This paper presents a study of the evaluation phase of a project that developed a new method to support parametric and associative computer-aided design, PARAMASS, in an automotive design context as ...
DEVELOPMENT OF ENGINEERING KNOWLEDGE MODELS TO ACHIEVE PRODUCT INNOVATION
Karlsson, Anna; Torlind, Peter // 2011
To pursue understanding of governing principles, observations of phenomena and simulation of processes instead of relying purely on trial-and-error, is becoming more and more important in product ...
Development of Functional Mock-Ups for Engineering Design Education
Beckmann, Gregor; Krause, Dieter // 2011
Engineering design courses are an essential part of the curricula of the Mechanical Engineering studies in Germany. Objective is the introduction of students to design, the dimensioning and ...
DEVELOPMENT OF MODULAR PRODUCTS UNDER CONSIDERATION OF LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN
Gumpinger, Thomas; Krause, Dieter // 2011
Whether it is the reduction of complexity during development or the individual configuration for the consumer, modular products do offer many benefits throughout their product lifecycle. Hence it is ...
Development of the Systematic Grading Procedure
Berglund, Anders; Tretten, Phillip // 2011
In Design education there is a challenge in grading students when the task is based upon the student’s ability to show applied knowledge. Thus the grading criteria needs to be and is most often ...

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.
