  1. The Process of Design MVHS Intro to Engineering

  2. Thinking • What is a good example of the problem solving process? • What is a good definition of the design process? • What are the major steps in the design process? • How are creativity and innovation parts of the design process?

  3. Design Process • Design is the process of planned change • By accident! • Design goal

  4. Design Process • Definition- • a systematic problem-solving strategy, with criteria and constraints, used to develop many possible solutions to solve a problems or satisfy human needs and wants and to narrow down the possible solutions.

  5. Problem Solving • The process of understanding a problem, devising a plan, carrying out the plan, and evaluating the effectiveness of the plan in order to solve a problem or meet a need or want

  6. Scientific Method • Characterization: Observations or measurements • Hypotheses: Theoretical explanations • Predictions: Reasoning using logic • Experiments: Tests of all the above

  7. Thinking • How is the design process different to the scientific method? • How is it similar? • (3 min – be prepared to share)

  8. The Design Process • ASK • IMAGINE • PLAN • CREATE • IMPROVE

  9. The Design Process ASK • What is the problem? • What have others done? • What are the constraints? IMPROVE IMAGINE • Make your design better • Test it out • What are some solutions? • Brainstorm • Choose the best GOAL CREATE PLAN • Follow your plan and create • Test it out • Draw diagram(s) • List materials and equipment needed • Estimate what to do, by whom, when

  10. Brainstorming • Rules: • No Critizism • Work for quantity • Welcome “piling on” • Allow free-for-all • Agenda? • Marker rule

  11. Dean Kamen • Who is Dean Kamen • What is he famous for? • (3 min – be prepared to share)

  12. Design Brief • A written plan that identifies a problem to be solved and its criteria and constraints. • A design brief encourages thinking of all aspects of the problem before attempting a solution.

  13. Client: Designer: Problem Statement: Design Statement: Constraints: Deliverables: Grans Chain, Inc. Ian Mahoney Computer desk areas tend to be very cluttered. A variety of desk items 9blank paper, printed papers, paperclips, tape, etc.) as well as a plethora of computer cables and attachments are all typically very cluttered and unorganized, causing major loss of work efficiency Design, model, and test a prototype modular commercial computer desk system that will substantially reduce desk and computer cable clutter, leaving ample computer connectivity (USB, firewire, etc.) 3 mo. Design and prototype, (ii) $175 max mfg. Cost (qty of 100,000) –base unit, (iii) $250 max. mfg. cost (qty of 10,000) – fully optioned, (iv) 8 sq. ft. min. surface working area (st. 30” height), (vi) max. shelving height of 7”, (vii) less than 130lbs – fully optioned (i) Sketches showing breadth of ideas, (ii) Design journal, (iii) technical drawings, (iv) Mfg. cost estimates, (v) Development schedule and cost estimates.
