© ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved GGCM : The General Geometric Constraint Manager Brief Technical Overview

A next-generation, 2D/3D integrated, fully variational constraint manager. Input: A set of geometric objects, curves, surfaces, assembly parts, variables etc A set of complex constraints and equations Output: A solution that satisfies all constraints and equations Analysis and diagnostic output. © ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved

Technology-leading variational solving for: Assembly management Part design Robotics Curve and surface editing and optimisation Smooth kinematic motion simulation Constantly exploring many more (Operations research and optimisation, financial engineering, biochemistry, etc) © ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved

GGCM is, in its heart, a non-linear equation solver. Based on breakthrough research and technology developed in-house. Superior in: Solvability Performance Behaviour Flexible and extensible. Equipped with a simple C/C++ API for integration into any Client software system. Accompanied by a configurable Client application. © ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved

Natively supported GGCM objects: Points, lines and planes Scalar variables Fully variational B-spline curves & surfaces Fully variational conic sections (ellipse, parabola, hyperbola) Natively supported constraint types: Distance, angle (sign & supplementarity allowed) Incidence for points, lines, planes Curve-point-incidence, Curve-line-tangency Symmetries © ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved

Soft fixing makes elements heavier Discrete and continuous modes Not absolute fixing: Things will move if they need to. E.g. two options: A) Make V heavier B) Make L heavier Movement of robot will try to respect relative weight of V and L. © ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved

Failure diagnostics: Identifies the smallest part of a failing problem. Error spotted at once. Far outclasses existing offerings. © ALS Geometric Software S.A. – All rights reserved Stiffness (DoF) analysis: Returns a list of objects / assembly parts that are stiff, i.e. have no degrees of freedom left. Rigid Equivalence Classes Automatically identifies groups of objects that are forced to move rigidly, as a result of the constraints in the model.
