Invigorating Industrial Design Materials and Manufacturing Education

Risk estimation for industrial safety in raw materials manufacturing

By constructing a risk model for estimating the risks involved in industrial safety, and by investigating and analyzing the obtained results, areas that should be considered as priorities in risk reduction are clarified. In the present study, the risks involved in industrial safety are classified into five categories: fire and/or explosion, strong winds, flooding, lightning, and earthquake. An ...

Classifications and Properties of Materials for Chairside Computer-Aided Design/Computer-Aided Manufacturing Dentistry: A Review

Background and Aim: Chairside computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems have become considerably more accurate, reliable, efficient, fast, and prevalent since 1985 when CEREC was introduced. The inceptive restorative material option for chairside CAD/CAM restorations was limited to ceramic blocks. Today, restorative material options have been multiplied and include me...

Design and Manufacturing Curriculum in Industrial Engineering at Mercer University

This paper presents an overview of design and manufacturing curriculum in effect at Mercer School of Engineering for the undergraduate students in Industrial Engineering. There is a need to incorporate changes in the design and manufacturing curriculum to meet the ABET requirements of EC 2000 (“a” through “k”). The work in progress, the future plan for changes, a sample lab experiment in roboti...

Developing Industrial Design Education: A British perspective

After establishing the context of design and design education in the UK, the authors describe emerging themes in industrial-design education. These themes can be classified into three types. The first theme involves enabling students to utilize a variety of research approaches at different levels. The design process has always involved elements of researching, but the evidence based design appr...
