  2. 6. Managing design rationale in the development of product families and related design automation systems

    Author : Morteza Poorkiany; Fredrik Elgh; Joel Johansson; Jerzy Pokojski; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design rationale; design automation system; computer-supported engineering design; product development;

    Abstract : As the markets’ needs change rapidly, developing a variety of products that meet customers’ diverse needs is a competitive factor for many manufacturing companies. Development of highly customized products requires following an engineer-to-order business process to allow the products to be modified or adapted to new customers’ specifications, which brings more value to the customer and profit to the company.

  4. 7. Automated Cost Estimation of Product Variants - A Tool for Enhanced Producibility

    Author : Fredrik Elgh; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design for Producibility; Cost Estimation; Producibility Evaluation; Information Modelling; System Development; Variant Design; Process Planning; Design Automation;

    Abstract : The estimation of product cost is a central activity in the design process. Most companies act in an environment of high competition where the market sets the product price. This, in combination with a focus on satisfying the shareholders demand for return on investment, results in a focus on cost as a constraint. READ MORE

  5. 8. Support Maintenance of Design Automation Systems - A Framework to Capture, Structure and Access Design Rationale

    Author : Morteza Poorkiany; Fredrik Elgh; Joel Johansson; Amer Catic; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Design automation system; computer supported engineering design; design rationale; and traceability.;

    Abstract : The ability to innovate and launch customized products that are well matched to customer demands is a competitive factor for many manufacturing companies. Development of highly customized products requires following an engineer-to-order business process to allow the products to be modified or adapted to new customers’ specifications, which brings more value to the customer and profit to the company.

  6. 9. Does Form follow Function? Connecting Function Modelling and Geometry Modelling for Design Space Exploration

    Author : Jakob Müller; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; knowledge based engineering; design automation; engineering design; systems engineering; design space exploration; product models; product development; function modelling;

    Abstract : The aerospace industry, representative of industries developing complex products, faces challenges from changes in user behaviour, legislation, environmental policy. Meeting these challenges will require the development of radically new products. READ MORE

  7. 10. Design for Serviceability - A probabilistic approach

    Author : Daniel Honfi; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design codes; long-term deflections; structural reliability; serviceability;

    Abstract : In many design situations the acceptable performance of structures is defined by serviceability requirements. To estimate the probability of serviceability failure three main design aspects should be considered: (1) the relevant exposures, (2) the structural response and (3) the performance criteria.
