Synopsis

This book focuses on the process of mechanical design. It defines terms basic to studying the design process, and discusses human interface with mechanical products. Techniques are presented to aid in: problem understanding (Quality Function Development), planning, concept generation (function decomposition, morphologies), concept evaluation (technology assessment, Pugh's method), product generation (concurrent design), and product evaluation (robust design, design for assembly, design for reliability, cost estimations).

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The fourth edition of The Mechanical Design Process combines a practical overview of the design process with case material and real-life engineering insights. Ullman's work as an innovative designer comes through consistently, and has made this book a favorite with readers.

This book conveys the "flavor" of design, addressing both traditional engineering topics as well as real-world issues like creative thinking, synthesis of ideas, visualization, teamwork, sense of customer needs and product success factors, and the financial aspects of design alternatives, in a practical and motivating manner. New in this edition are examples from industry and over twenty online templates that help students prepare complete and consistent assignments while learnign the material.

This text is appropriate primarily for the Senior Design course taken by mechanical engineering students, though it can also be used in design courses offered earlier in the curriculum. Working engineers also find it to be a readable, practical overview of the modern design process.
