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:
Decision-making and selection of different design alternatives is a central activity in product development. This paper compares the decision process of Set-Based Concurrent Engineering to Pugh’s method of controlled convergence in an industrial case study. The purpose is to investigate if the set-based decision process renders different results compared to the traditional Pugh matrix selection. In the case study, Pugh’s matrix promoted the development of new concepts. The set-based process offered the opposite approach, aiming at improving the currently used technologies.
