Four students were tasked with designing a concept for a fluid delivery system for a 3D (three dimensional) printer. The design was in their conceptual design stages. The team designed the lip of the cartridge in the printer, means to seal the tube between the cartridge and the tank, the size and volume of the tank, the way to replace the tank, and the layout of the printer.
Wenjuan Wang and Alex Duffy • 2006
A supervised project, Roadside Furniture, was conducted in which a modular system of a roadside barrier, with easy replacement, was designed for different society environments. A concept of “locktab mechanism” was developed for the system, in which a circular cross section post could be received into a sustainable ground fixing system and secured with a key. The transcript covers three design phases: task analysis, conceptual design and embodiment design. The transcripts are of ten sessions resulting in over 280 minutes of recordings (available on request).
