Abstract
In assembly modelling, it is necessary to capture the relative positions of components in the assembly. Many such problems concern constraint representation and its manipulation such as constraint reduction. This paper formulates the constraints as groups of rigid body transformations and proposes a constraint reduction procedure, based on Lie algebra. Then, this approach is applied to the constraint representation and reduction in an assembly model.
