Design is the quest for simplicity and order. Explicit in the term design are the concepts of order and organization. Design is the process of inventing artifacts that display a new physical order, organization, and form in response to function. Design is a conscious and intuitive effort directed toward the ordering of the functional, material, and visual requirements of the problem. Design is a statement of order and organization. Its goal is unity. It must hold together. It is an expression of the human ubiquitous quest for order. Design implies intention, meaning, and purpose. The planning and patterning of any act toward a desired, foreseeable end constitutes the design process. WHAT IS A DESIGN?
DESIGN IS COOL The notion of bringing something into being that did not exist before, whether from scratch or on the foundation of an existing design, is fascinating. Could there be a headier pursuit than participating in creation itself? Machine Design August 7, 2008
OBJECTIVE MME2259a Considering that designing is creative activity, the objective of MME2259a is to introduce design methodology and design tools (applicable to Mechanical Engineering) which are used to execute this creative design process with the objective of creating products that satisfy customers’ needs.

Selection Design – choose item(s) from a catalog Configuration Design – organize the packaging of components Parametric Design – finding variables or parameters. Redesign, alternative design – modifying an existing product. Original Design – develop a totally new product. TYPES OF ENGINEERING DESIGN
Given: Shaft diameter 20 mm Speed 2000 rpm Radial force 6675 N (or 1500 lb) Require: To select an appropriate bearing. Possible Solutions: SELECTION DESIGN Housing Bearing 20 mm 6675 N Shaft [Ullman 1992]

CONFIGURATION DESIGN “Fundamentals of Engineering Design” Barry Hyman, Prentice Hall
CONFIGURATION DESIGN • Configuration design • Selection and arrangement of components on a product • Selection and arrangement of features on a part • Factors in configuration design • Spatial limitations • Product interactions with other physical objects and the user(s) • Maintenance • Wear • Desired customization by the user • Need to include standard parts and assemblies • Need to conform to industrial standards • Need to replace consumable materials
CONFIGURATION DESIGN • Design for function check list • Strong • Stiff or flexible • Buckle resistant • Thermal expansion • Vibration • Noise • Heat transfer • Fluids transport/storage • Energy efficient • Stable • Reliable • Human factors/ergonomics • Safe • Easy to use • Maintainable • Repairable • Durable • Life cycle cost • Styling/aesthetics • Configuration alternatives can be analyzed according to • Design for function • Design for assembly • Design for manufacture
Example: Design a cylindrical storage tank that holds 4 m3 of liquid. Volume:V = p x r2 x l thus 4 = p x r 2 x l 1.273 = r 2 x l Note: There are an infinite number of values for (r, l); therefore more information is necessary. PARAMETRIC DESIGN l 2r

Analysis Problem – a well defined problem with one correct solution. Design Problem – an ill-defined problem with numerous satisfactory solutions. Example: The problem of designing a simple lap joint. ANALYSIS VS. DESIGN Analysis Problem – What size of SAE Grade 5 bolt should be used to fasten together two pieces of 1045 sheet steel, each 4 mm thick and 60 mm wide, which are lapped over each other and loaded with 100N ? Design Problem – Design a joint to fasten together two pieces of 1045 sheet steel, each 4 mm thick and 6 cm wide, which are lapped over each other and loaded with 100N.

DESIGN PROJECT • The goal of the term project is to design a consumer product such as: log splitter, wheelbarrow, utility trailer, boat trailer, towing hitch, bicycle hitch carrier, car turntable etc. The selected project must allow the design team to use CAD design techniques such as assemblies, weldments and sheet metal. • It also must allow the use of Motion Simulation. The choice of product will be made by design team and will be approved by course instructor. • Each design team will: • identify the need • establish relevant design specifications • generate and evaluate several concepts • develop detailed design including engineering drawings • develop design documentation • use design simulation (limited to Motion Simulation) to investigate product performance
HOMEWORK • Form design teams - 4 people • Buy design notebook and bring it to the lab next week • Think about your design project, we’ll decide next week in the lab • Install SolidWorks 2012
