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:
We propose a new extended version of the previously introduced Integrated Modularization Methodology (IMM) that integrates technical complexity and business strategic concerns when clustering the architecture. The extended IMM (eIMM) adds physical interference and implementation dependent behavior into product architecture clustering. A presently developed battery electric truck is used as a test bench for studying if and how the product architecture DSM and eIMM approach may enable us to identify module candidates that are reasonable trade-offs between technical complexity, business strategies and physical interference. The presented case study indicates that eIMM is able to propose a modular product architecture without conflicting business strategies or intra-modular physical interferences, as well as reasonable module candidates from a technical complexity point of view.
