Defining system boundaries in change propagation analysis
A diesel engine case study
An approach to cope with changing market needs is to design engineering systems that can be changed easily. However, in order to identify suitable candidates to be made more changeable, one has to be able to analyse the changeability of engineering systems. Hence, this paper i ...
This paper presents a modelling method that seeks to support the prediction and management of undesired engineering change (EC) propagation during the design and development of complex products. The method builds on the house of quality and the change prediction method to mode ...
Planning is an integral part of the complex product development system. While the value of using DSM as a valuable project tool has been widely discussed, few have proposed using DSM as a tool to assist in managing the planning activity itself. This paper proposes that such an ...
This paper introduces an approach which uses a modified House of Quality (HoQ) and the Change Prediction Method (CPM) to consider change propagation during the concept selection phase. The key idea is to capture the influence of unintended feature changes on product attributes ...
