Knowledge Base Repository
In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters.

Abstract:
Production as one of the main limiting factors must be considered during product design. Today product concepts need to be robust, i.e. in this context suitable for various production concepts and conditions. To understand the significant interdependencies of product concepts and production systems in early phases, we propose a procedural model including the analysis of both areas on different abstraction levels and the use of a Multiple-Domain Matrix. Especially the influence different production alternatives have on the product concept indicates key factors for a design of robust products.
