Supporting `Design for Re-use' with Modular Design

TL;DR: This study explores the capabilities of modular design principles to provide improved support for the engineering design reuse concept and identifies the correlations between modular design and `reuse' with the aim of identifying its potential to aid the little-supported process of design for reuse.

Selecting methods for life cycle design based on the needs of a company

M. Ernzer, +1 more
TL;DR: The research approach presented is intended to initiate discussions on the topic of method selection for life cycle design and will be detailed and verified in future research.

Distributed collaborative design and manufacture in the cloud — motivation, infrastructure, and education

TL;DR: The ideas of mass collaboration, distributed design, and distributed manufacturing fueled by the Internet are now realizable methodologies for the next generation of product design and manufacture, which can encompass the entire spectrum of product lifecycle that revolves around the product manufacturing process.
