During an engineering design process, designers create sequences of product models by switching between product models with different purposes. To enable an efficient use of these product models, researchers are required to anticipate the …
The rationality of product module partition is crucial to the success of modular design. The correlations between components of complex products are complex, increasing the difficulty of module partition. Thus, many existing methods of module …

In this paper, we address the issue of whether to optimize or satisfice in model-based engineering design. When dealing with operations research problems in the context of engineering design, one may encounter (i) nonlinear, nonconvex objectives …
Changes and modifications to existing products, known as engineering changes (EC), are common in complex product development. They require appropriate implementation planning and supervision to mitigate the economic downsides due to complexity.

Increasing product diversity, rising performance and reliability demands, and industry competitiveness are some of the many reasons that increase the need of more complex product designs in almost all sectors. The complexity of parts increases …
Perfectionism is a personality trait associated with a desire for flawlessness, high-standard expectations and criticism of the self and others. As engineering design seeks to address more wicked problems that move beyond technical considerations …
The success of a product in the market is largely defined by the quality of design decisions made during the early stages of development. The product design requires designers to balance multiple objectives such as functionality, cost, and user …
Industry 4.0 (i4.0) is central to advanced manufacturing. Building on novel digital technologies, it enables smart and flexible manufacturing with systems connected across company boundaries and product lifecycle phases. Despite its benefits, the …
