    Abstract : Where do companies begin their efforts when trying to improve information management in product development? In large companies involving many people, multiple processes and highly technological products several factors have an impact on efficiency. Interdisciplinary integration and structured information are two overall proposed key factors that have been identified as important to obtain efficient information management. READ MORE

  7. 5. Towards a methodology for integrated design of mechatronic servo systems

    Author : Fredrik Roos; Jan Wikander; Hans Johansson; Hendrik van Brussel; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechatronics; Servo Systems; Design Methodology; Integrated Design; Construction engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Traditional methods for mechatronics design are often based on a sequential approach, where the mechanical structure is designed first, and then fitted with off-the-shelf electric motors, drive electronics, gearheads and sensors. Finally a control system is designed and optimized for the already existing physical system. READ MORE
