Variational design is an efficient method for product design; statistics indicates that about 70% of product design is attributed to variational design. It is of vital importance for enterprises to achieve a complex new product through variational design while reusing the previous part model series, which can mostly improve their capability and efficiency of product design and development. Therefore, this paper puts forward an efficient variational design method based on a master model which is automatically generated from a part model series. Using the method, the designers can easily and efficiently create a new part from the master model only through feature selection and parameter modification. In this way, the work of the designers can be greatly alleviated and the design time can be greatly reduced. Experimental results show that the proposed method is effective.

The purpose of this study is to apply a new design method, which integrates both optimum strength and product design. Here, the collaboration of design and strength by using composite materials is administered. Many products, which are made from high strength composite materials, require new product design technology. Existing product developments tend to separate product design from product planning. The process begins from planning the shape of the product, then calculating the strength, and lastly designing the product. In our new design method, we create from an engineering point of view. By using a design method of high-strength materials, we designed a new ZIGZAG CHAIR made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic of excellent strength and light-weight.

In this work, the sensory perception factor was firstly analyzed in infant product based on the great significance of infants cognitive development from the perspective of cognitive psychology. Basically, the corresponding relationship between the development of infant sensory perception and product design elements was researched, aiming at giving a basis for designers to determine the standards for product design and find more potential needs of infants. Then, incorporating a new product of automatic infant soap dispenser, the application of above design method has been further validated of and exploration.

Proposing the product design method based on innovative materials technology aim to play better the potential of materials’ application and to grasp the future trends of new products development. Combined with the recent typical innovative product cases to demonstrate four innovation design methods: reference, package and adhesion, superposition and integration, variation. These innovation methods’ applications indicate broader prospects of materials’ use that transformed from the state of “material”, the vision and touch of the “quality”, and it also play a positive role in new product development.

Background: In the whole design process of modular fuel tank, there are some unreasonable phenomena. As a result, there are some defects in the design of modular fuel tank, and the function does not meet the requirements in advance. This paper studies this problem. Objective: Through on-the-spot investigation of the factory, a mechanical design process model is designed. The model can provide reference for product design participants on product design time and design quality, and can effectively solve the problem of low product design quality caused by unreasonable product design time arrangement. Methods: After sorting out the data from the factory investigation, computer software is used to program, simulate the information input of mechanical design process, and the final reference value is got. Results: This mechanical design process model is used to guide the design and production of a new project, nearly 3 months ahead of the original project completion time. Conclusion: This mechanical design process model can effectively guide the product design process, which is of great significance to the whole mechanical design field.

We address the challenge of multi-agent system (MAS) design for organisations of agents acting in dynamic and uncertain environments where runtime flexibility is required to enable improvisation through sharing knowledge and adapting behaviour. We identify behavioural features that correspond to runtime improvisation by agents in a MAS organisation and from this analysis describe the OJAzzIC meta-model and an associated design method. We present results from simulation scenarios, varying both problem complexity and the level of organisational support provided in the design, to show that increasing design time guidance in the organisation specification can enable runtime flexibility afforded to agents and improve performance. Hence the results demonstrate the usefulness of the constructs captured in the OJAzzIC meta-model.

The purpose of this research is the development of new design method for integrating the optimum strength evaluation and the product design which can make the best use of material's characteristics obtained by the experiment and the analysis. Further we do design using high-strength composite material with this developed concept which is different from conventional design. First, to establish this design method of high-strength materials, we examined these materials characteristics and manufacturing methods and the commercialized products. As this research target material, we focus the fiber reinforced materials such as composite with carbon fiber, glass fiber and aramid fiber. Above all, we marked the carbon fiber which has the high specific tensile strength, wear resistance, heat conductivity and conductance. Here, we introduce the fundamental design concept which makes the best use of the design with enough strength.
