“…Upon pre‐creasing, the paper roll can be passed through a bath of proper metal precursor for infiltration. The automatic folding of the origami structures can be implemented using upcoming reprogrammable robots or by the processes similar to the manufacturing of paper bags and filters . The folded structures can be further heat‐treated using proper heating protocol on rolling furnaces, which are commonly used for manufacturing tiles and other ceramic parts .…”

The fabrication of 3D complex shapes of porous tungsten carbide (WC) using an origami‐inspired manufacturing technology is presented. This is the first report of this technology for the fabrication of complex WC structures with density as low as 0.06 g cm−3. The porous WC origami structures are fabricated by heat treatment of folded paper infiltrated with an aqueous solution of ammonium metatungstate (AMT). WC purity up to 96% is achieved when using an AMT concentration of 20%, synthesis temperature of 1300 °C, and heating rate of 2.5 °C min−1. The as‐synthesized WC features a Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area of 102.06 m2 g−1. Beyond obtaining high‐purity WC, the focus is on understanding the effect of the microstructure on the mechanical performance of origami structures. Increasing the purity of WC decreases the elastic modulus and compressive strength of the origami structure, which is attributed to the increasing grain size of the crystalline phase materials and increase of graphitic phases in carbon with increasing temperature. Furthermore, the WC origami structures exhibit good and stable electrical conductivity under compressive stress. These initial results encourage further work on using paper as a scaffold to fabricate origami‐inspired multifunctional structures, for structural energy components.

Product innovation is creation of new concepts to plan and realize technological and functional details in the product to satisfy market and customer needs. One of the key drivers to product innovation is reactions of the product to users' needs. Product innovation needs a cognitive design method based on needs of variant users for the product personalization. In this paper, an open concept is introduced to provide ways to meet user's individual need in product lifespan. It is for industries to propose product concepts based on open sources, develop and support the product on the public capability. Using the open concept in the product architecture, called open-architecture product (OAP), can improve the product personalization leading to massive product innovation. To promote this promise of the OAP, effective methods are discussed for the OAP development. This paper introduces research on OAPs using adaptable design methods to meet product personalization. Adaptable design is based on the modular structure for product adaptability using function modules and adaptable interfaces. The proposed method provides solutions for planning modules and implementation of OAPs. Methods of OAP module planning, detail and interface design are described for transformation of product concepts into physical structures. A multiple-purpose electrical car is developed in a case study to show effectiveness of the proposed method.

Quality function deployment is a cross-functional decision-making tool that converts customer needs into technical attributes of new products. Fuzzy numbers are usually adopted to evaluate the customer need importance and the customer need–technical attribute relationships. However, the weighted normalized customer need–technical attribute relationship matrix is not always full rank. If the different fuzzy numbers of two technical attributes are defined as the fuzzy negative ideal solutions, both the closeness coefficients are 0, and the traditional technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution cannot prioritize the two technical attributes. Actually, the rankings of different fuzzy numbers are not identical. To solve this problem, we present a new technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution to prioritize technical attributes in the fuzzy quality function deployment. The fuzzy positive ideal solution, fuzzy negative ideal solution, and distance measurement of the new technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution are improved. As a result, the proposed method not only prioritizes various forms of numbers without considering the lower and upper limits, the median, and boundary interval but also deals with the nonfull rank matrix. Besides, the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving is used to solve technical conflicts which are identified by the line-fitting method. The prioritization results from the proposed method can help to reasonably allocate design and manufacturing resources. Finally, a case on phone shell is given to illustrate the application of the proposed quality function deployment method.
