Summary:An adaptive synthesis method for hydraulic circuits is proposed using a case-based reasoning technique based on their functional structure. In the first report, we proposed the adaptive synthesis method itself and the strategies used in it. In this report, we present a verification method of the circuits generated by the adaptive synthesis method, computer implementation using an objectoriented programming language, and graphical interface drawing of schematic structures of circuits. Since design verification in the conceptual steps of the design process cannot utilize specified attributes of system elements of designs, we verify the structures of circuits and kinds of components through a symbol-based constraint propagation mechanism. These synthesis and simulation methods are applied to some design problems in order to show their effectiveness and validity.
