“…The third stage is prototype in which designers have to produce functional physical models in order to evaluate their ideas and to check ergonomic, functionality and product stability. Prototypes are fully functional and end users can use them in order to give their feedback [9]. In last decade, more and more designers and engineers have been adapting 3D printing technique in order to create prototypes [10][11][12].…”

The designing process of a new product includes various stages, one of which is the evaluation of an idea thought prototype manufacturing. The use of additive manufacturing consists the most efficient and effective way for prototype manufacturing. In order to maximize the benefits from the use of additive manufacturing, we should choose the suitable printing parameters. A vital parameter for defining the quantity of raw material used and the model solidity is the inner wall thickness. Depending on the selected technique of additive manufacturing, the thickness of the inner wall may differ. In this study we initially print furniture models with different wall thicknesses using the Inject Binder technique and then we check their durability and resilience by compression tests. Evaluating the study results indicate the hollow printed specimens have high durability during compression tests and can be used to evaluate a design idea. Using the facts derived from lab tests we perform Topology Optimization studies under different circumstances to evaluate the method and come up with the optimal design solution. Initially, the Topology Optimization study concern only the table surface and not the whole model. The following studies were performed for the whole model, different constraints and load cases defined. Then, the optimized models are redesigned in order to improve their durability. The performed studies show that Topology Optimization is a powerful tool, which is able to support the designers/ engineers to take the right decision during the design process.

“…Some male customers are also more prone than others to noticeable and branded product consumption patterns as a method to convey their social standing (Grant, 2013). This kind of customer expenditure rivalry can be more expected during competition or interaction with other customers and, consequently, results in increased market exploration for better products, famous brands, and services that indicate glory and prosperity to others in the society (Babalis, Ntintakis, Chaidas & Makris, 2013). Only male customers with suffi ciently large amount of fi nancial resources can aff ord to display high priced and branded products in an extravagant, unfettered prodigal way; thus, such cues may only be used by a limited segment of customers (Shahani-Denning, 2000).…”

Purpose -This empirical study explores the infl uence of physical prominence of t he sales personnel on the purchase behavior of male customers at health supplement and nutraceuticals retail stores. The researchers carried out a fi rst-hand study to investigate the impact of advertisements featuring models "with six-pack abs holding dietary supplement boxes" on customer purchases.Design/methodology/approach -The experimental research method with the observational technique of data collection was employed to study how subjects respond to various stimuli. The data collected through this technique was analyzed by using IBM SPSS 21. The data was collected by applying the area sampling technique at 12 dietary supplements retail stores in diff erent cities and villages in India from 1 November 2019 to 15 January 2020. The sample consisted of 24 male employees of dietary supplement retail stores and 40 male customers who purchased dietary supplements.

“…[193][194][195] Considerable effort has been applied toward improving packaging design in terms of using advanced materials with more environmental considerations. 9,12,196 Refillable packaging was also introduced to provide an opportunity for reducing the environmental impact of packaging through reducing the amount of material used. However, users should be motivated to use packages that provide convenience, cost-effectiveness, good quality, easily usage, and cleanness.…”

User packaging interaction (UPI) has evolved in packaging research because of its importance to users, manufacturers, and designers. A great deal of work addressing problems and suggesting potential improvements has been directed toward UPI. However, this work is not easily accessible to researchers as it lacks a cohesive structure. This paper serves as a platform for UPI researchers by presenting previous work UPI in an organized structure based on stages of interaction. Over 100 articles were reviewed to identify the scope of research in this area and then categorized according to stages of interaction. During the review of more articles, these stages of interaction were modified to ensure that they reflected all the reviewed articles. The review process resulted in the enumeration of the following stages: at point of purchase, checking out, handling, opening, and disposal. The related articles in each category are presented and discussed, and potential future work is presented. The articles were further categorized according to the age and gender of users under test, and packaging and product types considered. The review process has revealed different issues in the current research structure of UPI including the comprehensibility of the conducted research and the distribution of the reviewed articles. On the basis of this review, a model is proposed for improving the UPI by quantitatively evaluating the package design and affordances provided at each interaction stage.
