APPLYING TRENDS TO DESIGN: A THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
Muir, Wood A. P.; Moultrie, J.; Eckert, C. M. // 2008
When technology and functionality are not enough to differentiate a product from its competitors, the product’s visual appearance becomes a major driver of consumer preference. But how do designers ...
CHANGING ENERGY CONSUMPTION BEHAVIOUR THROUGH SUSTAINABLE PRODUCT DESIGN
Tang, T.; Bhamra, T. // 2008
Energy consumption during the use phase of electrical products’ lifecycle has a significant environmental impact, mainly determined by the user behaviour. Product designers are in a position to ...

CONCEPTUAL DESIGN OF INDUSTRIAL PRODUCT SERVICE SYSTEMS (IPSS) BASED ON THE EXTENDED HETEROGENEOUS MODELLING APPROACH
Welp, E. G.; Sadek, T. // 2008
Industrial Product-Service Systems (IPSS) are proposed as a solution to meet individual customer requirements. Thereby, high-investment capital goods are offered in customized business models which ...
CONCEPTUALISATION OF PRODUCT/SERVICE-SYSTEMS THROUGH STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS
Tan, A.; Andreasen, M. M.; Matzen, D. // 2008
Many manufacturers today are shifting from a product to service-orientation, where instead of the product, the activity and knowledge associated with the use is considered to be more valuable to the ...
DIGITAL RECONSTRUCTION OF A HUMAN SKULL
Etxaniz, O.; Minguez, R.; Arias, A.; Barrenetxea, L.; Solaberrieta, E. // 2008
This paper describes the process to obtain a high quality digital model of a human skull, by reverse engineering techniques. This development was made in the Product Design Laboratory (PDL), in the ...
ECO-DESIGN DIRECTIONS: EVOLUTIONS OF THE AESTHETIC DIMENSION
La Rocca, F. // 2008
The aim of the paper is to take into consideration the diverse approaches to the issue of sustainable design, focusing in particular on some of the major problems rising from the relation of the ...
Ergonomic Adaptation of Musical Materials Project: First Experience Feedbacks of a Two-Year Multidisciplinary Human Experience of Mechanical Engineering Students

ERROR IN ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN PROCESS: TOWARDS A COGNITIVE MODEL
Safin, S.; Leclercq, P.; Blavier, A. // 2008
In architectural design process, the human error has a particular status. The later it is detected, the more expensive it is. Moreover, some errors can not be detected given the current state of the ...

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.
