This article focuses on applying the ethics of the product features during the students’ design education. Good/Bad design term is a conventional approach to discuss the ethical/unethical design values of the products. It is noted that different aspects of the product design such as visual information design, interface design, and appearance design have a vital role in judging the levels of ethics in the product. So the students of product design everywhere need to practice the term ethical/unethical design during their study because designers influence society more than they could imagine. This influence can be done by creating an attractive organized appearance and perfect functions that support the ethical brand’s image to the customers. The interviews and discussions were held as a research method with the students of product design in some institutions in addition to some design experts and customers to find out their opinions about the design values that achieve the ethical dimensions in the product design. They can end up with products that carry ethical values in their design. The final article’s results are in the descending order of the different design values according to their importance in emphasizing the ethical aspects of the products, in addition to a checklist including some important questions that can help the designers to be more aware of ethics’ considerations in the product design because ethics is a process of learning, not a process of obedience, and to highlighting the term of ethical designer which in turn reflects on the ethics of customers and societies.

Runner Design

The runner design is an important parts in plastic molding design. Its shape and dimensions have special effects on the molten plastic’s pressure, hot loss, injection speed, etc. At present, trapezoidal runner is used widely for better fluidity and lower assembly precision relatively compared with the circular runner. This paper uses the Fminsearch function of MATLAB and constructs an objective function based on the minimum length of the perimeter of the trapezoidal runner to optimize the trapezoidal runner section. The conclusion of this paper is that the perimeter of the trapezoidal runner is the shortest one when a equals c (shown as Fig.1), as well as the obtuse angle between a and c equals 120o. At this conditions, the volume of the molten plastic that flows through the runner section is maximum when the trapezoidal runner section area is given. The optimization results in the plastic mould design can used as the size or the constraints to drive the runner section in 3D CAD/CAM software, which can help the designer to get the trapezoidal runner section easily and quickly.

Abstract The aim of sustainability is to fulfil the needs of current generations without compromising the needs of future generations. It is also a rising area of concern within industry, it is therefore important that graduate designers are equipped with the skills to accommodate sustainability issues as well as demands from industry. Additionally, the product design stage during New Product Development has been identified to have the greatest impact on the sustainability of the entire product, however how educated designers are on the topic of sustainability is unclear. An initial literature review has been conducted to investigate design education on sustainability as well as teaching styles. Following this the study identifies and reviews UK Product Design courses to establish the current status of sustainability integration in higher education. The exploration into university prospectuses has found that around half of UK universities implement sustainability in some way, however there are limited courses which dedicate specific modules to sustainability. Additionally, links with industry and accreditation organizations between UK product design courses have been confirmed, but there is no definite information to suggest that the universities use this to aid in the implementation sustainability education. From this review future research directions have been outlined.

Analytical Assessment

With the accomplishment of new engineering science and technologies, machineries formulated by the the technocrats are utilized in medical field. Biomedical Engineering has thus gained a prominent status in the recent years. Few decades ago, it was considered as weird thing if any mechanical engineers performed studies on dental area, but in today’s scenario mechanical engineers are doing studies as well as research in the area of dental science. In this paper an attempt has been made to select best crown material for molar tooth, So that an appropriate material can be placed in the human body which is most difficult task .so for designing a molar crown, modeling is done in pro/engineer software, it is one of the parametric 3D CAD/CAM/CAE solution widely used by mechanical engineers for designing any product .this software creates a complete 3D Digital model of the product. For this extensive research, design for all crowns will be the same but only material properties will be different. After design, failure analysis is done. Loss of ability to function normally is the study of failure analysis. This is accomplished by considering various loading conditions .Here finite element analysis is used, the standard principle underlying the FEM are simple. The word finite is used to describe the limited, or finite, number of degrees of freedom used to model the behavior of each element, the element are assumed to be connected to one another but only at interconnected joints, known as nodes. Considering a body through which the distribution of a field variable I.e. displacement or stress is required, this body could be subjected to various loads. Problem is solved by two methods: static fatigue and dynamic fatigue
