While Computer Aided Design (CAD) has made significant progress since its inception, CAD tools are still used primarily for design documentation rather than as active partners in the design process. ...
Exploring the Potential of Applying a Platform Formulation at Supplier Level - the Case of Volvo Aero Corporation
Högman, Ulf; Bergsjö, Dag; Anemo, Marcus; Persson, Henrik // 2009
The utilization of a platform strategy has become a competitive priority in many industries, enhancing "economies of scale" [1]. Few studies have, however, been made investigating the ...
Exploring the Reflective and Utilitarian Benefits of Product Attachment
Maclachlan, Mary; Harrison, David; Wood, Bruce // 2009
With heightened environmental concern and the recent global economic crisis a new challenge has emerged for design; to take a more responsible role and tackle sustainability more innovatively. Not ...
Exploring the Role of Social Learning on Team Mental Models
Singh,Vishal; Dong,Andy; Gero,S.John // 2009
This paper presents a computational model developed to study the role of different modes of social learning on the formation of team mental models (TMM). In this model, the TMM is formed over time as ...

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.
