To select design guidelines engineers have to identify relevant from a bewildering amount of design guidelines. In this paper, a rule-based method for selecting design guidelines for material circularity selection is presented. For this purpose, a generic Product Life Cycle model is detailed with regard to Multi Material cycles (gPLC-MM). The presented method is divided into four steps. Core of the presented method is the comparison of circular product strategies with product life phases and material recovery processes. Engineering activities and increments of the product architecture are used to identify design guidelines. The results show that through the material circularity-oriented design guideline identification method, the product architecture is designed for different processes and technologies, to recover materials. The method allows engineers to select guidelines in a more targeted and consolidated way in sustainability-friendly product engineering.

“…Modular design is particularly important for hardware upgrades, as individual components can be replaced or added with little resource input during the products time-in-use . This means that additional functions can be added to the product during the use phase (Krause et al, 2021). Through a product platform, individual requirements can also be considered through flexible components and costs can be saved due to the high degree of standardization.…”

In today's VUCA-World it is necessary to consider future requirements to develop change- and future-robust future products, especially regarding the increasing demand for sustainable solutions. In order to address this situation, upgradeability of modular products can be a solution. Considering that elements of modular products are used in several different products and over a long period of time, there is a need to act on this challenge. To uncover areas with a need for action, a systematic literature review on upgradeable and modular products was conducted. After resolving four fields of action and under consideration of the need for sustainable products, another systematic literature review examined the solution space of upgradable modular product architecture. In conclusion, several influencing factors on the upgradeable design of modular products could be identified, which are presented in this work.

“…To achieve harmonization of the subsystems, the architectures of the development disciplines must be considered in a common method. For this purpose, the Method of Design for Variety by Kipp et al (2010) is suitable, since this method is, on the one hand, an established procedure for variety-oriented product design (Krause et al, 2021) and, on the other hand, can be placed in the context of the "RFLP"-Approach, which has already been successfully used in systems engineering for "interdisciplinary" product engineering. (Eigner et al, 2014) To map cross-disciplinarity in the Design for Variety method, components from other development disciplines must be considered in addition to the standard integrated and considered mechanical components.…”

This paper analyzes the potential of crossdisciplinary collaboration in the methodical development of Modular Design by harmonization asynchronous mechatronic system structures. Subsystem boundaries in multidisciplinary development processes are set disciplinespecific, resulting in inconsistencies in module fitting. Based on a case study, harmonization of disciplines is elaborated as a solution. This aligns discipline structures and reduces effects on the variety in system structures.This implementation shows support for modular design and enables an integrated view as a systems-in-system.
