Parametric Design Techniques Applied to Creative Hollow out Product Design with 3D Voronoi Patterns

The creation of hollow out art includes a variety of materials, techniques and categories, its content mostly emphasizes the ancient philosophy performance of the alternation of virtual and real, and Yin-Yang depends on the essence of Chinese culture deduction. If this feature is applied to product design, in addition to emphasizing functional orientation, this traditional arts integration with the new media, will give users a different visual inspire. This thesis is mainly in view of the importance of hollow out art in Chinese cultural heritage, and the 3D hollow out production craft has gradually lost. Therefore, the Delaunay triangle is constructed based on the Convex Hull interpolation algorithm, and the Voronoi Diagram feature is constructed based on the Divide and Conquer algorithm. And with Rhino modeling software as the main body, combined with the application of the parametric plug-in design program (GH), the 3D models of the parametric creative hollow pen holder and the parametric creative hollow lampshade were respectively completed. The traditional craftsmanship is integrated into the modern manufacturing process with innovative techniques, and the Chinese cultural spirit and beauty of nature are successfully connected.

Parametric Design Used in the Creation of 3D Models with Weaving Characteristics

The art of weaving is an ancient and beautiful technique that never fades. Various weaving techniques and various totem patterns contain rich cultural connotations. The development of cultural and creative industries often uses existing environmental materials to deconstruct and use them in innovative ways to reinspire and present another style. With the rapid progress of computer-aided design technology, digital applications in the design practice has become an important element, and parametric design is the best popular design method in recent years. This paper is mainly in view of the weaving crafts in the traditional culture of the world occupies an important role, and the precious traditional weaving crafts gradually lost. Therefore, it is planned to construct a 3D model with knitting characteristics through a parametric design method, and print out the prototype through the 3D printing mechanism, that is, the traditional craftsmanship is integrated into the modern manufacturing process with innovative techniques, to show the new style of this weaving craft culture that is different from the past, so that it not only retain its inherent spirit, but also can promote this ideal of cultural creativity.

Auspicious Patterns and 3D Models Applied in the Creation of Personalized Products

Auspicious patterns are an important manifestation of traditional crafts aesthetics for Chinese culture, and it not only exhibits the clever tricks of folk art, showing more personality and characteristics of Chinese culture in the humanities and arts aesthetic concerns. It shows the traditional aesthetics, based on the harmonious and success, constructed by intelligence and humbleness, shaped by symmetry and balance. This thesis contains two topics: they are the 2D image materialization and the 3D model flattening. First is analyzing the image of the auspicious pattern, and transformed the 2D image into a solid model. The second is through the mathematical operation skills of the geometric model, the existing auspicious 3D model of the triangular mesh is scaled, appropriately rotated and divided to form a flattening model of different visual effects. Finally, these models by means of other modeling software were combined into a new 3D model, then through the 3D printer to quickly print out part of the unique personalized products, to promote the natural beauty of traditional Chinese culture.

A Novel Training System of Lathe Works on Virtual Operating Platform

In recent years virtual reality technology has been extensively applied to the areas relating to manufacturing, such as factory layout planning, manufacturing planning, operation training, system testing, and process control, etc. Most of the studies made in the past focused on the simulation and monitoring of the entire manufacturing system, or the simulation of working schedule implementation. There was no complete research result on the most basic processing unit of manufacturing system––the operation training for the lathe works. However, these skills of operating methods are the basic skills and particularly emphasized in the practical operation during instruction. As observed from the past experience, after workers had learned the operating process of lathe works, they could achieve very good results in the written examination of the basic knowledge about the operation of different works. However, when they faced the actual operation in front of machine, they were always at a loss. The reason behind this was that when the workers had to face the possible collision and damage during actual operation of machine, since they did not have performed many times of simulated computer rehearsal designed for them to get familiar with the entire operating process, fear and nervous psychology were naturally derived from them. In view of this, the paper uses EON Studio software to integrate virtual reality technology with the application of 3D solid model to simulate a virtual operation of the various operating steps and virtual machining of lathe works during practical operation of lathe machine. The simulation enables users to learn in the simulated environment without scruple. After the accumulation of learning experience, it can be applied in the actual environment to accomplish the mission of operation.
