A Web-Based Interface for Complex Design Using a Virtual Engineering Software Framework

摘要

VE-Suite is a powerful software framework that allows many complex engineering tasks to be designed, analyzed, and optimized within a comprehensive virtual environment. VESuite is designed to enable the collaboration of engineers across distance and platforms, ranging from immersive Virtual Reality systems to common desktop computers. The purpose of this paper is to describe the development of a web-based interface for VE-Suite. Specific areas covered include the program’s facilities for data storage and retrieval, collaboration methods, and integration with the entire VE-Suite framework. The interface development is presented along with a test case shown within the software framework.
