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:
Utilisation of Robust Design (RD) principles in early stages of product development can reduce costly iterations by identifying concepts that are less prone to functional losses caused by variations. Valuable implications can be drawn from those principles, which are currently not transferred to later stages. Motivated by that, the RD principles are studied with the EFRT-Model. The transferability of nine different RD principles to later stages is analysed with a variation simulation of the exemplary snap fit joint use case and discussed based on their utilisation on a four-point scale.
