Geometric modeling laboratory as an engineering infrastructure in the digital economy
Abstract
The paper is devoted to the questions of creating a geometric modeling laboratory, which can decide many project problems as engineering infrastructure. Actuality of this problem for Uzbekistan is justified by statistical data about using research and development works in national economy. Geometric modeling methods are considering as one of main process of research and development which have significance in formation of living environment. The problem is solved by a systematic analysis of the capabilities of geometric modeling methods and systems. Based on the analysis, the role of geometric modeling laboratory in the product lifecycle management is determined on example of Agriculture Engineering. Offering by author geometric modeling laboratory activity is considering as new – "Conceptual Design" stage of product lifecycle. The structure of the geometric modeling laboratory is proposed by working-out its framework. The system framework levels and connections are considered in viewpoint of National Innovation System, where offered laboratory joint educational, research and design organizations. The main tasks of this laboratory are highlighted based on system "Education – Science - Career". The proposed project is a necessary engineering infrastructure in conditions of digital economy that allows to activate the implementation of innovative projects in the cooperation of education, science and production.
