TOWARDS A METHOD FOR PROFILING ENGINEERING DOCUMENTATION
Wild, P.J.; Culley, S.J.; McMahon, C.A.; Darlington, M.J.; Liu, S. // 2006
Recent years have seen a lot of interest in how people use, generate, save, and search, paper and electronic documents. We build on this and related work to develop a method for profiling ...
Towards A Sensory Approach for Designing Pleasurable User-Product Experiences
Fenech, O.C.; Borg, J.C. // 2006
TOWARDS A STRATEGY FOR MAPPING OF DESIGN PROBLEMS TO SUITABLE SOLUTIONS – A CASE OF DESIGN AUTOMATION USING CBR
Cederfeldt, M. // 2006
In order to make the designing of product variants more effective and efficient by automating the process, there is a need to break down and analyse the design process. In doing so, a clearer picture ...
Towards Uncertainty-aware Management of Design Reuse
Nilsson, C. // 2006
TRACEABILITY OF SIMULATION DATA IN A PLM ENVIRONMENT: PROPOSITION OF A STEP-BASED SYSTEM THAT SUPPORT PARAMETER INTEGRATION
Ducellier, G.; Charles, S.; Eynard, B.; Caillaud, E. // 2006
The exchanges between experts represent a key challenge for collaborative product development. It is based on prior researches developed in the domain of Simulation Data Management and proposes the ...

TRANSFER OF DESIGN TECHNIQUES FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMPLEX NATURAL FORMS IN STEEL - A CASE STUDY
Lewis, A.; Murphy, D.S.; Tomlin, M.C. // 2006
The introduction of an industrial design graduate into a steel fabrication company in the UK not only brought fresh ideas for new products but also new design methodologies. In particular the ...
Transformation Ssystems – Revisited
Eder, W. E.; Hosnedl, S. // 2006
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 ...
UNDERSTANDING DESIGN COMPLEXITY THROUGH THE MODELLING OF HUMANS
A. J., Medland; G. ,Mullineux // 2006
USE OF BISPECTRAL ANALYSIS IN PROGNOSIS OF THE SYSTEM DESTRUCTION PROCESS
Radkowski, S.; Zawisza, M. // 2006
Use of IT Tools from Designers’ Perspective - Information Integration Aspects in Complex Product Development
Bergsjö, D.; Malvius, D. // 2006
USE OF KNOWLEDGE MAPS TO RECOGNIZE DIFFERENT RESEARCH CAPABILITIES
Weiss, Z.; Grajewski, D. // 2006
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 Multiple Modular Structures in Delivering Complex Products
Juuti, T.; Lehtonen, T. // 2006
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 ...

Dekoninck, Elies // 2006
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 ...
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.
