Design Education in the Information Age
Broadbent, J.; Cross, N. // 2002
We examine changes in design practice during the industrial and information ages from an evolutionary systems perspective. We conclude that: design practice and education have scarcely tapped the ...
Education for Engineering and Designing
Eder, W. E. // 2002
Education in engineering can usefully be structured according to the theory of technical systems. Considerations of the didactics and pedagogics of educating (teaching and learning) are discussed. ...
Energy Losses Due to Friction in Gears
Palaghian, L.; Bucsa, M.; Barsan, I. // 2002
This paper presents some theoretical and experimental results regarding the influence of the friction coefficient upon the energy losses in spur gears and worm gears. Tests have been made on medium ...
From Function to Form Using Physical Reasoning
Žavbi, R.; Hansen, C. T. // 2002
The goal of engineering design is to design a product, which fulfils a required function. The Domain theory and chaining of physical laws (way to synthesise solutions) offer a possibility to propose ...

Operating Bolt Load Calculation in Joints of Complex Elastic Structures
Zupan, S.; Prebil, I. // 2002
An improved method for the calculation of actual operating force on every bolt in the bolted joint has been developed. It is founded on the usage of so called “elasticity” and “stiffness” matrices of ...
Prediction of 3-D Crack Growth in Thin Rim-Gears
Kramberger, J.; Potrc, I.; Flašker, J. // 2002

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.
