RISLooking Beyond Self-Reported Cognitive Load: Comparing Pupil Diameter Against Self-Reported Cognitive Load in Design Tasks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: As designers experience greater mental demands from the increased complexity of new design tools and methods, it is important to understand designers' cognitive load when performing design tasks. Several researchers have ...
Not Good Enough? Exploring Relationships Between Novice Designers’ Trait Empathy, Their Beliefs, Attitudes, and Intentions Toward Sustainability, and the Self-Evaluated Sustainability of Their Solutions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Designers’ empathy plays an important role in supporting socially conscious design. Although widely studied in engineering design, a majority of the research on empathy focuses on designers’ ability to empathize with primary ...
Feeling the Distance: Exploring Novice Student Designers' Perceptions of the Psychological Distance and Empathic Response Toward Variations of a Sustainable Design Problem
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Prior research suggests novice designers find it challenging to integrate social context into the engineering design process. This challenge could be particularly pronounced in sustainable design tasks because the effects ...
Teaching Design Freedom: Understanding the Effects of Variations in Design for Additive Manufacturing Education on Students’ Creativity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) processes offer unique capabilities (i.e., opportunities) yet inherent limitations (i.e., restrictions) due to the layer-by-layer fabrication of parts. Despite the newfound design freedom and ...
Rapid Response! Investigating the Effects of Problem Definition on the Characteristics of Additively Manufactured Solutions for COVID-19
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Designers from around the world have proposed numerous engineering design solutions for problems related to the COVID-19 pandemic, many of which leverage the rapid prototyping and manufacturing capabilities of additive ...
Exploring the Effects of Additive Manufacturing Education on Students' Engineering Design Process and its Outcomes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Research in additive manufacturing (AM) has increased the use of AM in many industries, resulting in a commensurate need for a workforce skilled in AM. In order to meet this need, educational institutions have undertaken ...
Complex Solutions for Complex Problems? Exploring the Role of Design Task Choice on Learning, Design for Additive Manufacturing Use, and Creativity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The integration of additive manufacturing (AM) processes in many industries has led to the need for AM education and training, particularly on design for AM (DfAM). To meet this growing need, several academic institutions ...
Favoring Complexity: A Mixed Methods Exploration of Factors That Influence Concept Selection When Designing for Additive Manufacturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The capabilities of additive manufacturing (AM) open up designers’ solution space and enable them to build designs previously impossible through traditional manufacturing (TM). To leverage this design freedom, designers ...
But Will It Build? Assessing Student Engineering Designers’ Use of Design for Additive Manufacturing Considerations in Design Outcomes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) enables engineers to improve the functionality and performance of their designs by adding complexity at little to no additional cost. However, AM processes also exhibit certain unique limitations, ...
