PT Journal AU VACLAV, S BENOVIC, M TI SIMULATION ASSEMBLY IN TEACHING SO Journal of Technology and Information Education PY 2011 BP 17 EP 21 VL 3 IS 1 DI 10.5507/jtie.2011.003 DE simulation; assembly; simulation software; teaching AB This paper discuss about the simulation, her purpose, meaning, principles and uses in practice and teaching. The paper deals with next topics: general tasks of simulation, investigation of today's theory and practice condition, acquaint oneself with simulation's progressing, reasons for simulation's using, simulation employ to design, development, mounting and manufacturing systems for operating and uses of virtual reality in simulation. This contribution contains a focus of current simulation software used in assembly and manufacturing systems. In this focus are characterized main figures, areas of use, interface and description of general functions. ER
