Wyatt, David F.; Eckert, Claudia M.; Clarkson, P. John // 2009
This paper seeks to understand how product architecture arises and influences the design process, using a case study of a UK-based diesel engine manufacturer. Product architecture is defined as a ...
Löfqvist, Lars Gunnar // 2009
This study explores the design processes in small established companies and investigates how these design processes are executed. How two different kinds of novelty influence the design processes is ...
Wynn, David C.; Clarkson, P. John // 2009
Effective management of design schedules is a major concern in industry, since timely project delivery can have a significant influence on a company's profitability. Based on insights gained ...
Thomson, Avril Isabel; Carse, Bruce; Stansfield, Ben // 2009
It is well recognised that many products do not meet the requirements of the rapidly growing older adult population. The research described in this paper aims is to provide designers with relevant ...
Ericson, Åsa; Bergström, Mattias; Larsson, Andreas; Törlind, Peter // 2009
Product development processes are commonly represented in sequential models covering the necessary stages from planning to product rollout, while processes to take needs into the development ...
Langeveld,Lau // 2009
This paper describes a design method in which assembly activities are integrated in the conceptual phase of the design process. Most products designs need to be redesigned before they can be ...
Ullman, David // 2009
As design theory matures, it is becoming more decision-centric supporting the definition of design as the evolution of information punctuated by decisions. Current methods to support design ...
Dong, Hua; Nickpour, Farnaz; McGinley, Chris // 2009
Ergonomics provides important user data for design. However, when interviewing designers about their use of data in the design process, we found that experienced designers' use of ergonomics ...
Oberoi, Sharad; Finger, Susan // 2009
Knowledge generated during the design process frequently goes uncaptured, and when it is captured, it is usually poorly organized and buried in obscure documents. Effective capture of both semantic ...
Wiktorsson, Magnus; Wikström, Anders; Jackson, Mats; Ekman, Sten // 2009
On the background of a changing industrial landscape and key elements of the realization of complex integrated products, this paper discuss and explore an "innovative" approach towards ...
Szeghö, K.; Bercsey, T.; Eigner, M. // 2009
The main objective of the research presented in the study is to accelerate the improvement of complex products. In the first step, the product life cycle is examined as a whole (taking into ...

This paper presents a roadmap to evaluate ergonomic factors of refrigerated display units integrating virtual human models with virtual prototyping techniques in order to optimize the product ...
Kaldate, Amit; Thurston, Deborah; Rood, Mark // 2009
The preliminary stages of design often focus on how to configure the artifact in such a way as to beat the existing competition in a performance attribute widely available in the marketplace. But ...
Liem, Andre // 2009
Changing technologies, attitudes and perceptions within industry and society has continuously stimulated and challenged the design profession. For some actors and organisations in the design field, ...

Over the last 10 years the Department of Design and Technology at Loughborough University has introduced over 600 design students to a suite of qualitative and quantitative sustainable design tools. ...
de Vere, Ian; Bissett-Johnson, Katherine; Thong, Christine // 2009
Engineering should serve the community in a socially responsible and sustainable manner. In order to achieve this, the engineering profession must progress from the role of technical service ...
Hepperle, Clemens; Eben, Katharina G. M.; Lindemann, Udo // 2009
This paper addresses how different aspects of integrated product development are communicated to students at the Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM). One major issue consists in teaching students ...
Eckert, Claudia; Clarkson, John; de Weck, Olivier; Keller, Rene // 2009
Engineering change is a fundamental part of all design activities at all stages of design. Most complex products are designed by modification from existing ones. Requirements change during long ...
Pahng, Gundong Francis; Wall, Matthew // 2009
With the advance of IT infrastructure and computer-based engineering solutions in manufacturing enterprises, design engineers have at their disposal numerous computer-based tools and methods that ...
Saravi, Mohammad; Newnes, Linda; Mileham, Tony; Goh, Yee-Mey // 2009
Typically 70% to 80% of a product's cost is said to have been committed by the end of the conceptual design stage [1]. Because of the importance of the conceptual stage, cost estimation should ...
Boess, Stella // 2009
How people use products can be quite different from the expectations of designers. This has been shown during the last twenty years, highlighting the need for designers to engage with product use ...
Shin, Dosun // 2009
Over the last two decades, industrial design practice has been changing due to the rapid growth of the software industry and the development of various computer-based design tools. As the scope and ...
Hoisl, Frank; Shea, Kristina // 2009
While Computer Aided Design (CAD) has made significant progress since its inception, CAD tools are still used primarily for design documentation rather than as active partners in the design process. ...
Goldschmidt, Gabriela; Litan Sever, Anat // 2009
A design is said to be as successful as the leading idea that drives it is. Mature designers make frequent use of 'stock ideas' accumulated over time and stored in memory and personal ...
