“…The influence of the end product on internal and external users is determined by sustainable design, which is an essential component of the social sustainability pillar. Furthermore, sustainable product design is gaining traction worldwide, and it is now defined as a multidisciplinary approach that incorporates both product design and sustainability (Mehdi & Boudi, 2021). Years ago, the concept of making sustainable products was debated.…”

Consideration of sustainability in product development is becoming increasingly important and encompasses many aspects of product design. In this study, a bibliometric review of recent sustainable product design publications using Web of Science and VOSViewer is carried out. The review indicates that the majority of publications concerning sustainable product design is oriented towards environmental science-led subject areas and production-led journals. Analysis of author keyword co-occurrences reveals that circular economy, life cycle assessment, sustainable management, and optimization are the most popular topics in sustainable product design research. The analysis also reveals that the researchers fail to link sustainability research to activities in product design, which leads to the lack of access to relevant research that can make products more sustainable. Building on the findings, the authors propose four future research directions that aim to guide researchers to better correlate sustainability with product design, namely: sustainability interpretation, integration, assessment and validation, and improvement.

“…Simultaneously, Gong et al presented a variety-driven clustering method for assembly layout design and formulating the cluster analysis using the DSM and then applied the result to the automobile connector assembly system design [20] Pultar et al introduced the use of the parameterbased design structure matrix as a process modeling and system analysis tool for building design [21]. Moreover, a DSM-based methodology for designing a regenerative braking system was used in a recent study by Mehdi et al [22]. It should be noted that, to the best of our knowledge, there is not any previous study on applying DSM to biomedical devices nor robotic devices; in this study, we applied the DSM approach to the development process of a surgical robot.…”

The product development process (PD) can be viewed as an optimization problem to minimize design loops. Nowadays, the complexity of the system components has increased due to technological progress. These complex interconnections between the different components of the system can complicate and prolong the design process. In such cases, the decision on the sequence of design steps can depend heavily on the experience of the designer. But, other methods can systematize the design process, and help designers and engineers to design more reliably and faster. In this study, we used the Design Structure Matrix (DSM) approach to design and develop a surgical robot mainly used in spine surgery. The main 50 parameters of the robot such as the number of degrees of freedom, motor torque, length of the links, and their relationships described by the kinematics and dynamics of the robot, were inserted into the matrix. These parameters are the minimum parameters required for the initial design of the mechanical structure of a robot. DSM determined the main design loops of our desired system. The most challenging loop of the robot was the one related to choosing motors whose parameters were tightly connected to other robot's parameters. After rearranging the order of parameters and simplifying, and decreasing the loops, a more rational and doable design road map was obtained. The result of the final model showed that it fully met the criteria and constraints of the simulation test for spine surgery.
