  1. 1. MECHATRONIC METAPHORS : An embodied realist framework of complexity and expertise in mechatronic project work

    Author : Elias Flening; Martin Grimheden; Anna Jerbrant; David Bradley; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Utvecklingsprojekt inom mekatronik innehåller höga nivåer av komplexitet och kräver expertis i samma utsträckning för att hantera denna. I och med globalt minskande produktivitetsvinster från ingenjörsarbete samt ”outtrassliga” (wicked) problem i utvecklingen av mekatroniska system – med sedan länge rapporterade utmaningar så som brist på gemensam systemförståelse, avsaknad av gemensamt språk för koncept, och disparata mentala modeller – så blir det kritiskt att förstå de faktiskt gällande uppfattningar av komplexitet och kompetens inom utvecklingsprojekt.

  2. 2. A tool for holistic optimization of mechatronic design concepts

    Author : Daniel Malmquist; Jan Wikander; Marc Budinger; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechatronics; Design methodology; Conceptual design; Optimization; Modeling; Integrated design; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Abstract : Designing mechatronic systems is challenging. Even so, mechatronicproducts are regarded as one of the most important means in order toinnovate in many large industries, e.g. automobile and aerospace. READ MORE

  3. 3. Model and Dependency Management in Mechatronic Design

    Author : Ahsan Qamar; Wikander Jan; Carl During; Kristina Shea; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dependency Modeling; Model-Based Systems Engineering MBSE ; Mechatronic Design; Model Integration; Tool Integration; Common Language; Mechatronic Challenges; Domain Specific Language.;

    Abstract : Managing consistency is a major concern in the design of complex engineering systems. At times, inconsistencies may lead to wrong decisions, resulting in design flaws which can compromise safety and cause failures. One cannot forget the 1999 NASA unmanned MARS Climate Orbiter, which was destroyed due to use of inconsistent units by design teams. READ MORE

  4. 4. An Integrated Approach towards Model-Based Mechatronic Design

    Abstract : Mechatronic design is an enigma. On the one hand, mechatronic products promise enhanced functionality, and better performance at reduced cost. On the other hand, optimizing mechatronic design concepts is a major challenge to overcome during the design process. READ MORE

  5. 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
