20150142149 | Method and computer-based tool for composite-structure fabrication design - A computer system and method are provided for generating a composite-structure fabrication design. During execution of the method on the computer system, a plurality of user interfaces prompt a user to enter generic design criteria as well as specific fabrication rules. Both generic design criteria and specified fabrication rules are considered simultaneously when determining candidates for fabrication designs. An optimization routine applied to the candidates yields an optimum fabrication design. | 05-21-2015 |
