This paper investigates briefly the integrated portable reinforcement machine structure design and introduces its design and train of thought. The authors also discuss design methods in engineering applications, as well as how to achieve good heat dissipation effect and enhance the electromagnetic compatibility. The whole machine, with its small volume, good adaptability to environment, and electromagnetic compatibility, can be used as a reference for similar engineering design.

Abstract Validation of engineering research is typically anchored in the scientific inquiry tradition that is based primarily on logical induction and / or deduction. Since much engineering research is based on mathematical modeling, this kind of validation has worked — and still works — very well. There are, however, other areas of engineering research that rely on subjective statements as well as mathematical modeling, which makes this type of validation problematic. One such area is that of design methods within the field of engineering design. In this paper, we explore the question of how one validates design research in general, and design methods in particular. Being anchored in the scientific inquiry tradition, research validation is strongly tied to a fundamental problem addressed in epistemology, namely, what is scientific knowledge and how is new knowledge confirmed? Thus, we first look to epistemology for answers to why an approach solely based on ‘formal, rigorous and quantifiable’ validation constitutes a problem, and for an augmented approach to research validation. We then propose the ‘Validation Square’ which we validate by testing its internal consistency based on logic in addition to testing its external relevance based on its usefulness with respect to a purpose. We recognize that no one has the complete answer to the question we pose. To help us converge on an answer to these questions we “think aloud” and invite you to join us in doing the same. It is our hope that in so doing we, the members of this design research community, will all be the richer for it.

Much progress has been made in sustainable design over the past 20 years since the first publications on design for the environment started to appear in the mechanical engineering literature. Engineering design methods now attempt to include environmental considerations and Life-Cycle Analysis is a commonly used approach nowadays. Nevertheless, some fundamental problems seem to be recurring and remain unresolved. More so, some of these problems can have significant effects on the efficacy of design methods. Without consideration or even acknowledgement of these problems, proposed sustainable design methods may not bring us closer to sustainability at all. In this paper, we highlight a few of these recurring problems. Although true sustainable design should also include social and financial considerations, we will focus primarily on the environmental issues in this paper.

Evaluation Approaches

AbstractEngineering design methods are typically evaluated via case studies, surveys, and experiments. Meanwhile, domains such as the health sciences as well as software engineering have developed further powerful evaluation approaches. The objective of this paper is to show how evaluation approaches from the health sciences and software engineering might further the evaluation of engineering design methods. We survey these approaches and show which approaches could be transferred to the evaluation of engineering design methods.

Capstone Design

A capstone mechanical engineering design course is described. It is suggested that design education should start early in the curriculum, by providing open-ended problems and by emphasizing teamwork. Discovery-based leaching should be integrated into the curriculum to enhance creativity. In the capstone design course, a project is utilized as a vehicle for leaching design methods and related topics. The philosophy of reduced iteration and testing is espoused.

Large Scale Project

The method known as the analysis of interconnected decision areas (AIDA) has been in use for nearly 40 years, but has made little headway into engineering design. This paper describes an implementation of AIDA that is useful to engineering designers wishing to combine the solution principles of various subfunctions within a product in new ways. Traditionally, the method is used to understand how one decision affects the options available to other decisions in a large-scale project. The method is to be used interactively with designers participating in a brainstorming session so that ideas are added to AIDA and immediately combined with other compatible ideas. The existing implementation has been tested in a classroom setting in which upper level undergraduates have successfully used the AIDA method along with numerous of design methods to solve conceptual design problems.
