Synopses & Reviews
The Process Grammar has been applied by scientists and engineers in many disciplines such as medical diagnosis, geology, and computer-aided design. In this book Dr. Leyton examines Process Grammar as a component of the New Foundations to Geometry. Dr. Leyton begins the book with an introduction and background into Process Grammar. The book then examines the applications of Process Grammar as it relates to and is used in various disciplines such as biological anatomy, neuroscience, as well as chemical engineering. The author then covers how process grammar is used in unification of biological morphology and vehicle design. The book then describes the Generative Theory of Shape which give the ability to recover the design intents for which the shape features of a CAD model were created.
Synopsis
