Document Summary
Apsc 100 introduction to the engineering design process. Stakeholder analysis: needs: spoken and unspoken. Work in the early stages of the design process is inexpensive, but it commits future spending. What the stakeholder wants from the project. Benefits: express stakeholder interests and wishes, use the (cid:862)la(cid:374)guage of the stakeholde(cid:396)(cid:863) Limitations: vague/ imprecise, might contradict each other, subjective. Re(cid:395)ui(cid:396)e(cid:373)e(cid:374)ts: (cid:862)must-haves(cid:863: either pass or fail, must satisfy all requirements. Objectives: also called evaluation criteria, performance levels, satisfaction levels.

Describe the goals of the generate potential solutions stage of the design process. List the guidelines for effective concept generation and explain why each is important. Describe the c-sketch process for concept generation. Goal: generate as many potential solutions to our design problem as possible. Do not evaluate ideas yet that will come later: focus on what will make ideas work.
