... and thus facilitating detailed studies of larger assembly structures. sheet metal geometric modeling analysis nonrigid variation simulation tolerances The complex manufacturing processes used in car production today are inflicted by geometrical variation. This variation is mainly a result...

... that the presented technique can be used to create continuous and correlated datasets. Non-rigid part behavior can be included in early PQ evaluations, even if the final detailed engineering design models do not yet exist. perceived quality geometry assurance non-rigid sheet metal assembly simulation...
