Study on Product Lifecycle Dynamic Information Modeling and Its Application

The PLDIM (Product Lifecycle Dynamic Information Model) is the most important part of the PLDM (Product Lifecycle Dynamic Model ) and it is the basis to create the information system and to implement PLM (Product Lifecycle Management). The information classification, the relationships among all information items, PLDIM mathematic expression, information coding and the 3D synthetic description of the PLDIM are presented. The information flow and information system structure based on the two information centers and Internet/Intranet are proposed, and how to implement this system for ship diesel engines are also introduced according to the PLDIM and PLM solutions.
