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. Please note that these resources are accessible exclusively to Design Society members.

Abstract:
The question how to combine conceptual changes with optimization strategies and life cycle information to implement semi-automatical design changes regarding real environmental conditions in product development is still a challenge. The presented approach of an evolution-based development outlines a framework to get one step closer to computer-aided design variation. Instancing the bicycle important aspects like product representation, optimization strategies as well as the invariance of feedback variables are focused in detail.
