RISComputations with Imprecise Parameters in Engineering Design: Background and Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A technique to perform design calculations on imprecise representations of parameters has been developed and is presented. The level of imprecision in the description of design elements is ...
A Form Tolerancing Theory Using Fractals and Wavelets
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tolerancing is a crucial problem for mechanical designers, as it has quality and cost implications on product design. Research in tolerancing has addressed specific areas of the problem, but ...
Design by Analogy: A Study of the WordTree Method for Problem Re-Representation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a novel approach, referred to as the WordTree design-by-analogy method, for identifying distant-domain analogies as part of the ideation process. The WordTree method derives ...
A Study of Design Fixation, Its Mitigation and Perception in Engineering Design Faculty
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The bridge between engineering design and cognitive science research is critical to understand the effectiveness of design methods as implemented by human designers. The study reported in this ...
An Experimental Study of Group Idea Generation Techniques: Understanding the Roles of Idea Representation and Viewing Methods
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Advances in innovation processes are critically important as economic and business landscapes evolve. There are many concept generation techniques that can assist a designer in the initial phases ...
