People who lie beyond the "standard" model of users often come up against barriers when using fashion products, especially clothing, the design of which ought to give special attention to comfort, security and well-being. The principles of universal design seek to extend the design process for products manufactured in bulk so as to include people who, because of their personal characteristics or physical conditions, are at an extreme end of some dimension of performance, whether this is to do with sight, hearing, reach or manipulation. Ergonomics, a discipline anchored on scientific data, regards human beings as the central focus of its operations and, consequently, offers various forms of support to applying universal design in product development. In this context, this paper sets out a reflection on applying the seven principles of universal design to fashion products and clothing with a view to targeting such principles as recommendations that will guide the early stages of developing these products, and establish strategies for market expansion, thereby increasing the volume of production and reducing prices. Keywords: Ergonomics in fashion, universal design, people with disabilities 1.

Chesler3, Jeffrey Linderoth4, David Williamson Shaffer1 Abstract The ability of future engineering professionals to solve complex real-world problems depends on their design education and training. Because engineers engage with open-ended problems in which there are unknown parameters and multiple competing objectives, they engage in fuzzy decision-making, a method of making decisions that takes into account inherent imprecisions and uncertainties in the real world.

  • Part 3 Design Rationale and Software Architecting
    Part 3 Design Rationale and Software Architecting I. Mistrík Design rationale as it applies to software architecture has become an established area of software engineering research. Design rationale can be defined as an expression of the relationships between a design product (in this case, an architecture), its purpose, the designer’s (architect’s) concep- tualization and the contextual constraints on realizing the purpose [12]. It represents knowledge that provides the answers to questions about a particular design choice or the process followed to make that choice [8]. Software architecture is concerned with the study of the structure of software, including topologies, properties, constituent components and relationships and patterns of interaction and combination [7,14]. A modern definition of software architecture is given by Bass et al. in [2]: “The soft- ware architecture of a program or computing system is the structure or structures of the system, which comprise software elements, the externally visible properties of those elements, and the relationships among them”. The importance of relating design rationale and software architecting has been recognized by many researchers and practitioners [5,14,15]. Design rationale researchers have developed different representation sche- mas, capture methods, repository models, and use cases for recording design decisions. However, most approaches represent only arguments surrounding design decisions [11]; more work remains to be done in repre- senting domain knowledge in terms that are understandable to the domain experts [9]. During the last 10 years it has been recognized that the quality requirements are heavily influenced by the architecture of the system [2,3] and capturing the relationship between architectural design decisions and quality attributes provides an important new role for rationale.

  • On the Functions of Products
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENGINEERING DESIGN, ICED11 15 - 18 AUGUST 2011, TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF DENMARK ON THE FUNCTIONS OF PRODUCTS M. Aurisicchio1, N.L. Eng1, J.C. Ortíz Nicolás1, P.R.N. Childs1, R.H. Bracewell2 (1) Imperial College London, Mechanical Engineering Department, Design Engineering Group. (2) University of Cambridge, Engineering Department, Engineering Design Centre. ABSTRACT Understanding the performance and manner of functioning of existing products is at the base of new product development activities. In engineering design the term function is generally used to refer to the technical actions performed by a product. However, products accomplish a wider range of goals. This research explores the opportunity to describe and model, through the concept of function, product actions across four dimensions including technical, aesthetic, social and economic. The research demonstrates that non-technical functions can be represented through active verbs and nouns and modelled using a method known as the Function Analysis Diagram (FAD). The research argues that when technical, aesthetic, social and economic perspectives on product development are considered as different types of function, stakeholders have a common language to communicate which can benefit design collaboration. Keywords: Product design; Product function; Function analysis; Function Analysis Diagram 1 INTRODUCTION Every year new products are designed, manufactured and launched in the market. The reasons why consumers buy and own products are linked to the fulfilment of needs or goals. Consumer behaviour is studied to understand these reasons and to inform product development. From an engineering perspective these reasons are associated with the performance of technical actions which are generally referred to as product functions.

Construction projects exhibit several dimensions of complexity, including building system complexity, site complexity, and project complexity. It was shown that project teams could work more effectively if these complexities are identified and an appropriate mechanism for integration is implemented. The study began with the identification of the specific dimensions of complexity that are relevant to design and construction, and the definition of integration mechanisms that can be used by project teams. It was expected that high complexity requires high levels of integration, except when familiarity and high levels of trust exist within the project team.
