“…The function tree (Andreasen 1980) is a method of modelling a product starting by systematically decomposing its intended functions. Morphological analysis is a process of development of an object by progressive introduction of form features (Brun, 1994). Function tree can be combined with morphological analysis by basing the form development on the functions the product needs to support.…”

Teaching the same design module to two different cohorts, traditional design students and industry-based students, the outcomes of the conceptual design stage has shown differences in divergence achieved, looking at both number and quality of concepts. The activities of both cohorts across two years are explored, combining on campus studio based teaching and online teaching, through comparison of teaching approaches for both cohorts and their effect on the design outcomes. Findings show that the traditional design students create significantly larger number of concepts, discussed in more detail and engage more fully in the divergence-convergence design process. Then the recommendations are provided for approaches and techniques that could be implemented to the industry-based student teaching to encourage divergence during idea generation. These include increased levels of studio work focused design work separated from industry needs, more structure and mandatory use of all instructed design techniques by inclusion in the assessment, increased focus on intermediate tasks and contextualisation of design terms to the fields they are familiar with.

“…16 shows three different solutions for filling a groove. Falcidieno and Giannini [28] introduce the notion of dummy entities similar to the notion of virtual entities defined by Brun [29]. In this paper the technique described by Brun [29] is used to build a convex closed shell for a feature from local topology.…”

The paper presents geometric tools for an automated Design for Assembly (DFA) assessment system. For each component in an assembly a two step features search is performed: firstly (using the minimal bounding box) mass, dimensions and symmetries are identified allowing the part to be classified, according to DFA convention, as either rotational or prismatic; secondly form features are extracted allowing an effective method of mechanised orientation to be determined. Together these algorithms support the fuzzy decision support system, of an assembly-orientated CAD system known as FuzzyDFA.
