This is the second volume of the new conference series Design Computing and Cognition (DCC), successor to the successful series Artificial Intelligence in Design (AID). The conference theme of design computing and cognition recognizes not only the essential relationship between human cognitive processes as models of computation but also how models of computation inspire conceptual realizations of human cognition.

Die Neuauflage des eingefuhrten Fachbuches fur Produktentwicklung, Konstruktion und Industrie-Design stellt das kundenorientierte Design eines technischen Produkts und dessen Benutzbarkeit in den Mittelpunkt. Design in der Produktentwicklung wird hierin integral nach VDI-Richtlinie 2221 behandelt. Der Anwendungsumfang betrifft sowohl Einzelprodukte als auch Produktprogramme und -systeme. Alle Anwendungsfalle werden hinsichtlich der Designanforderungen, der Losungselemente und der Losungsbewertung untersucht. Eine erweiterte Beschreibung erfahren die okologischen Vorgaben fur...

Ein funktionierendes Kostenmanagement ist unerlasslich, um die Wettbewerbsfahigkeit eines Unternehmens zu erhalten. Die meisten Massnahmen des Kostensenkens beschranken sich auf die Organisations- und Fertigungsprozesse. Eine Betrachtung der Kostenbeeinflussbarkeit im Produktentstehungsprozess zeigt jedoch, dass durch die Konstruktion bereits bis zu 80% der Produktkosten festgelegt werden. Entsprechend hoch ist die Effizienz des Kostenmanagements in der Konstruktion. Um das hohe Potential auszuschopfen, welches das kostenbewusste Konstruieren bietet, stehen verschiedene Methoden und...

Das erfolgreiche Standardwerk bringt Lesern Gemeinsamkeiten, aber auch Unterschiede der beiden Werkstoffe Stahl und Gusseisen nahe. Die 4. Auflage bereitet den Stoff in bewahrter Form auf: von den Grundlagen des Gefuges, den Gebrauchs- und Fertigungseigenschaften bis zur Verarbeitung, Warmebehandlung und industriellen Anwendung der genormten und neueren Eisenwerkstoffe. Der Anhang enthalt die Bezeichnungen nach EURO-NORM sowie eine Geschichte des Eisens. Das Werk richtet sich an Ingenieure, Ingenieurstudenten sowie an Werkstoffwissenschaftler."

Structural design sensitivity analysis concerns the relationship between design variables available to the design engineer and structural responses determined by the laws of mechanics. The dependence of response measures such as displacement, stress, strain, natural frequency, buckling load, acoustic response, frequency response, noise-vibration-harshness (NVH), thermo-elastic response, and fatigue life on the material property, sizing, component shape, and configuration design variables is defined through the governing equations of structural mechanics. In this 2-volume set, first- and...

VLSI CAD has greatly benefited from the use of reduced ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) and the clausal representation as a problem of "Boolean Satisfiability" (SAT), e.g. in logic synthesis, verification or design-for-testability. In recent practical applications, BDDs are optimized with respect to new objective functions for design space exploration. The latest trends show a growing number of proposals to fuse the concepts of BDD and SAT.

Advanced BDD Optimization gives a modern presentation of the established as well as of recent concepts. Latest results in BDD optimization...

Optical Microscanners and Microspectrometers using Thermal Bimorph Actuators shows how to design and fabricate optical microsystems using innovative technologies and and original architectures. A barcode scanner, laser projection mirror and a microspectrometer are explained in detail, starting from the system conception, discussing simulations, choice of cleanroom technologies, design, fabrication, device test, packaging all the way to the system assembly.

An advanced microscanning device capable of one- and two-dimensional scanning can be integrated in a compact...

Advances in Design examines recent advances and innovations in product design paradigms, methods, tools and applications. It presents fifty-two selected papers which were presented at the 14^th CIRP International Design Seminar held in May 2004 as well as the invited keynote papers. Dr. Waguih ElMaraghy was the conference Chair and Dr. Hoda ElMaraghy was on the program committee. The International Institution for Production Research (CIRP), founded in 1951, is the top production engineering research college worldwide. The CIRP is subdivided into Scientific and Technical...

Purchasers of manufactured goods demand assurance that the purchased product will perform satisfactorily over its expected life. Warranties play a vitally important role in providing this assurance, in two ways. Firstly, warranty terms can provide a promise of protection in the event of a product failure. Secondly, effective warranty service can assure customer satisfaction in the event of a warranty claim. Successful use of both of these requires proper warranty management.

The authors of Warranty Management and Product Manufacture have developed "Stage-3" warranty...

Human Behaviour in Design addresses important aspects of creative engineering design. The main topics are the interaction between two complementary modalities - "image" and "concept," internal and external components of design thinking, and design strategies - both for individual designers and design teams. The goal is to improve and evaluate tools and methods that support design. Although this book is the outcome of an international workshop held in March 2003, it is more than just a collection of its contributions. The papers are arranged into three main topics:...

This book is devoted to the optimization of product design and manufacturing. It contains selected and carefully composed articles based on presentations given at the IDMME conference held in Montreal, Canada, May 2000. The Authors are all involved in cutting-edge research in their respective fields of specialization.

The integration of manufacturing constraints and their optimization in the design process is becoming more and more widespread in the development of mechanical products or systems. There is a clear industrial need for these kinds of methodologies. Important - but still...
