Aim: To understand life cycle and product life thinking. Understand the role of the product design for the fitting to the product life systems and achievement of good product life perspectives. To demonstrate an ability to formulate specifications, synthesize and evaluate design proposals related to given product life systems. To understand the tools for life cycle design (DFX) and principles for DFX.
|
Contents: The following aspects of life cycle design are considered: - Life cycle, recycling, stockholders, resource and ecological specifications, life cycle - quality, whole life costs. - Product life systems, "the meeting", relational properties, the role of the human
- operator. - Modelling of the product and the product life cycle, computer modelling. - The score model, Integrated Product Development, Life Cycle Engineering, - Concurrent Engineering. - The importance of the product concept, explicit life phase concepts. - Modelling the meetings, "universal virtues", simulation. - Product modelling, Product Data Management, Life cycle databases, Design History, - documentation. - The structure and the content of the DFX-tools, the course of DFX.
The exercise part of the course consists of small exercises concerning specific methods. A more substantial project concerning life cycle design may be arranged, see course 72401 Engineering Design Project.
