The engineering degree has been brokendown in manageable packages which we INESPAESPAManageable for the STUDENTSand for the TEACHERINCIINCIUnfortunately, you will see that thisrepresent the professional divisions ofmost universities and indeed INDUSTRY. 2001 Miguel A. Torres

TOTAL DESIGNTotal Design is a systematic methodology to achieveintegration of the technological as well as nontechnological subjects material with the goal ofcreating successful products and processes.CustomerProductTOTAL DESIGN is distinguish from “partial design” in whichTOTAL DESIGN requires the input from people of manydisciplines, both engineering and non-engineering, in a mixthat is almost unique to the product under consideration. 2001 Miguel A. Torres

“To be successful, you have to be systematic andthorough, paying meticulous attention to detail fromthe beginning to the end of the design activity.” 2001 Miguel A. Torres

Characteristics of the Product DesignSpecification (PDS): PDSThe PDS is the fundamental control mechanism thatallows this success to manifest itself.The PDS must be comprehensive and unambiguous.At the end of the design process the product must bebalanced with the PDS.Poor PDS leads to poor design that will fail in themarket.Good PDS does not guarantee good design but makethe goal more attainable.PDS set the design in context which are acomprehensive set of constrains. 2001 Miguel A. Torres

The Contents of a PDS: PerformanceWebster’s Dictionaryper per forfor mance mance actionb:b:somethingaccomplished:something faclaim,promise,the fulfillment of a claim, a: the action of representing a character in a eperformance4a:theabilitytoperform:EFFICIENCY4a: the ability to perform: chanismmechanismperformsperforms eactingtostimuli:BEHAVIORthe manner of reacting to stimuli: BEHAVIOR6:6:linguisticlinguisticbehaviorbehavior- -comparecompareCOMPETENCECOMPETENCE 33- -perperforformamatotoryry \-me-,\-me-,totor r-e-e, ,-,-,totor-\r-\adjadj“Performance should be fully defined, e.g., how fast, how slow, how often,continuously vs. discontinuous, energy requirements- electrical, hydraulicvs. pneumatic, tolerances, etc.” 2001 Miguel A. Torres

0 tolerance- “A common failing in specifying performanceis to ask for the ultimate, rather than which isobtainable from economical point of view.” 2001 Miguel A. Torres

The Contents of a PDS: Environment temperature rangepressure range (altitude)humidityshock loading (gravity forces)dirt or dust - how dirty? - howclean?corrosion from fluids - type of fluidor chemicalnoise leversinsectsvibrationtype of labor or person who willuse the equipment - likely degreeof abuse?any unforeseen hazards tocustomer, user or the environment- for example inclusion of CFCs? 2001 Miguel A. Torres

The Contents of a PDS: EnvironmentThese may occur at the following stages: During manufacturing exposure to cutting fluid,solvents, fluxes, acids, etc.During storage - in the plantDuring assembly - assemblyforces, contamination fromsweating hands?During packagingDuring transportationDuring storage - at a wholesale’swarehouseDuring displayDuring use 2001 Miguel A. Torres

PDS: Guide lines PDSThe PDS is a control document.It is a use document.Never write a PDS in an essay format.From the beginning, try to quantifyparameters.Always date the document and to anissue number.Clearly document amendments. 2001 Miguel A. Torres

Conceptual DesignMarket It is the phase of design primarilyconcerned with the generation of solutionsto meet the stated need, i.e., the PDS.SpecificationsConceptual DesignDetail DesignManufacturingConceptual Design is a “Synthesis” 2001 Miguel A. TorresSales

Conceptual DesignMarketConceptual Design has two majorcomponents:1. The generation of solutions to meet thestated need, i.e., the PDS.2. The evaluation of these solutions to selectthe one that is must suited to match the need.SpecificationsConceptual DesignDetail DesignManufacturingSales 2001 Miguel A. Torres

Conceptual Design1. The generation of solutions to meet the PDS.In order to generate solutions or ideas to solve a givendesign problem you must be “creative”Idea!!! 2001 Miguel A. Torres

Conceptual Design1. The generation of solutions to meet the PDS.Yes but how do I become “creative”?Everybody is creative. All we need to do iswatch out for “Mental Blocks” 2001 Miguel A. Torres?

Conceptual DesignIdea Generation: More TipsUse the following techniques:1. Brainstorming2. Analogies3. Combinations 2001 Miguel A. Torres

Conceptual DesignAn idea is not an idea if you cannot communicate it. 3D Sketching Diagrams Circuit Diagrams Block Diagrams World Description Ladder-logic diagrams Mathematical Expressions Analytical DrawingsNote: Concepts or ideas must be titled, numbered andionized so they can be cross referenced later. 2001 Miguel A. Torres

Conceptual DesignConcepts generated at this phase should never bearbitrarily discarded as not been good. Particularlybecause a third party does not like them.“Gut-feeling” design is out of the question. 2001 Miguel A. Torres

To effectively evaluate a concept, an agreedset of criteria is needed.This criteria comes from thePDS. This is carried out in groups(never along) It should be written down. 2001 Miguel A. Torres
