A QFD-centred design methodology for environmentally conscious product design
As our society gets more environmentally conscious, manufacturers must incorporate “environmental qualities” into products. This paper proposes a general design methodology to support effectively environmentally consciousness design of products. The methodology employs three tools; LCA (Life Cycle Assessment), QFDE (Quality Function Deployment for Environment), and TRIZ (Theory of Inventive Pro...
متن کاملAffordances and Product Design to Support Environmentally Conscious Behavior
We developed an affordance-based methodology to support environmentally conscious behavior (ECB) that conserves resources such as materials, energy, etc. While studying concepts that aim to support ECB, we noted that characteristics of products that enable ECB tend to be more accurately described as affordances than functions. Therefore, we became interested in affordances, and specifically how...
متن کاملConstructionist Learning for Environmentally Responsible Product Design
Wayne State University, Penn State University, and Oregon State University are developing a distributed cyberlearning environment to facilitate the consideration of different human controlled/initiated impacts on the natural environment through team-based and personalized design activities. This interactive learning environment, Constructionism in Learning: Sustainable Life Cycle Engineering (C...
متن کاملA Multiscale Bayesian Framework for Environmentally Conscious Process Design
Improving the sustainability of chemical processes requires techniques for including life cycle environmental considerations in product and process design. Data for life cycle assessment are usually available at different spatial resolutions such as, the economy, supply chain and equipment. These data vary in their degree of completeness in capturing the life cycle, and their level of uncertain...
متن کاملBeyond Product Design – User Centred Design Methods for Vehicle Designers
A crucial part of the practical application of user-centred design depends on the introduction of user-centred design principles into mainstream design education so that they can be taken forward by the next generation of designers into industry. However, user-centred design teaching is currently under-represented in design education as a whole, and vehicle design in particular. This paper look...
