Traditional critical goals for industrial products design includes five factors. They are utility, appearance, ease of maintenance, low costs and communication[1]. In this paper, puts forth a new perspective, in which considers that embodying of human-centered perspective should be also another critical goal to industrial product besides traditional five critical goals. The paper is aimed at giving rise to the industrial designers to pay more attention to the design principles of ‘Human-Centered’ during their household bisic appliances product design because they are usually ignored by the designers. In the paper, mainly analyzed some household basic appliances products, which are used in every day life of people. The way of study is to analyze some problems in the products design by the examples of the products that are being applied in every day life, but there are some defects. What the analyses mainly concerned is how to embody the principle of “human-centered” in industrial product design. The “green design” and “healthy design” should be put the first place when industrial designers to design industrial products.

This article proposes a concept that is industrial Product Modeling Based on Green Design to spread the green thought with the most direct-viewing way. This concept concerns the modeling from the angle of ecology and environment. This article discusses the methods of realizing green modeling design, by the six modeling elements: shape, material, structure, color and texture, to form the compatibility between environment and product modeling.

The material is the main factor for the formation of the entity in the industrial product design. Modeling, colour, etc in the industrial product design are closely associated with the material. With a large number of modern new materials developed by research, the prospect of the industrial product design is broader and the value of industrial products, further enrich and improve. In product design, the designer should follow the principle of practical, beautiful, economy, environmental protection and reasonable use different material, so that the product can not only meet the functional requirements, but also has spiritual value.

In the design of industrial products, industrial designers face the new product design issues in ceramic materials. The designer will be more concerned about the application of new materials in the product design respected selection innovations. The emergence of the ceramic material, adding a new "color" for the design of the expression, provides designers with a richer design means of expression.

Made In

With the continuous development and progress of China's industry, it has become the only country in the world that has all the industrial categories in the United Nations Industrial Classification. China's industrial products have gradually changed from "Made in China" to "Design in China". The integration of Chinese national cultural elements into industrial product design has also become the future development trend in the field of design. This paper will analyze the application of national culture in industrial product design, and discuss how to better integrate the two with practical cases to promote the continuous development of the industry.

Product innovation design is challenging due to the complexity of the industrial environment, the changing needs of markets and customers, the effect of intense social competition, and the unpredictability of the future. This paper presents in a systematic analysis of reliability method on industrial product innovation design in order to illustrate what the real meaning of reliability method and how it works on the product innovation design. It also clarifies the relationship between reliability method and product innovation design, reflecting the function of reliability method on each work stage. It is concluded that a suitable thinking mode should be applied on the corresponding design, and it will enhance the effectiveness of innovative product design in general.

AbstractThis paper investigates and questions the relevance of product-centric circularity indicators in a product design context. To do so, reviews of eco-design tools and critical analyses of circularity indicators at the micro level of circular economy implementation are combined with a new workshop experimenting four of these indicators with the aim to improve the circularity performance of an industrial product. On this basis, the four tool-based circularity indicators tested are mapped on the engineering design and development process, and are positioned among the pool of main eco-design tools.

The Way

Why is the human mind able to perceive and understand the truth about reality; that is, why does it seem to be the mind's specific function to know the world? Sean Kelsey argues that both the question itself and the way Aristotle answers it are key to understanding his work De Anima, a systematic philosophical account of the soul and its powers. In this original reading of a familiar but highly compressed text, Kelsey shows how this question underpins Aristotle's inquiry into the nature of soul, sensibility, and intelligence. He argues that, for Aristotle, the reason why it is in human nature to know beings is that 'the soul in a way is all beings'. This new perspective on the De Anima throws fresh and interesting light on familiar Aristotelian doctrines: for example, that sensibility is a kind of ratio (logos), or that the intellect is simple, separate, and unmixed.

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.
