TRANSLATION BETWEEN LINGUISTIC STRUCTURES AND SHAPE STRUCTURES FOR BIDIRECTIONAL DESIGN

Miura, S.; Utiyama, M.; Takeuchi, K.; Isahara, H.; Nagai, Y.; Taura, T. // 2006
In upstream design, designers generate new images. This process is important in forming the whole design object. In this process they use verbal image and nonverbal image in their mind. We hope to ...

TWO ASPECTS OF HUMAN-CENTRIC EVOLUTIONARY DESIGN SYSTEMS

Parmee, L. C.; Abraham, J. A.; Machwe, A. // 2006

UNDERSTANDING AND DEVELOPING INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES: THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS

Tan, A.R.; McAloone, T.C. // 2006
Innovation is synonymous with successful development and implementation, and therefore peculiar to innovation is that it has to prove itself on the market before we can deem it innovative. This paper ...

USE OF KNOWLEDGE TWISTING FOR SYNTHESIS OF ALTERNATIVE ELEMENTARY SOLUTIONS

Žavbi, R.; Duhovnik, J. // 2006
There is a positive correlation between the number of generated alternative product concepts and their quality, so it makes sense to seek formal methods that will enable the generation of alternative ...

USING MULTIPLE DESIGN STRUCTURE MATRICES

Eichinger, M.; Maurer, M.; Lindemann, U. // 2006
In product development, multiple aspects of engineering design methodology interact with each other. In this paper, we present an approach that integrates these aspects (product design domains) into ...

USING PRODUCT & PROCESS DESIGN TOOLS TO IMPROVE SERVICES

Hollins, W.J. // 2006
As employment in the service sector in industrialised countries now exceeds that in manufacturing, engineering designers must turn to the service sector and by doing so, will find many of their ...

USING SIMILARITY RATIOS FOR FINDING, EVALUATING AND OPTIMIZING PRINCIPLE SOLUTIONS

Deimel, M.; Franke, H.-J. // 2006
The paper shows that similarity ratios support holistically the methodical synthesis of solutions. Partial solutions can be described and selected on the basis of dimensionless characteristics. The ...

Virtual Product Design Studio

James, Arnold // 2006

Vision Based Design - Methodology For Development Of Long Term Design Strategy

Baggerud, Bjørn; Pettersen, Ida Nilstad; Liem, André // 2006

VISUAL SENSITIVITY: COMMUNICATING POOR QUALITY

Forslund, K.; Dagman, A.; Söderberg, R. // 2006
Visually perceived deviations from the nominal shapes, locations and orientations of parts can have negative impacts on the Visual Quality Appearance (VQA) of an assembled product. What deviations ...

VISUAL SPACE PERCEPTION MODEL IDENTIFICATION BY EVOLUTIONARY SEARCH

Bittermann, M.; Sariyildiz, S.; Ciftcioglu, Ö. // 2006
Visual perception of Spaces is relevant for design. Designs, which satisfy perceptual requirements are found based on assessments of perceptual implications. For this purpose a probabilistic model of ...

VISUALIZATION OF VARIATION IN EARLY DESIGN PHASES: A CONVEX HULL APPROACH

Lööf, J.; Söderberg, R.; Lindkvist, L. // 2006
As the demand on productivity in the manufacturing industry always increases, it’s important with tools that shorten the time from concept to production phases. Visualization has become a popular ...

Volumenvisualisierung von abweichungsbehafteter Geometrie

Wittmann, S.; Stockinger, A. // 2006

What happened to DFM? – 17 years of DFX-symposia

Andreasen, M.M.; Kvist, M.; Pedersen, R.; Fiil-Nielsen, O. // 2006

What happens to integrated product development models with produc/service-system approaches?

Tan, A. R.; McAloone, T. C.; Andreasen, M. M. // 2006
Integrated Product Development (IPD) has traditionally focused on the development activities relating to physical technological artefacts. With the advent of business approaches for manufacturing ...

WHAT INFORMATION CAN WE EXTRACT FROM THE DOCUMENTATION OF STUDENT DESIGN PROJECTS?

Ponn, J.; Lindemann, U. // 2006
The paper presents research on the analysis of student design project documentation. The goal was to investigate, what information can be extracted in order to allow for conclusions on the ...

What students learn form IPD projects

van Schenk Brill, D.; Kater, K. // 2006
This paper descibes the results of an on-going investigation in the learning effects of integrated development projects at Fontys University of Applied Sciences. In three subsequent semesters the ...

WHAT THEY REALLY, REALLY WANT: USER CENTERED RESEARCH METHODS FOR DESIGN

Lofthouse, V.A.; Lilley, D. // 2006
The paper draws on the combined experiences of the authors with findings from the literature to present a range of user centred research techniques. These techniques can be used by designers to ...

Boolean Searches

The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:

  • design community
    Find rows that contain at least one of the two words.
  • +design +community
    Find rows that contain both words.
  • +design community
    Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”.
  • +design -community
    Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”.
  • +design ~community
    Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not.
  • +design +(>community <decisions)
    Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions”
  • design*
    Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”.
  • "some words"
    Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
