Design Engineering and Science teaches the theory and practice of
axiomatic design (AD). It explains the basics of how to conceive
and deliver solutions to a variety of design problems. The text
shows how a logical framework and scientific basis for design can
generate creative solutions in many fields, including engineering,
materials, organizations, and a variety of large systems. Learning
to apply the systematic methods advocated by AD, a student can
construct designs that lead to better environmental sustainability
and to increased quality of life for the end-user at the same time
reducing the overall cost of the product development process.
Examples of previous innovations that take advantage of AD methods
include: * on-line electric vehicle design for electric buses with
wireless power supply; * mobile harbors that allow unloading of
large ships in shallow waters; * microcellular plastics with
enhanced toughness and lower weight; and * organizational changes
in companies and universities resulting in more efficient and
competitive ways of working. The book is divided into two parts.
Part I provides detailed and thorough instruction in the
fundamentals of design, discussing why design is so important. It
explains the relationship between and the selection of functional
requirements, design parameters and process variables, and the
representation of design outputs. Part II presents multiple
applications of AD, including examples from manufacturing,
healthcare, and materials processing. Following a course based on
this text students learn to create new products and design bespoke
manufacturing systems. They will gain insight into how to create
imaginative design solutions that satisfy customer needs and learn
to avoid introducing undue complexity into their designs. This
informative text provides practical and academic insight for
engineering design students and will help instructors teach the
subject in a novel and more rigorous fashion. Their knowledge of AD
will stand former students in good stead in the workplace as these
methods are both taught and used in many leading industrial
concerns.
