- Additional information
- This paper is significant because Shapespace Ltd in Edinburgh, a product data analytics company, has exploited the merits of the proposed measure in quantifying the industrial reuse for a valve company. The quantification helps the industry to identify the scope of possible potential for design reuse, which could lead to significant cost savings for using standardized features and parts.
