Product Design Process

AbstractA design problem with deficient information is generally described as wicked or ill-defined. The information insufficiency leaves designers with loose settings, free environments, and a lack of strict boundaries, which provides them with more opportunities to facilitate innovation. Therefore, to capture the opportunity behind the uncertainty of a design problem, this study models an innovative design as a composite solving process, where the problem is clarified and resolved from fuzziness to satisfying solutions by interplay among design problems, knowledge, and solutions. Additionally, a triple-helix structured model for the innovative product design process is proposed based on the co-evolution of the problem, solution, and knowledge spaces, to provide designers with a distinct design strategy and method for innovative design. The three spaces interact and co-evolve through iterative mappings, including problem structuring, knowledge expansion, and solution generation. The mappings carry the information processing and decision-making activities of the design, and create the path to satisfying solutions. Finally, a case study of a reactor coolant flow distribution device is presented to demonstrate the practicability of this model and the method for innovative product design.

Design reuse is the application of past designs knowledge and successful experience to current design process and it is a significant method for rapid design. A knowledge-reuse-based rapid product design model is proposed and a three-factor product design iterative process model is studied. Finally, it is applied successfully in the rapid product design of construction machinery combining with the requirement of the construct machinery product design.

Integrate Design

Abstract Function is a key concept to integrate design object modeling and design process modeling in design. We here propose the FEP (Functional Evolution Process) model in order to integrate design object modeling and design process modeling. In the FEP model, the model of a design object is evolved through three steps, i.e., function description, function actualization and function evaluation. Function description is the step in which a designer modifies required functions of a design object. Function actualization depicts a process to obtain physical descriptions from functional description. Function evaluation is a process to measure realizability of functions of the design object. However, among other steps, how to treat the function evaluation is one of the most important theme, because evaluation executed by designers is based on subjective, ambiguous and tacit standards. We discuss a methodology for evaluating function and propose the function content that quantifies functions and enables evaluation of functions. The function content is a similar concept of Shannon’s information content and we show an example of functional optimization based on this scheme.

Do So

Abstract Most of the previous research efforts for design process modeling had such assumptions as “design as problem solving,” “design as decision making,” and “design by analysis,” and did not explicitly address “design as synthesis.” These views lack notion and understanding about synthesis. Compared with analysis, synthesis is less understood and clarified. This paper discusses our fundamental view on synthesis and approach toward a reasoning framework of design as synthesis. To do so, we observe the designer’s activity and formalize knowledge operations in design processes. From the observation, we propose a hypothetical reasoning framework of design based on multiple model-based reasoning. We discuss the implementation strategy for the framework.
