Virtual Reality leads Digital Product Development technology to a more effective and convenient way by presenting the product model in an immersive real 3D environment. Distributed VR even enables partners to discuss the design of the product independent of their locations. This paper introduces our work with a Digital Product Development System with Virtually Cooperating Teams Using High Bandwidth Networks — ProViT, which aims at building up immersive telepresence systems for design review across high-bandwidth networks. Video and audio streaming are integrated in the virtual environment to support immersive teleconference aspects of the distributed design review sessions. A network management system has been developed for the supervision, maintenance and processing of distributed setups, and network security.

Explore the 3R design strategy of straw woven living products from the perspective of green design. By analyzing the characteristics of traditional straw weaving technology, based on the principles of reduction, reuse and recyclability of 3R design, the green design strategy of straw woven living products is put forward, and the product development and life cycle are divided into design stage, use stage and abandoned stage, and the ideas of reduction, reuse and recycling and the implementation strategies of each link are put forward. Traditional straw weaving technology conforms to the idea of green design. The introduction of the 3R design strategy not only opens up the development path for the contemporary inheritance of traditional straw weaving technology, but also provides ideas for the realization of the green design of modern living products. The integration of straw weaving technology and 3R design will have important practical significance for cultural heritage, product development, resource conservation and environmental protection.

The customer is the starting point for green design of electromechanical product demand, also the bridge of connecting to the market and the mechanical and electrical product development process. Enterprises effectively obtain and understand customer needs, and accurately define the demand information of mechanical and electrical products in the design process, which is the necessary precondition for the successful design of mechanical and electrical products in the global market environment. The designer obtains accurately and effectively information of demand of mechanical and electrical products, which is an important link of product design process. It will also directly affect the subsequent steps in the process of product development. Therefore, all aspects of mechanical and electrical products manufacturing enterprises work should depend on customer demand. To meet the design idea of customer demand should be fully integrated into every link in the development of mechanical and electrical products. Enterprise can not only shorten the time of mechanical and electrical products, but also have a significant impact on the design of mechanical and electrical products quality.

Engineering education has a key role to play in equipping engineers with the design skills that they need to contribute to national competitiveness. Product design has been described as “the convergence point for engineering and design thinking and practices”, and courses in which students design, build, and test a product are becoming increasingly popular. A sound understanding of product development and the implications associated with developing a product have been strongly linked to sustainability outcomes. This paper presents an evaluation of a new Master level engineering unit offered at Deakin University in product development technology. The unit allowed the students an opportunity to engage with the entire product development cycle from the initial idea to prototyping and testing through strategic assessment, which drove the unit content and student learning. Within this, students were also afforded an opportunity to explore resource usage and subsequent minimisation. Student evaluation surveys over two successive years found that students were responsive to this type of learning and appreciated the opportunity to do hands-on work. Improved student effort and engagement indicate that the students likely had better learning outcomes, as compared to traditionally taught units.

Abstract Technologies have become a critical issue within product development, since superior technologies are the foundation for successful products. Technology development until now has suffered from a fuzzy innovation process based on trial and error in a high-pressure product development environment, often leaving no time for real innovation. Technologies developed under these circumstances seldom become superior, robust, mature and flexible, which are the criteria considered to be critical for technologies to provide competitive advantage. In this paper the idea of separating technology development from product development into a steady technology stream is evolved. This enables companies to supply their product development programs with winning technologies at the right time. A four-phase process framework to support and catalyze the technology development cycle is introduced, discussing the first and second phase in depth. The proposed framework is based on an integration of five major development methodologies and aims at providing competitive advantage to companies by emphasizing superior, robust, mature, and flexible technologies.

To contribute to global sustainability, many manufacturers are starting to implement green product development and trying to provide environmentally friendly products. Although green products are environmentally beneficial to our society, the performance of green product development remains poor because of cannibalization from traditional alternatives at lower prices. This is particularly the case in the current unforgiving marketing reality in which many brand retailers, such as Wal-Mart, Tesco, and Carrefour, offer their own store brands as traditional alternatives. Although a large stream of research has studied the effects of competition on manufacturers’ green design, to the best of our knowledge, there is a dearth of research on the effects of competition from retailers’ store brands on manufacturers’ green design. To fill this gap, we present two models in which the manufacturer has an incentive to design for the environment, and the retailer has the flexibility to sell store brands (Model S), or it does not (Model N). Surprisingly, our analysis indicates that the presence of store brands may stimulate the manufacturer to release a new greener version of the national brand. Moreover, we find that although the presence of store brands is beneficial to the retailer and industry, it always hurts the manufacturer’s profitability. To incentivize the manufacturer to support Model S, we propose a two-part tariff contract.
