REACHING THE COST TARGET - CURRENT STATUS IN SMEs
Nissl, A.; Lindemann, U. // 2004
Many companies apply the method of Target Costing in order to offer products with an optimal cost-performance ratio. Due to this method, every decision within the product development process has to ...
REALITIES IN INTERDISCIPLINARY SYSTEMS DESIGN
Kaljas, Frid; Kallo, Rommi; Reedik, Vello // 2004
It is obvious that the integration of different technologies into interdisciplinary systems cannot be treated as their simple summing but as a way of compensating their mutual weaknesses and ...
RECOGNIZING THE NEEDS FOR IMPROVING THE PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT FOR NEW PRODUCTS IN THE INDUSTRY
Larsson, F.; Mortensen, N.H.; Andreasen, M.M. // 2004
The lack of sound portfolio management for new products increases the probability that the company’s product portfolio will have a potential low business value. This research reveals that portfolio ...
RECONSIDERING THE DESIGN STUDIO: ITS ROLE IN ENGINEERING PRACTICE
Whyte, J.; Ewenstein, B.; Gann, D. // 2004
REFLECTIONS ABOUT REFLECTIVE PRACTICE
Eder, W. E.; Hubka, V. // 2004
Reflection is an essential characteristic of designing, but only a part of that process. Few attempts have been made to specify what questions should be useful in reflection. This paper brings the ...

RELIABILITY OF ACTIVE SYSTEMS - AN ESSENTIAL DESIGN ASPECT FOR COMMERCIAL SUCCESS
Büter, A.; Melz, T.; Hanselka, H. // 2004
In this paper examples will be given to show and assess the significance of the reliability of active systems. The usability period and the failure probability of each system component is essentially ...

SELECTING AND COMBINING METHODS FOR COMPLEX PROBLEM SOLVING WITHIN THE DESIGN PROCESS
Franke, H.-J.; Deimel, M. // 2004
The paper describes two approaches to select easily methods for the support of single working steps within the design process. Further, it is essential for the desired support of the entire process, ...
SELECTION AND MODIFICATION OF CONNECTIONS
Klett, J.; Blessing, L. // 2004
Products should be optimized through improving the functionality of connections and the process of (dis-)connecting. Also the complexity of connections is considered. At present no established ...
Selection of Optimal Combinations of Solution Principles from a Morphological Diagram
Gilboa, Y.; Weiss, M. P.; Cohen, A. // 2004
SHAPE MODIFICATION OF SCULPTED GEOMETRIC MODELS OF ARBITRARY TOPOLOGY
Veelo, B.N. // 2004
The challenges that a designer faces in modelling shapes of arbitrary topology, are well supported by the so-called H-rep concept, which is based on the tangent plane continuous interpolation of an ...
SHARING NEW KNOWLEDGE: NEW FORMS OF RESEARCH
Takken, R.; Whitman, P. // 2004
This paper examines how knowledge derived from practice may be viewed as a valid form of research in the architectural profession, and questions how this knowledge is disseminated. Barriers to the ...
SIMULATING DESIGN PROCESSES TO INCREASE MANAGERS' UNDERSTANDING
O'Donovan, B.; Eckert, C.; Clarkson, P.J. // 2004
Beginning a design project is challenging. Managers need to understand where the risks lie in the new process. They need to plan tasks and allocate resources to them. Most products are designed by ...
SIMULATION IN PRODUCT DESIGN: AN ITERATIVE QUESTION-ANSWER DRIVEN PROCESS
Andersson, K. // 2004
In order to support a question-answer driven simulation process, a design process model capable of describing problem statements, model specifications, simulation models and problem answers as ...
SIMULATION OF AN ADAPTIVE ER DAMPER SUPPORTED BY AN EFFECT-CATALOG
Kahlert, M.; Iriondo, A.; Schweiger, W. // 2004
In the early stages of design the computer-aided modelling support is still insufficient. It is here shown as an efficient tool for material selection criteria, an effect-catalogue followed by a ...
SIMULATION OF PRODUCTS LIFE CYCLE: METHODOLOGICAL BASIS AND ANALYSIS MODELS
Giudice, F.; La Rosa, G.; Risitano, A.; Strazzeri, G. // 2004
The aim of this work consists of developing a methodological basis and the models for analysis, to allow the simulation of products life cycle at the design stage. The direct link between design ...
Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
