To achieve sustainable product design, it is crucial to use sustainability assessment during the product design process. In this paper, numerous sustainability assessment methodologies in product design are reviewed. A comprehensive assessment of sustainability has been reported to present better performance for improving product sustainability. This review focused on the consideration of sustainability elements by previous researchers that have proposed integrated design tools, commercial software tools and combination both methods in supporting the methodologies. Based on this review, it can be concluded that the inclusion of sustainability performance among the assessment criteria in the design process activities is suggested as a critical point of concern which presents a challenge and is a great opportunity to develop useful guidelines or directions for industries or any product-based project so that the proposed approach will be accepted for implementation in the working environment.

Abstract Advancement in engineering provides various improvement in quality life while taking consideration of important factors for safety and environment. The use of mower food maintenance of land it is very common across several parts of the world with some frequent noise generated through its operation. This article is an attempt to study the noise and frequency generated through the vibrations of mower blade. In this study, an integrated design for designing, testing and developing mower blade that generates less noise is presented. For designing efficient blade that produces less noise, we have implemented various engineering approaches such as rapid product design, process of re-engineering and reverse engineering. The simulation of the designed blade is carried out through CAD software where the design prototype is analysed for its performance. The outcomes of the prototype are tested through simulation and its performance is compared for the determination of success of proposed design at different variations in frequency level. It is observed through the experimentation that the noise and vibration differences are generated through load carrying vehicles, mowers with riding capacity and simple mowers. From the analysis, mower with riding capacity is observed as safest among all other types of machines.

Abstract Research has been carried out at Coventry University Centre for Integrated Design on the concept design process and it is funded by the Coventry University Research Fund. An experiment, simulating product design in industry, was conducted by concept designers which were, in turn, acted by student industrial designers and student engineering designers. In general the product design process is a sequential process. The first part of the process is the conceptual phase. This is followed by the engineering design phases which include all the manufacturing information. In this case the downstream engineering design focuses on designs for manufacture and process selection. Information on the requirements of conceptual designers in these areas was collected from these experiments. The information is ultimately to be incorporated into rules in a knowledge base which can be readily accessed by the industrial designer during concept development via a CAD system.

This paper examines the application of proposed Design Structure Matrix (DSM) by modeling the collaborative design of the Automotive Powertrain System. A task of the whole design process is divided into several levels and some specific design tasks. Respectively, the flow diagram is set up based on the DSM principle. In order to optimize the design process and to shorten the development cycle, detailed analysis and reconstruction of DSM were performed by eliminating iterative design process.

Abstract Refinement of product design processes is recognized as a means for organizations to impact lead times, cost, and quality. Although methods such as the design structure matrix (DSM) exist to analyze design processes, their applications have been limited by overhead in collecting data and maintaining accurate representations. Representation timeliness and resolution issues have typically led to static, high-level process views. In this work, the design process is derived dynamically from an evolving network of design resources inter-related by service dependencies. This network is created to simulate the state of a product design. Through the analysis of resulting dependencies, high-resolution networks of task and parameter interdependency can be extracted. A software module is developed to provide the service of automatically extracting and analyzing the structure of service exchanges in integrated design models. The module provides a matrix or DSM visualization of service relationships and mechanisms to sort resources according to service priority. This allows for realtime evaluation of design processes as models of the product evolve, providing information to guide the strategic addition of resources.
