A method for systematic elaboration of research phenomena in design research
Horvath, Imre // 2017
The mission of design research is to discover and investigate not or partially known phenomena, and to formulate statements concerning their manifestations and relationships with other phenomena. ...
A method for the tolerance analysis of bearing seats for cylindrical roller bearings in respect to operating clearance and fatigue life
Aschenbrenner, Alexander; Wartzack, Sandro // 2017
Roller bearings are used in a vast variety of mechanical applications and are often highly stressed machine elements. Therefore the fatigue life of roller bearings can determine the reliability and ...
Agile development and the constraints of physicality: A network theory-based cause-and-effect analysis
Schmidt, Tobias Sebastian; Chahin, Abdo; Kößler, Johannes; Paetzold, Kristin // 2017
Not only software development, but also many companies developing physical products (not purely software) face high uncertainties and dynamics which raises the need for agile practices well-proven in ...
An approach to handle uncertainty during the process of product modelling
Würtenberger, Jan; Lotz, Julian; Freund, Tillmann; Kirchner, Eckhard // 2017
Product models are the results of product modelling and are used for decision making during the development process. They are based on assumptions by the designer, which are made under a lack of ...
An exploratory study into the impact of new digital design and manufacturing tools on the design process
Corsini, Lucia; Moultrie, James // 2017
The study aims to understand the impact of new digital design and manufacturing tools on the design process. Digital manufacturing technologies are having far reaching impacts on design, however ...
Applying lean thinking to risk management in product development
Willumsen, Pelle; Oehmen, Josef; Rossi, Monica; Welo, Torgeir // 2017
This paper re-conceptualizes risk management (RM) in product development (PD) through a lean thinking perspective. Arguably, risk management in PD projects became a victim of its own success. It is ...
Breakthrough technologies: principle feasibility debates
Hein, Andreas Makoto; Jankovic, Marija; Condat, Hélčne // 2017
Designing new technologies involves creating something that did not exist before. In particular, designing technologies with a low degree of maturity usually involves an assessment of its feasibility ...
Challenges for integrating sustainability in risk management – current state of research
Schulte, Jesko; Hallstedt, Sophie // 2017
Numerous examples have shown how environmental and social issues can affect companies to an existential level. In fact, today’s most urgent business risks, e.g. brand value, legislative change, ...
Change propagation management by active batching
Oh, Gyesik; Hong, Yoo S. // 2017
Incremental design causes changes to an existing product by modifying or adding sub-systems. In the perspective of development process management, changes prolong duration and raise cost with ...
Creativity as a way to innovate successfully
Guenther, Agnes; Eisenbart, Boris; Dong, Andy // 2017

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.
