It is widely accepted that no amount of robust optimization at the detailed design level can succeed if the design concept itself is flawed (does not satisfy all functional requirements). The author has specifically focused on DFSS deployment in his company in the area of concept generation. Integration of Axiomatic Design has been the most critical element of this improvement. This paper descr...

A unified view of the Information System (IS) design is essential for dealing with complexity. However, literature proposes many denominations, depending on layer, methodology, framework, or tool. This multitude approaches does not allow a holistic system. Besides, in Systems, search good practices still relevant issue. subset Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams chosen to create broad IS. ...

This paper proposes a formal definition of design problem using the axiomatic theory of design modeling. Based on the concept of product system and an informal description of design problem, a design problem is formulated into three parts: environment, structural requirements, as well as performance requirements. On the basis of this formulation, both structural requirements and performance req...

Energy Sustainability has been addressed through advancing technology efficiency, which may increase the impact of use natural resources. However, in efficiency makes services cheaper, causes a rebound effect, direct or indirect, on energy consumption and materials. Moreover, popular concept recycling seems insufficient to reduce critical raw materials provide services. From perspective Earth’s...

In this paper, an axiomatic theory is established for studying design. Using this theory, a formal model of design is derived to represent the syntactic structure of hierarchical evolving design objects and the dynamic design process. The axiomatic theory can be used by design theorists and computer scientists as a formal logical tool to model design whereas the derived formal model can be used...

Axiomatic design is investigated as a design methodology for large or complex system design. Particular considerations of system design are described and the suitability of axiomatic design for such considerations is discussed. Then, tools to enable successful application of axiomatic design to systems are developed. The tools are expressed as theorems for axiomatic system design. The first the...
