Ever since the plus/minus limits on dimensions first started to appear on engineering
drawings in the early 1900s, tolerances have been one of the most important issues for …

The dimensional and geometrical variations of each part of an assembly have to be limited
by tolerances able to ensure both a standardised production and a certain level of quality …

Abstract The Unified Jacobian-Torsor model is highly suitable for tolerance analysis of
complex assemblies that are constituted by a large number of rigid parts. However, partial …

This paper proposes a three-dimensional (3D) model on manufacturing tolerancing for
mechanical parts. The work presented relies on research conducted at the LURPA on the …

Additively manufactured lattice structures are widely studied in the literature for their
advantageous properties. Manufacturing steps introduce defects that are often classified …

Monte-Carlo simulation is the most popular and simplest method for nonlinear statistical
tolerance analysis. Random values for every part are got according to the part distributions …

The dimensional and geometrical variations of each part have to be limited by tolerances in
order to guarantee quality and, at the same time, a decrease of manufacturing costs …

Workpiece geometric error, locator geometric error, and clamping error are factors that
influence workpiece setup in workpiece fixturing. These errors accumulate and propagate …

This chapter focuses on five main literature models of geometric tolerance analysis–vector
loop, variational, matrix, Jacobian, and torsor–and makes a comparison between them in …

Mechanical products are usually made by assembling many parts. The dimensional and
geometrical variations of each part have to be limited by tolerances so that it can ensure …
