The rationale of product platform-based product development has been well recognized for the implementation of mass customization. A product platform refers to the conceptual structure and logical organization of product families from both customer and technical viewpoints. This paper introduces graph grammar formalisms to the representation of product platform. The concepts of multi-pointed hy...

The most common types of rail defects on modern railway lines occur due to the rolling contact fatigue steel. One methods slow down development these is application new steel grades with increased hardness in curves larger radii and other characteristic track sections. Serbian standard SRPS EN 13674-1:2017 - Railway applications Track Rails Part 1: Vignole rails 46 kg/m above comprises nine per...

House Of Quality (HOQ) is one of the matrices of an iterative process called Quality Function Deployment (QFD). it is the nerve center that drives the entire QFD process. The House of Quality Matrix is the most recognized and widely used tool for new product design. It translates customer requirements, based on marketing research and benchmarking data, into an appropriate number of engineering ...

Product search engines are essentially unchanged since the inception of online shopping, providing basic browsing by category and “advanced” keyword search. This paper presents a user-oriented product search method based on consumer values and lifestyles that correspond to user purchasing criteria rather than technical specifications. The technique is suited to relatively infrequent purchases w...

Software Quality assurance is an important aspect of product development. Unlike the other engineering disciplines, software quality assurance does not have control [1]. The main objectives of SQA are acceptable levels of confidence, conformance to functional and technical requirements. It assures the acceptable levels of scheduling and budget requirements. This paper describes quality aspects ...

Abstract Currently, engineers need to manually analyse requirement specifications for determining parameters create geometries in generative engineering. This analysis is time-consuming, error-prone and causes high costs. Generative engineering tools (e.g. Synera) cannot interpret natural language requirements directly. The be formalised a machine-readable format. AI algorithms have the potenti...
