Das vorliegende Fachbuch wendet sich an Ingenieure in Entwicklung, Berechnung und Versuch sowie an Forscher, Hochschullehrer und Doktoranden. Es behandelt die phanomenologischen, theoretischen und versuchstechnischen Grundlagen der Gestaltung, Dimensionierung und Optimierung ermudungsfester Bauteile. Die daraus entwickelten rechnerischen Verfahren des Festigkeitsnachweises und der Lebensdauerprognose werden an konkreten Beispielen erlautert, darunter die FKM-Richtlinie fur Maschinenbauteile, der Eurocode fur Bauten aus Stahl und Aluminium sowie der ASME-Code fur Druckbehalter.

Engineers and scientists often need to sell an innovative idea for a new product or a new product improvement to top management. Sometimes their tendency is to focus on the "WOW " of the new technology at the expense of making a convincing business case. When the new technology represents a large cost reduction, there will be much less of a problem in convincing management to approve the project if the investment level is acceptable. The major rub comes when the new feature or technology is an improvement in customer value that also generates an increase in cost. This makes the sell...

Designing Inclusive Futures reflects the need to explore, in a coherent way, the issues and practicalities that lie behind design that is intended to extend our active future lives. This encompasses design for inclusion in daily life at home but also extends to the workplace and for products within these contexts. For example, given trends in employment sector growth, skills requirements, labour supply and demographic change, there is a need to predict the critical areas where individual capabilities are mismatched with the physical, social and organisational demands of work. This...

Life cycle design is understood as "to develop" (to plan, to calculate, to define, to draw) a holistic concept for the entire life cycle of a product." Life cycle design means a one time planning during the concept phase of a product in which the pathway of a product over the entire life cycle is determined. So e.g. the planning of possible services for a product during its utilization phase, the way of material recycling, how and which parts can be reused, how the logistics for recycling will be organised or how the product can be used afterwards. So it is a conceptual pre-design of all...

A major thrust and contribution of Dr Owen Richmond's research career has been to integrate Mechanics, Materials, Processing and Design, and hence the title of the proceedings. Six major areas are emphasized in this book: Crystal imperfections; Polycrystals and properties; Constitutive modeling; Plasticity and failure; Metal forming and casting processes; Process and product design.

New ideas for new products are not enough for creating successful markets: Product Innovation means to manage the whole chain from invention to new and best selling products in market. This innovation roadmap has to be carefully and systematically planned and procured. There are a lot of methods for creativity, market analysis, evaluation, technology forecast, and decision gates available within this book. These methods and tools are brought together and their scopes of application as well as their limitations are shown. The whole tool kit of methods and decision models like market...

Leonardo's Giant Crossbow is one of his least understood drawings. This fascinating book offers the first in-depth account of its likely purpose and its highly resolved design. It presents original research and new discoveries about the giant crossbow.

This book focuses on management of complex system structures in product design. It offers a methodology for analysis, control and optimization of complex structures. It also addresses applicability of domain-spanning problems.

To ensure product reliability, an organization must follow specific practices during the product development process that impact reliability. The second edition of the bestselling Product Reliability, Maintainability, and Supportability Handbook helps professionals identify the shortcomings in the reliability practices of their organizations and empowers them to take actions to overcome them.

The book begins by discussing product effectiveness and its related functions, presents the mathematical theory for reliability, and introduces statistical...
