MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS OF INFORMATION FLOWS IN DESIGN AND EDUCATION
Miki, H.; Kakuda, Y.; Kikuchi, M. // 2004
Education seems to be closely parallel to design. In design activities, we try to seek a solution of design by which we can produce entities according to specifications. Similarly in educational ...

MULTIPLE ATTRIBUTE DECISION MAKING TOWARDS MOST ACCEPTABLE VARIANT SOLUTION
Kljajin, M.; Ivandic, Z.; Kozak, D. // 2004
Modern product development concept is based on the product as a technical system. Developed model in this paper connects the product as a technical system and designer. Different models of decision ...
New developments in Fontys IPE-Projects
van Schenk Brill, D.; Kater, K. // 2004
Since 1995 IPD-projects have been carried out at the Fontys University of Higher Education. IPD stands for Integrated Product Development. In general the structure of those projects does not differ ...
OBJECT-ORIENTED PRODUCT MODELING FOR EARLY ASSEMBLY COST ESTIMATION
Giannoulis, D.; Welp, E. G. // 2004
Although an early assembly cost estimation can lead to decreased manufacturing cost, existent methods do not support sufficiently such an estimation. Therefore, an object-oriented product-modeling ...
ON THE SUPERIORITY OF OPPORTUNISTIC DESIGN STRATEGIES DURING EARLY EMBODIMENT DESIGN
Bender, B.; Blessing ,L. // 2004
The prescriptive tradition of German Design Methodology has been challenged by the results of empirical research showing that strict hierarchical approaches can hardly be found in real design ...
PHOTOELASTIC RESEARCH OF THE HERTZIAN STRESS IN HCR-GEARS
Lovrin, N.; Krizan, B.; Franulovic, M. // 2004
This paper deals with the analysis of the Hertzian stress in high transverse contact ratio (HCR) gearing. Based on the realistic load distribution on tooth pairs in mesh and using our own method, the ...
PLATFORMS AND ARCHITECTURES
Hansen, Poul Kyvsgaard; Mikkola, Jullana Hsuan // 2004
This paper discusses the use and usage of the concepts of platforms and architectures. We provide some clarification about the relationship between platform and product architectures. Our on-going ...
PROVIDING EXAMPLES FOR STUDENTS AND DESIGNERS
Sauer, T.; Wiildele, M.; Birkhofer, H. // 2004

REFLECTIONS ABOUT REFLECTIVE PRACTICE
Eder, W. E.; Hubka, V. // 2004
Reflection is an essential characteristic of designing, but only a part of that process. Few attempts have been made to specify what questions should be useful in reflection. This paper brings the ...

SYSTEMATIZATION OF DESIGN PROBLEMS BY GRAPH THEORY
Yoshikawa, S.; Minami, M. // 2004
A graph-theory-based systematization method of design problems has been proposed aiming at carrying over obtained engineering knowledge in constructions of large-scale systems. This method focuses ...
TEACHING DESIGN THEORY AND PRACTICE: A PARTICIPATORY JOURNEY
Loi, D. // 2004

Birkhofer, H. // 2004
The paper addresses the gap between the expectations of designers working in a competitive industrial environment and the outcome of design research focusing on specific, scientifically interesting ...
Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
