Abstract
Virtual environments are coming to the fore in both applied research and industrial applications, particularly due to the reduction in technological costs and the realization that this can substantially enhance the front-end design and design for
manufacture and assembly (DFMA) aspects of the product life cycle. At the core of this often neglected product development front-end is the ability to ensure that products can be effectively designed to suit manufacturing processes and planned
in ways which are more intuitive and rapid with the added bonus of capturing and formalizing engineering knowledge with a view to training and educating engineers.
