A Design Science Approach to Analytical Product Design
Frischknecht, Bart; Gonzalez, Rich; Papalambros, Panos; Reid, Tahira // 2009
Product design involves many diverse disciplines and is often treated as an experience-based skill based on an apprenticeship learning process. While this is a valuable approach, it can be greatly ...
A Generic Tool to Study Human Design Activities
Kan, Jeff Wai Tak; Gero, John S. // 2009

The focus of consumer product design is shifting from primarily offering functionality, towards experience and emotion driven product characteristics. At the same time the functioning of products is ...
A Problem Decomposition Method for Conceptual Design
Sarkar,Somwrita; Dong,Andy ; Gero,S.John // 2009
In this paper, based on ndings from situated cognition, we argue that human reasoning is characterized by an ability to dynamically re-organize knowledge available in an experience, and re-construct ...
A Quality Function Deployment Method Pattern Language for EfficientDesign
Rogers, Damian; Salustri, Filippo Arnaldo // 2009
Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is widely used throughout design processes to increase customer satisfaction. However, the method is sometimes not clearly understood and is at times confusing in ...
An Empirical Study of Energy Efficiency of Clothes Dryers
Lee, Jay; Hoeller, Norbert; Rogers, Damian; Musnier, Samuel; Salustri, Filippo Arnaldo // 2009
The domestic clothes dryer is one of the most energy-consumptive appliances in the residential sector, but there has been relatively little work to study its environmental aspects and improve upon ...
An Exploration of the Human Element in Collaboration
Hunter, Matthew; Salustri, Filippo Arnaldo // 2009
In this paper, the authors propose that there is an inconsistency in the understanding of collaboration and of the collaborator because of a contradiction between attitudinal and behavioural ...
Comparing creative behaviours observed when D and D sketch modelling and when using CAD
Musta'amal, Aede Hatib; Norman, Eddie; Hodgson, Tony // 2009
At E&PDE08, the authors presented a paper that demonstrated links between the use of computeraided design (CAD) when designing and a 'creative behaviours model' derived from published research into ...

Boolean Searches
The following examples demonstrate some search strings that use boolean operators:
- design community
Find rows that contain at least one of the two words. - +design +community
Find rows that contain both words. - +design community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but rank rows higher if they also contain “community”. - +design -community
Find rows that contain the word “design” but not “community”. - +design ~community
Find rows that contain the word “design”, but if the row also contains the word “community”, rate it lower than if row does not. - +design +(>community <decisions)
Find rows that contain the words “design” and “community”, or “design” and “decisions” (in any order), but rank “design community” higher than “design decisions” - design*
Find rows that contain words such as “design”, “designs”, “designing”, or “designer”. - "some words"
Find rows that contain the exact phrase “some words” (for example, rows that contain “some words of wisdom” but not “some noise words”). Note that the " characters that enclose the phrase are operator characters that delimit the phrase. They are not the quotation marks that enclose the search string itself.
