Actually, research by modelling is more and more extensively used in many applications because complex devices models, composed of different elements, can be made by assembling models the solutions of which are frequently available. This behaviour presents an impressive growth and is sustained by the extraordinary developments in numerical calculations and by the implementation of commonly used computers with a high capacity and calculus rate. Nevertheless, modelling based on the equations of transport phenomena cannot be applied to every system, because they can present some limitations, which are summarized here.

An advanced approach to assembly modeling is its full integration with part modeling. Assembly modeling is done in an assembly model space where parts are modeled to define shapes and dimensions that are affected by the assembly. Additional details of the part are modeled in the part model space. Part models can be created for an assembly in accordance with their place in a predefined product assembly tree. This is the top-down approach. Existing part models can be used to create a product assembly tree. This is the bottom-up approach. Engineering practice mixes these two approaches because some parts are available at the start of the modeling of a mechanical system while other parts are to be modeled on the basis of their place in the assembly tree. Eor multiple applications of a part model, it is not duplicated but referred from the assembly model. 

When the fast development of several computer based engineering activities enforced it, the wide application of assembly modeling was started in the following areas ... 

The following applications of assembly models have primary importance. 

This chapter presents an overview of modeling by finite elements (FE) for analysis of part and assembly models. The theory and application of this method for problem solving in different areas of engineering in static and dynamical as well as linear and nonhnear tasks of deformation, temperature, vibration, frequency, shape, etc., analyses are not discussed in this text. This material concentrates on the less published topic of FE models and advanced modeling procedures, as they are available for advanced analyses in Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) systems. CAE emphasizes the analysis based development of products while CAD/CAM... 

The assembly structure must be transparent for the engineer at any time during the creation, modification, and application of an assembly model. Advanced assembly modeling supports the easy survey and tracking of the whole assembly structure during assembly modeling and later by its graphic visualization. Structure... 

Application of reference geometric entities in assembly models is illustrated in Figure 8-23. The relationship of Part 1 and Part 2 cannot be expressed using any boundary geometric elements. Axis A, an element that is not integrated in the part boundary, allows definition of a uniaxiality relationship in the model. Full placement is realized by offset relationship Oy. Part 3 is positioned along axis A on Part 1 using surface S. The same possibility is not available in the case of Part 4. Reference plane Rp should be included in the model and referred to in coincidence assembly relationship.
