Abstract:
1. A computer readable, non-transitory medium having stored therein a harness design support program causing a computer to execute a process comprising: setting, on a three-dimensional model, harness information including a pass position of a harness; determining whether the harness whose position is decided so as to pass through the set pass position interferes with a mechanical part that is read from a storing unit that stores therein three-dimensional model data on the mechanical part through which the harness passes; approximating, when it is determined that the harness interferes with the mechanical part, the mechanical part that interferes with the harness to a three-dimensional convex hull; selecting from among a plurality of surfaces of the approximated three-dimensional convex hull, a surface that has not been selected and setting a pass position of the harness outside the selected surface; deciding a position of the harness that passes through the set pass position; and repeating the process performed at the determining, the approximating, the selecting, and the deciding until it is determined, at the determining, that the harness does not interfere with the mechanical part.
