NordDesign 2020
The NordDesign conferences serve as a Nordic complement to the larger international conferences in design and product development, but we also wish to welcome participants from all other countries.
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:
In early phases of product development, uncertainty may be treated by a set-based design method relying on so-called solution spaces. In this approach, all relevant system requirements are used to produce interval-type component requirements that are sufficient for reaching the overall design goal while allowing for design flexibility. Unfortunately, only inequality-type requirements on the system level can be treated. This paper proposes several extensions to incorporate equality-based requirements into the framework and applies one projection technique to the design of a automotive tailgate.
