Lifecycle Design

Sustainable product development (SPD) requires that product design achieve minimal or zero environmental impact, while satisfying other design criteria such as functionality, quality, desirable features, and acceptable cost and time to market. Therefore, environmental evaluations must be incorporated into the design stage. This research is aimed at the development of a new approach to lifecycle design and evaluation. This paper proposes a framework to optimize functional, environmental, and economic (FEE) performance towards sustainable design. Based on the three dimensions of FEE, a systematic lifecycle design process model is proposed, which consists of: the three FEE requirements; two design objects (physical structure and lifecycle structure); and, the FEE evaluation streams of LCQ (functional lifecycle quality), LCA (environmental lifecycle assessment) and LCC (economic lifecycle costing). A new concept, called process-based analysis (PBA) is defined, and used as the base for FEE evaluations.

Sustainable product development (SPD) requires that product design achieves minimum or zero environmental impact, in addition to satisfying the traditional design criteria such as product functionality, quality, features, costs and time to market. Therefore, the environmental evaluations must be incorporated into design stage. In this research, a product design process model was proposed which includes three design requirements, two design tasks, and three comprehensive assessment streams. The functional requirement is derived from the customer needs to reflect the product’s functional purpose; the environmental requirement reflects the society’s needs of protecting natural resources and environment; and the economic requirement is to ensure the company’s basic business goals. Accordingly, SPD aims to simultaneously carry out two tasks of designing products’ physical structures and lifecycle structures. In the assessment phase of product design, three assessment streams, lifecycle quality (LCQ) analysis, lifecycle assessment (LCA), and lifecycle cost (LCC) are conducted with respect to the functional, environmental, and economic evaluations. A Process-Based Analysis concept is proposed for analysis of all three dimensions of LCQ, LCA, and LCC evaluations. Simplified LCA was used for environmental evaluations. The detailed assessment techniques are also developed for effective design evaluations. A case study will be provided to illustrate the methods and models.

It is beneficial to conduct LCA(Life Cycle Assessment) during early stages of product development, as the earlier the environmental problems associated with the product life cycle are discovered, the less costly and more effective the preventing measures are. However, due to the lack of data communication tools between CAD and LCA systems, life cycle data collection during design stage is difficult. This paper presents a feature-based method of UGNX-LCA integration for sustainable product development. A feature-based multi-view life cycle model for integrating product-process-LCI (Life Cycle Inventory) data is developed based on mapping mechanism between engineering domains of product design, process planning and LCA. Data migration from UGNX models to LCA, including UG modeling feature identification, UG-LC(Life Cycle) feature transformation and LC feature model output are realized by embedded integrator. A case study of data migration from UGNX to LCA is presented to demonstrate the proposed approach.

The increasing competition among the manufacturing organizations and stringent government regulation forces the manufacturing organizations to implement sustainability principles in manufacturing. Sustainability focuses on material, product development, and manufacturing process orientations. End of life (EoL) disposal of the product is very much important in the modern scenario. The remanufacturing is a vital strategy for attaining sustainability in manufacturing. The assessment of remanufacturability of products needs to be done during the design stage so as to provide the manufacturers the guidelines for sustainable product development. In this context, this chapter presents the insights on remanufacturability index assessment for a typical automotive product. The practical implications of the study are also being discussed.

AbstractOver the last years, academic literature has made significant progress on the development of key concepts, identifying circular product typologies, developing assessment methods, and exploring the synergies with manufacturing trends such as digitalisation or environmental management. Nevertheless, less attention has been paid on describing process model changes necessary for the implementation of circular product development. For this reason, this paper presents the circular Sustainable Product Development (cSPD) morphological field, aimed at providing implementation guidance to business and industry. It describes possible reconfigurations of the Sustainable Product Development (SPD) process model to further integrate circularity R-strategies, design scopes, design guidelines, inter- and intra-organisational actors and criteria for evaluation. With this framework, we intend to identify the most defining parameters in the process model and assign them a discrete number of categorical values so that different combinations explain the generation of prevalent circular product typologies in the manufacturing of durable goods.

Many industries are labor-intensive and energy- and resource-consuming. A sustainable development plan is necessary for the industries as industrial structures have been changing recently. Taiwan’s shoe industry also has experienced such changes and requires a sustainable product development plan for continuous development. Therefore, this study aims to propose a new method by introducing a model of sustainable product development to facilitate the sustainable development of the industry. By taking air-cushioned casual shoe production as an example, this study suggested the refined Kano quality model for exploring the product attributes that improved the customers’ satisfaction. The refined Kano model that was established with interviews and questionnaire surveys was effective to define the product attributes that contributed to satisfying the customers and understanding their perception of product attributes. In the air-cushioned casual shoe production, the model found function, design, innovation, marketing, and service to be important for manufacturers to develop products with limited. It also suggested the priority be put on the attributes of high value-added quality, key quality, and potential quality. The model helped manufacturers decide which product attributes they need to invest in and develop. The relation of product attributes and consumer satisfaction for a sustainable product development model was also found by using the refined Kano model. The result of this study is expected to apply to various industries for establishing an appropriate sustainable product development model.
