Designed for use in the interdisciplinary courses on product
development as well as by practicing professionals, Product Design
and Development 7e strikes a balanced approach between theory and
practice through the authors' emphasis on methods.
During the design of products and systems, a core challenge for
design teams is to make choices between design concepts that
reflect a group's opinion and allows decisions to be traced back
over time. Underlying such decision-making is the notion of
preferences in which a design team assigns priorities to a set of
design choices. "Implicit Preferences in Engineering Design"
presents a design team-centered approach for automatically
extracting a team's preferences in an implicit, low overhead way,
rather than more traditional, explicit strategies via voting,
surveys or questionnaires. This work also explores how preferences
evolve throughout the design decision-making process. The methods
presented in this book provide a quantitative way to understand and
represent qualitative design information using an information
extraction method that can operate in the background, while design
teams go about their normal work. An illustrative case study is
included to indicate the applicability of the approaches proposed
in the work.
