ENB205 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Product Liability, Materials Science, Bar Chart
Document Summary
The set of decision making process and activities used to determine the form of an object given the functions desired by the customer. Utilize knowledge and methods from the basic sciences, mathematics and engineering to predict or simulate the performance of each alternative before it is built, avoiding time and expenses. Generally these factors do no exist seperately, they must be considered collectively to ensure the synthesis of several knowledge areas. Principles of universal design development of product for people with different abilities and ages. System approach to design interaction of humans with machines: styling and ergonomics. Design of things and systems of a mechanical nature: It utilises mathematics, material science, mechanics, and thermal and fluid science. Clearly define the problem specifications should be written. Specifications are input and output quantities, characteristics and dimensions of the space, limitations of these: Speed, feeds, temperature, max range, expected variation, dimensional and weight limitations.
