• openAccess   A constraint redundancy elimination strategy to improve design reuse in parametric modeling 

      González-Lluch, Carmen; Plumed, Raquel; Pérez López, David; Company, Pedro; Contero, Manuel; Dorribo Camba, Jorge Elsevier (2021-08)
      Strategies for design reuse play a fundamental role in the development of products that change and evolve over time. Design changes often involve modifications in the geometry of parts and assemblies, which are driven by ...
    • openAccess   A New Approach to Detect Hand-Drawn Dashed Lines in Engineering Sketches 

      Plumed, Raquel; Contero, Manuel; Naya, Ferran; Company, Pedro MDPI (2024-05-09)
      Sketched drawings sometimes include non-solid lines drawn as sets of consecutive strokes. They represent dashed lines, which are useful for various purposes. Recognizing such dashed lines while parsing drawings is reasonably ...
    • openAccess   A survey on 3D cad model quality assurance and testing tools 

      González-Lluch, Carmen; Company, Pedro; Contero, Manuel; Dorribo Camba, Jorge; Plumed, Raquel Elsevier (2017-02)
      A new taxonomy of issues related to CAD model quality is presented, which distinguishes between explicit and procedural models. For each type of model, morphologic, syntactic, and semantic errors are characterized. The ...
    • openAccess   A voice-based annotation system for collaborative computer-aided design 

      Plumed, Raquel; González-Lluch, Carmen; Pérez López, David; Contero, Manuel; Dorribo Camba, Jorge Oxford University Press (2020-12-31)
      In this paper, we describe a voice-based interaction mechanism to annotate 3D models directly from a computer-aided design (CAD) modeling environment. The audio signal is captured and automatically transcribed to a textual ...
    • openAccess   Algorithmic Perception of Vertices in Sketched Drawings of Polyhedral Shapes 

      Company, Pedro; Plumed, Raquel; Varley, Peter; Dorribo Camba, Jorge Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) (2019-09)
      In this article, visual perception principles were used to build an artificial perception model aimed at developing an algorithm for detecting junctions in line drawings of polyhedral objects that are vectorized from ...
    • openAccess   Extracting datums to reconstruct CSG models from 2D engineering sketches of polyhedral shapes 

      Plumed, Raquel; Varley, Peter; Company, Pedro; Martin, Ralph Elsevier (2022)
      Our goal is to automatically generate CAD 3D models from 2D sketches as part of a design chain where models should be procedural, containing features arranged in a model tree and linked to suitable datums. Current procedural ...
    • closedAccess   Synchronous communication in PLM environments using annotated CAD models 

      Dorribo Camba, Jorge; Contero, Manuel; Salvador-Herranz, Gustavo; Plumed, Raquel Springer Verlag (2016-06)
      The connection of resources, data, and knowledge through communication technology plays a vital role in current collaborative design methodologies and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems, as these elements act as ...
