  abstract  = {This is a paper about knowledge in design and how to elicit knowledge from design processes. The paper is a preparation for an empirical study of interaction in the design process. Reasonings of three authors - Sch{\"o}n, Broadbent and Lundequist - on design processes is presented. They all have a pragmatic perspective in common, and regard the process as an activity without a definite form. Design is seen as an activity of creating models of forms and shapes, by addressing expert knowledge ­ in a dialogic way ­ to problematic situations. Due to the pragmatic approach I find the pragmatist Dewey´s understanding of knowledge and elecitation of knowledge appropiate for studying design processes. According to him it is possible to build up objectified descriptions of experiences, also of such, which are based on experiences of emotional and intuitive nature. There need not be a definite border, which separates tacit knowledge from explicit knowledge - when it comes to the question of the possibility of verbal descriptions. Tacit knowledge is possible to articulate within pragmatic thinking. The conclusion is, that it is possible to study the tacit knowledge of design processes, and get some qualitative insights useful for theory building. A study of design processes can look at three different forms of knowledge. It appears as a pre­cognitive understanding of the design situation, as integrated in the design activity - seeing the situation as something known - and in the process of creating something new.},

Weak compessible of elasters is taken into account on the basis of threefold approximation of fields of displacements, deformations and function of volume change. At intensive cyclic loading of the elastomer constructions with a crack it is necessary to take into account warming and large deformations at the crack top. The stress-deformed state elasters with a crack is determined from the decision of a nonlinear problem by a modified method Newton-Kantorovich. Account stress intensity factors for a rectangular plate with a various arrangement of a through crack is executed. Process of development of a surface crack and dissipative warming in prismatic a element of shift is investigated.},

  abstract  = {This paper is devoted to discrete-continual finite element method (DCFEM) of analysis for three-dimensional curvilinear structures. Operational and variational formulations of the problem in the ring coordinate system are presented. The discrete-continual design model for structures with constant physical and geometrical parameters in longitudinal direction is offered on the basis of so-called curvilinear discrete-continual finite elements. Element coordinate system, approximation of nodal unknowns, construction of element nodal load vector are under consideration. Element system of differential equations is formulated with use of special generalized block-structured stiffness matrix of discrete-continual finite element. Local differential relations are formulated. Resultant multipoint boundary problem for system of ordinary differential equations is given. Method of analytical solution of multipoint boundary problems in structural analysis is offered as well. Its major peculiarities include universality, computer-oriented algorithm involving theory of distributions, computational stability, optimal conditionality of resultant systems, partial Jordan decomposition of matrix of coefficients, eliminating necessity of calculation of root vectors. Brief information concerning developed software is provided.},

One of problems to be solved in this context is the multiplicity of data formats : inputs come from different sources, and outputs are for heterogeneous systems of visualization. Typically CSG and boundary representation must be generated, treated and converted during building of models. Furthermore, the generated models can be more or less refined, depending on requests and type of use.

  abstract  = {Die Technische Gediminas Universit{\"a}t Vilnius, Lehrstuhl Technologie der Bauproduktion und die Hochschule f{\"u}r Technik, Wirtschaft und Kultur Leipzig, Lehrbereich Baubetrieb, haben sich seit mehreren Jahren mit den Problemen der mehrkriteriellen Entscheidung im Bauwesen befasst. Auf Grund der unterschiedlichen Herangehensweise werden f{\"u}r numerische L{\"o}sungen auch unterschiedliche Methoden benutzt. Das gemeinsame Ziel war immer eine optimale Variantenauswahl f{\"u}r baubetriebliche Produktionsprozesse. Zur Unterst{\"u}tzung der numerischen L{\"o}sungen wurde gemeinsam das EDV-Programm LEVI entwickelt, welches heute wahlweise als deutschsprachige oder englischsprachige Version genutzt werden kann. Die Beschreibung der zu l{\"o}senden Probleme erfolgt in Form einer Matrix. Diese enth{\"a}lt die Varianten (Zeilen) und die Kriterien (Spalten). Dabei sind die Varianten Ausdruck einer Menge real existierender Situationen f{\"u}r ein Problem. Alle betrachteten Varianten werden durch die gleichen Kriterien bewertet. Da die Kriterien gew{\"o}hnlich unterschiedliche Dimensionen besitzen, ist ihre Wirksamkeit nicht direkt miteinander vergleichbar. Eine Ausnahme bildet die Bewertung mit einem Punktsystem. Diese beinhaltet jedoch in hohem Maße subjektive Einfl{\"u}sse und sollte daher nur in Ausnahmef{\"a}llen benutzt werden. Um die Schwierigkeiten der unterschiedlichen Dimensionen f{\"u}r die verschiedenen Kriterien zu umgehen, wird das Verh{\"a}ltnis zum jeweiligen Optimalwert gebildet. Damit werden gleichzeitig die Diskrepanzen, die durch die unterschiedlichen Gr{\"o}ßenordnungen der Optimalwerte entstehen, beseitigt. F{\"u}r das Verh{\"a}ltnis des Funktionswertes zum Optimalwert existieren unterschiedliche Auffassungen. Es muss an dieser Stelle bemerkt werden, dass mit der Entscheidung {\"u}ber die Art des Verh{\"a}ltnisses zum Optimalwert auch die L{\"o}sung beeinflusst werden kann. Untersuchungen {\"u}ber solche Auswirkungen sind noch nicht abgeschlossen, so dass im Augenblick nur vorl{\"a}ufige Ergebnisse genannt werden k{\"o}nnen. Von den bekannten Transformationsmethoden benutzen die Verfasser die vektorwertige Transformation, die lineare Transformation, die relative Abweichung und eine nichtlineare Transformation. Dadurch erfolgt eine Abbildung auf das Intervall [1 ; 0 ] bzw. [ 1 ; ~ 0 ]. F{\"u}r die L{\"o}sungsmethoden erfolgt eine Unterscheidung in eine einseitige oder zweiseitige Fragestellungen. W{\"a}hrend die einseitige Fragestellung auf die Bestimmung einer Rangfolge orientiert, berechnet die zweiseitige Fragestellung ein spieltheoretisches Gleichgewicht als Ausdruck eines rationalen Verhaltens von zwei entgegengesetzten Interessengruppen und L{\"o}sungen f{\"u}r Spiele gegen die Natur. In Anlehnung an das statische Gleichgewicht messen die Verfasser dem spieltheoretischen Gleichgewicht f{\"u}r die Dimensionierung baubetrieblicher Produktionsprozesse eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Bisherige Anwendungen konzentrieren sich auf die optimale Auswahl im Wohnungsbau, die Auswahl von Konstruktionsvarianten, die Auswahl von Montagevarianten, den Einsatz von W{\"a}rmed{\"a}mmstoffen u.a. F{\"u}r die Dimensionierung von Produktionsprozessen mit Serienproduktion wurde eine L{\"o}sung mit einer gewichteten Matrix vorgeschlagen.},

  abstract  = {The design of building projects involves several types of resources such as architects, structural engineers, mechanical engineers, electrical engineers, and draftsmen, among others. For design firms to stay in business in this very competitive market, they need to manage their resources in a way that improves productivity and cost effectiveness. This task, however, is not simple and requires thorough analysis of process-level operations, resource use, and productivity. Typically, these operational aspects are the responsibility of the design office manager who assigns available resources to the different design projects to save time and lower design expenses. It is noted that limited studies have been carried out in the literature to model overall organizational operations and behavioral aspects, particularly in firms specialized in the design of building projects. In an effort to simplify the modeling process, a simplified modeling and simulation tool is used in this research. A simulation model representing an actual design office was developed assuming that the office performs designs for small, medium, and large size building projects. The developed model was used to simulate several alternatives and examine various resource assignment strategies. The simulation was conducted over ten years and the resulting productivity and income was measured.},

  abstract  = {Information science researchers and developers have spent many years addressing the problem of retrieving the exact information needed and using it for analysis purposes. In informationseeking dialogues, the user, i.e. construction project manager or supplier, often asks questions about specific aspects of the tasks they want to perform. But most of the time it is difficult for the software systems to unambiguously understand their overall intentions. The existence of information tunnels (Tannenbaum 2002) aggravates this phenomenon. This study includes a detailed case study of the material management process in the construction industry. Based on this case study, the structure of a formal user model for information retrieval in construction management is proposed. This prototype user model will be incorporated into the system design for construction information management and retrieval. This information retrieval system is a user-centered product based on the development of a user configurable visitor mechanism for managing and retrieving project information without worrying too much about the underlying data structure of the database system. An executable UML model combined with OODB is used to reduce the ambiguity in the user's intentions and to achieve user satisfaction.},

  abstract  = {Projektsteuerung gewinnt als Aufgabenfeld bei der Realisierung von Investitionsprojekten st{\"a}ndig an Bedeutung. Zur Bew{\"a}ltigung der umfangreichen und komplizierten Aufgaben des Projektsteuerers wird zunehmend Software angeboten und genutzt. Dabei ist feststellbar, daß von einer integrierten Projektsteuerung unter Ber{\"u}cksichtigung der Kriterien Leistung, Termin und Kosten nicht gesprochen werden kann, weil wesentliche theoretische und praktische Voraussetzungen fehlen. Im Beitrag werden Defizite der praktizierten Vorgehensweise und L{\"o}sungsans{\"a}tze f{\"u}r eine integrierte rechnergest{\"u}tzte Projektsteuerung vorgestellt. Durch geeignete Formen der Projektstrukturierung und eine Kopplung auf dem Mark befindlicher Standardsoftware k{\"o}nnen geeignete L{\"o}sungen gefunden werden. Problempunkte dabei stellen die Schnittstellen zwischen den Anwenderprogrammen die Datenbeschaffung und -verwaltung sowie geeignete Verfahren zur Kostenermittlung und -verfolgung dar. Im Beitrag werden eine bereits praktizierte und eine in Entwicklung befindliche L{\"o}sung vorgestellt.},
