component assembly failure areas during the early design stages to significantly reduce costs and design time. The subject invention automatically optimizes a dimensional scheme and mathematically identifies all significant and/or critical characteristics for the component assembly. Output equations base on the optimized dimensional scheme are generated and ranges are automatically and mathematically established for each optimized output equation. The ranges represent the upper and lower worst case limits for the output equation. The equations and ranges can then be used to re-write the output equations to solve for inputs. This reformatted data can be automatically exported into a user interface to allow a user to selectively vary inputs, outputs, or dimensions to determine the potential effects on the component assembly.</p> |
