The Concept of Digital Description of Structural Elements of Technical Systems

Abstract

The paper presents the concept of a new approach to describing the elements of technical system structures, which provides new opportunities for increasing the level of automation of this information processing. This helps to improve the conditions for the initial stages of technical systems development, which relate to the synthesis of their structures and schemes and can currently be carried out only by humans. The paper proposes a methodology for forming a digital description of the characteristics of structural elements that can be combined into a single structure of a certain technical system. This description is based on the creation of a multidimensional vector, which can be further pro- cessed using appropriate mathematical tools, and therefore provides the possi- bility of automating the processing of this information. A methodology for forming vectors of description of structural elements of technical systems is proposed in accordance with the needs of their effective use in algorithms im- plemented by computer programming. The presented approach creates prereq- uisites for automating the processes of creating structures of technical systems, classifying technical systems, efficient storage in the form of a database, effi- cient search by a large number of features, etc
