objective
The main objective of this
chapter is:
To introduce the steps engineers
follow to successfully design
products or provide services that
we use in our everyday lives
4. Conceptualization
5. Synthesis
consider details
They consulted pertinent codes and
standards to make sure that their
design was in compliance
Most of the design was done in ProE
and prototypes were built in machine
and electrical labs
The unique design of the propeller
required the use of a manufacturing
process known as investment casting
6. Evaluation
ProMechanica
Finite element techniques were used to look at stresses in
critical components of the motor itself and the mounting
bracket and the lifting mechanism
Numerical experiments were performed to study the
hydrodynamics of propeller designs including thrust,
cavitation, speed, and drag
7. Optimization
8. Presentation
Engineering Economics
Economic factors always play important roles in
Material Selection
Selection of materials is an important design decision
Examples of properties to consider when selecting
materials
Density
Ultimate strength
Flexibility
Machinability
Durability
Thermal expansion
Electrical & thermal conductivity
Resistance to corrosion
Material Properties
Material properties depend on many factors
sheared.
Modulus of resilience : a mechanical property of a material that shows how
effective the material is in absorbing mechanical energy without going
through any permanent damage.
Modulus of toughness : a mechanical property of a material that indicates the
ability of the material to handle overloading before it fractures.
Thermal expansion : the change in the length of a material that would occur if
the temperature of the material is changed.
Thermal conductivity : how good the material is in transferring thermal
energy .
Heat capacity : represents the amount of thermal energy required to raise the
temperature of one kilogram mass of a material by one degree Celsius.
Materials with large heat capacity values are good at storing thermal energy
can ow. The higher the viscosity value is, the more
resistance the uid offers to ow.
Vapor pressure : uids with low vapor-pressure
values will not evaporate as quickly as those with
high values of vapor pressure.
Bulk modulus of compressibility : represents how
compressible the uid is. How easily can one
reduce the volume of the uid when the uid
pressure is increased.
Teamwork
Design team
Conflicts
When a group of people work together, conflicts
sometimes arise. Conflicts could be the result of
Miscommunication
Personality differences
The way events and actions are interpreted by a
member of a team
Conflict Resolution
Managing conflicts is an important part of a team
dynamic
In managing conflicts, it is important to recognize
conflicts
Conflict Resolution
Collaborative Conflict Resolution Approach
Evaluating Alternatives
When a design is narrowed down to a
evaluation criteria
Sustainability in Design
Sustainability and sustainable
engineering can be defined as
design and development that meets the
needs of the present without
compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs.
Sustainability in Design
