With the over-exploitation of global resources and the increasing cost of developing land resources, marine resources have become the new choice for coastal countries to address resource problems. The development and utilization of marine resources encourages the growing of marine engineering equipment manufacturing industry. In this paper, we take Guangdong Province as the studied area, which has a natural advantage for the development of shipping and marine equipment industry, applying the mainstream industry competitive advantage theory – “diamond model” to build evaluation index system. And we calculate combining weights by AHP and variation coefficient method, as well as giving a comprehensive evaluation from the perspective of quantitative analysis for development of marine engineering equipment manufacturing industry in Guangdong Province. The results show that although Guangdong marine engineering equipment manufacturing industry achieves rapid development in recent years, the total scale amount of industry is small, shipbuilding industry development is slow, and professional technical personnel is inadequate. For these problems, this paper provides some suggestions for marine equipment manufacturing industry in Guangdong Province.

ABSTRACTThis paper has focused on reviewing passive bionic grasper and designing a virtual prototype using a computer modelling technique. The main aim of this study is to review existing research and compare their functionalities. This has been followed by introducing a concept design with suitable components. To start the project, generating a clear overview form the most updated and relative knowledge and information on existing designs was the intention of the study. The concept design part of this study uses an iterative process (similar to the Double Diamond Model introduced by Frances et al (2019)) including Discover, Define, Develop and Deliver to complete the design components. Following the concept design process, the detailed theoretical considerations and the features of components selection were then defined. In Develop Phase, the goal was to decide the final design and generate the computer model using SolidWorks. The fourth phase of process was Delivery leading the design evaluation and validation of the generated model or virtual prototype. By completing the process, it is possible to determine the feasibility of the design and the need for improvement. In final stage of the design, a finite element approach using SolidWorks Simulation was performed on the concept. Final design was decided after comparing the concepts in terms of several considerations. A series of simulations were performed on the design to evaluate the durability of the design and extend its functionality. The results showed that the supporting pad was robust enough when dropped down from 1.5 meters height, while the hinge which connecting the finger straps would need further improvement to avoid failure during its practical loading.

This paper proposes a typology for the different roles and drivers present-day designers may fulfil, which may depend on the kind of organisational context involved and the type of innovation. The interest in the potential of designers contributing to business and management innovation and the economy as a whole has grown, with the premise being that companies modelling innovation processes on the design process are more innovative and more successful than others. Design has become represented almost as a synonym to innovation and a legitimate response to criticisms of management training for being too scientific and detached from real-world complexities and problems. This raises a need to understand and clarify the roles designers can have or take, in companies but also in the public sector, where design is increasingly commissions contribute to innovation. Based on a multi-case study approach we propose a typology based on three different types related to the outcome of designers acting as innovators: product, process and service innovation. With these types of innovations we propose a typology for the different roles designers can have and take based on a hierarchical model related to the Double Diamond model for the design process. Radical innovations are related to strategic level and benefit from the potential of designers with an artistic and aesthetic approach.
