2. 1. Anthropometric diversity and consideration of human capabilities

   Author : Erik Brolin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Human Factors; Ergonomics; Simulation; Anthropometry; Workplace Design; Diversity; Product Design; Accommodation; Digital Human Modelling; Visualisation; Multi-Dimensional;

   Abstract : Contemporary product and production development is typically carried out with the support of computer tools where the design of products and workstations are originated and evaluated within virtual environments. Ergonomics addresses factors important to consider in the product and production development process to ensure a good fit between humans and the items being designed. READ MORE

4. 2. PENSIERI - An Inquiry into Sketching and Modelling in Design

   Author : Maral Babapour Chafi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Physical and Digital Modelling; Sketching; Design Activities; Concept Generation; Product Representations;

   Abstract : When proposing ideas for design solutions, designers often make representations, for example sketches and models of different kinds. This thesis seeks to examine what designers do when interacting with different media to externalise their ideas, and the resources they have at their disposal. READ MORE

5. 3. Ergonomics Integration and User Diversity in Product

   Author : Dan Högberg; Högskolan i Skövde; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; product design; design ergonomics; design methods; human simulation; human diversity; Manufacturing engineering; Produktionsteknik; Work sciences and ergonomics; Arbetsvetenskap och ergonomi; Teknik; Technology;

   Abstract : Concideration of products' ergonomic qualitys is one important component for  successful product developement. Product designers engaged in the core activity of product developement need methods that support the consideration of ergonomics along with other product requirements. this thesis aims to adress these needs.

6. 4. Collaborative Multidisciplinary Design Optimization for Conceptual Design of Complex Products

   Author : Edris Safavi; Johan Ölvander; Mehdi Tarkian; Hampus Gavel; Jerzy Pokojski; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : MULTIDESCIPLINARY design optimization (MDO) has developed in theory andpractice during the last three decades with the aim of optimizing complexproducts as well as cutting costs and product development time. Despite thisdevelopment, the implementation of such a method in industry is still a challenge andmany complex products suffer time and cost overruns. READ MORE

7. 5. Integrated Product and Production Platforms for Pharmaceutical Products: Design Thinking for the Development of Personalized Medicines

   Author : Maria Daniela Irene Siiskonen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Integrated product and production platforms; Personalized medicines; Mass customization;

   Abstract : Treatments, when customized according to individual patient attributes, are in recent years referred to as personalized medicines. Personalized medicines aim at improving the therapeutic outcome of the patient. However, current pharmaceutical production is dominated by mass production in a batch manner, i.e. READ MORE
