ECO DESIGN: MAKE IT HAPPEN BY AN ENVIRONMENTAL INNOVATIVE PRODUCT DESIGN

Rosemann, B.; Meerkamm, H. // 2004
The classical way of performing eco design – take a product, perform a weak point analysis (i.e. an LCA) and redesign the existing products focusing the found weak points – results in a small change ...

EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT APPLICATION OF ECO-QFD

Ernzer, M.; Sakao, T.; Mattheiß, C. // 2004

Lustig, R.; Hochmuth, R.; Meerkamm, H. // 2004
The analysis of fabrication deviations and elastic deformations gains more and more in importance. Presently no reliable approach of this combined simulation of both factors is available. By the ...

ENGINEERING DESIGN PROBLEM IN A CO-EVOLUTIONARY MODEL OF THE DESIGN PROCESS

Lonchampt, P.; Prudhomme, G.; Brissaud, D. // 2004
While traditional stage-based models of the design process assume it starts with a design problem definition that prescribes downstream activities, another approach has been emerging, that considers ...

ENGINEERING DESIGN USING BIOLOGICAL PRINCIPLES

Lindemann, U.; Gramann, J. // 2004
Nowadays “bionics” is a well known word, the problem is that there are different definitions of bionics. We wanted to analyse biological principles or use findings of biology to improve the design of ...

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.
