Modular products are products that fulfill various overall
functions through the combination of distinct building blocks or
modules, in the sense that the overall function performed by the
product can be divided into sub-functions that can be implemented
by different modules or components. An important aspect of modular
products is the creation of a basic core unit to which different
components (modules) can be fitted, thus enabling a variety of
versions of the same module to be produced. The core should have
sufficient capacity to cope with all expected variations in
performance and usage. Components used in a modular product must
have features that enable them to be coupled together to form a
complex product. Modularity will promote: reduction in product
development time; customization and upgrades; cost efficiencies due
to amortization; quality design standardization; and reduction in
order lead time. The purpose of this book is to develop a
structured approach to the design of products using the concept of
modularity, assembly, and manufacturability. The book has proposed
and developed a structured and systematic approach to product and
systems design using the modularity concept. Mathematical and
genetic algorithm models are developed to support the developed
methodology.
