Abstract

The paper presents the system for knowledge acquisition and its management in designing process. The main aim of the system is to aid designing process by means of generative models creation, which constitute a kind of knowledge-based engineering application. The system uses ontology which has been worked out especially for that purpose. The system has been verified while creating generative models using CATIA system in designing subassemblies of drive system of a car as well as some objects using fast assembly systems.
