title = "Optimum fixture design",
abstract = "A systematic approach to optimally configure the layout of machining fixtures for prismatic parts is presented. The design optimization model is well-defined from machining precision considerations and feasible for three-dimensional applications. The finite element method (FEM) is incorporated in the optimum design scheme to model the fixture-workpiece system and to calculate the workpiece deflections. A simple but effective optimization technique (the ellipsoid method) is employed to solve this design problem.",
