Application of Fuzzy Logic for an Assembly Methodology

  • Conference paper
Integrated Design and Manufacturing in Mechanical Engineering

Abstract

This paper describes an application of fuzzy logic to choose an assembly process. Based on Boothroyd’s method, this application improves the reliability of decision-making and eliminates numerous repetitive calculations.
