This well-established and widely adopted text, now in its Fourth Edition, continues to provide a comprehensive treatment to the morphology of design process. It gives a holistic view of product design, which has inputs from diverse fields such as aesthetics, strength analysis, production design, ergonomics, reliability, cost reduction, and computer engineering. Based on the feedback received from academics and students, a new chapter on Product Design for Environment, which is gaining importance, has been added to this edition. It discusses the importance and objectives of design for environment, and describes the various approaches by which a modern, environment-conscious designer goes about the task of design for environment. Examples have also been taken up to make the topic interesting. KEY FEATURES Provides concepts from material science, which include inputs on ceramics, rubber, polymers and other materials to make the design idea physically realizable. Uses the modern Concurrent Design concept to satisfy diverse groups/areas such as marketing, vendors, production, and quality assurance. Considers the use of computers while analyzing modern techniques of prototyping, simulation of product and its use. Designed primarily as a text for courses in mechanical engineering, production engineering, and industrial design and management, the book should also prove very handy to practising engineers.
