Design Synthesis Integrated Product and Manufacturing System Design

Design Synthesis Integrated Product and Manufacturing System Design

The biggest challenge in any marketplace is uncertainty. The major changes taking place in world economies politics and demographics has raised market uncertainty to its highest level in the past 50 years. However with new markets opening up in emerging and developing economies the opportunities have never been better. To compete in this challenging atmosphere product design/redesign and manufacturing must be integrated to produce better quality products faster and cheaper. Design Synthesis: Integrated Product and Manufacturing System Design provides a conceptual framework and methodologies to do just that. The book explains how to integrate innovative product design with the design of a batch manufacturing system. It covers the technical and social aspects of integration presents research and best practices and embeds integration within a framework of sustainable development. It covers the two methods for achieving design synthesis: integration and harmonisation. Product manufacturing system and social system architectures are integrated (united or combined to form a whole that is greater than the sum of the parts). The concurrent processes to design the architectures are harmonised (made compatible or coincident with one another). Wide in scope the book supplies a multi-disciplinary perspective and an extensive discussion on how to maintain integrity during the design process. The authors present research and practices that are difficult or almost impossible to find. They describe the different types of system lifecycles and include guidelines on how to select the appropriate lifecycle for a specific design situation. | Design Synthesis Integrated Product and Manufacturing System Design

Structural Design from First Principles

Structural Design from First Principles

This enlightening textbook for undergraduates on civil engineering degree courses explains structural design from its mechanical principles showing the speed and simplicity of effective design from first principles. This text presents good approximate solutions to complex design problems such as Wembley-Arch type structures the design of thin-walled structures and long-span box girder bridges. Other more code-based textbooks concentrate on relatively simple member design and avoid some of the most interesting design problems because code compliant solutions are complex. Yet these problems can be addressed by relatively manageable techniques. The methods outlined here enable quick early stage ball-park design solutions to be considered and are also useful for checking finite element analysis solutions to complex problems. The conventions used in the book are in accordance with the Eurocodes especially where they provide convenient solutions that can be easily understood by students. Many of the topics such as composite beam design are straight applications of Eurocodes but with the underlying theory fully explained. The techniques are illustrated through a series of worked examples which develop in complexity with the more advanced questions forming extended exam type questions. A comprehensive range of fully worked tutorial questions are provided at the end of each section for students to practice in preparation for closed book exams. | Structural Design from First Principles
