Conceptual design of creep testing rig for full-scale cross arm using TRIZ-Morphological chart-analytic network process technique

TL;DR: In this paper, the development of a creep testing rig for a full-scale cross arm using the integration of theory of inventive problem solving (TRIZ), morphological chart, and analytic network process (ANP) is discussed.

Fuzzy Ranking for Concept Evaluation in Configuration Design for Mass Customization

TL;DR: A more rigorous procedure for determining subjective customer preferences, Saaty's analytic hierarchy process, is applied to the fuzzy analysis and a fuzzy ranking methodology for concept evaluation is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A heuristic-based approach to conceptual design

TL;DR: A general best first heuristic algorithm is adapted to operate on a model of conceptual design postulated in this paper, and this product conceptualization approach is demonstrated to strategically guide designers in the exploration of design concepts.

Interactive evolutionary solution synthesis in fuzzy set-based preliminary engineering design

TL;DR: This approach combines an agent-based hierarchical design representation, set-based design generation, fuzzy design trade-off strategy and interactive design adaptation into evolutionary synthesis to gradually refine and reduce the search space while maintaining solution diversity to accommodate future changes.

Data-informed inverse design by product usage information: a review, framework and outlook

TL;DR: This paper provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art methods and practice reported in the literature dealing with many different aspects of data-informed inverse design by reviewing the origins and common practice of inverse problems in engineering design.
