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:
Robust design (RD) aims to design systems that are insensitive to variation, reducing costly iterations in later product development stages. Evaluation of the early RD methods, often case-based like the modeling method with the EFRT model, lacks empirical investigation with novice applicants, which hinders further research into the success criteria of these methods. In this paper, a cross-over study evaluating the applicability and efficacy of the modeling method revealed its support for early RD. This encourages further RD research and provides a foundation for future investigation.
