PLM and early stages collaboration in interactive design, a case study in the glass industry

TL;DR: The boundaries of the early stages of design are defined, designer collaboration is analyzed, and the knowledge necessary for efficient collaboration is described, to be integrated in a continuum with other existing digital design tools.

Design of components for schedulability

TL;DR: Five design rules aimed at improving schedulability of products and parts are formulated and the impact of each design rule on the quality of the schedules is measured with the makespan and average machine utilization.

Design Theories, Models and Their Testing: On the Scientific Status of Design Research

TL;DR: It is argued that testing design theories and models by falsification can improve the scientific status of design research and address two deficiencies: a lack of generally accepted and efficient research methods for testing design theory and models, and a fragmentation in separate research strands.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design method for systematic safety integration

TL;DR: A structured method is proposed for systematic safety requirements definition through experience feedbacks and technical solutions analysis and the application to the agricultural hitching system, the three-point hitch, is developed.
Dissertation

Evolutionary Multi-Objective Decision Support Systems for Conceptual Design

TL;DR: In this thesis the problem of conceptual engineering design and the possible use of adaptive search techniques and other machine based methods therein are investigated and the issue of complexity and sensitivity is addressed.
