Abstract
This paper introduces an online collaborative design platform to support mechatronic design. SysML-based system modeling method is employed to support system level design. Based on the system model, domain-specific model generation method is provided to facilitate the designers to enable the next design phase. The proposed unified recognition algorithm for changed model and dynamic model integration method enable efficient data flow to characterize the design intents in collaborative design activities. This platform is implemented on existing commercial tools to promote the practicability. Finally, a simple work piece conveyor system is taken as the case study for demonstration.
