    The document discusses the engineering design process as a systematic problem-solving strategy used to develop solutions to satisfy human needs. It provides multiple examples of design processes that typically involve steps such as identifying problems, researching solutions, developing and testing prototypes, and refining the design. The design process used in engineering design is presented in 8 steps, beginning with defining the problem and ending with evaluating and potentially revising the solution.

    The Engineering Design

    Process

    RHS Tech Ed
    What Is Design?
    What Is a Design Process?
    A design process is a systematic
    problem-solving strategy, with criteria
    and constraints, used to develop many
    possible solutions to solve or satisfy
    human needs or wants and to narrow
    down the possible solutions to one final
    choice.

    Design Process

    Various design
    processes are used
    across different technical
    fields. The following are
    examples.
    Design Process Example
    1. Identify problems and opportunities
    2. Frame a design brief
    3. Investigate and research
    4. Generate alternative solutions
    5. Choose a solution
    6. Developmental work
    7. Model and prototype
    8. Test and evaluate
    9. Redesign and improve
    Design Process Example
    1.Identify the need
    2.Define the criteria
    3.Explore/research/investigate
    4.Generate alternate solutions
    5.Choose a solution
    6.Develop the solution
    7.Model/prototype
    8.Test and evaluate
    9.Redesign and improve
    Design Process Example
    1. Define the problem
    2. Brainstorm
    3. Research and generate ideas
    4. Identify criteria and specify constraints
    5. Explore possibilities
    6. Select an approach
    7. Develop a design proposal
    8. Make a model or prototype
    9. Test and evaluate the design using specifications
    10. Refine the design
    11. Create or make solution
    12. Communicate processes and results
    Design Process

     Design process used in ED is an example of one design


    process
     Many design processes exist and are effective
     Consistently applying a single clearly defined design process
    provides a basis for understanding
    Design Process used in ED
    1. Define the Problem 6. Testing and Evaluating
    2. Identifying Criteria and the Design Using
    Specifying Constraints Specifications
    3. Researching and Generating
    Ideas 7. Communicating
    4. Exploring Possibilities & Processes and Results
    Selecting an Approach
    5. Designing & Making a Model 8. Refining the Design
    or Prototype
    1. Define the Problem
    • Identify a problem
    – Break the scenario down to its simplest
    ideas
    • Validate the problem
    – Who says it is a problem?
    – Needs and wants
    – Prior solutions
    • Justify the problem
    – Is the problem worth solving?
    2. Identifying Criteria and Specifying
    Constraints

    • Create design requirements


    • What do you want to accomplish
    • Identify materials
    • Identify tools
    • Identify what can and cant be
    done
    3. Generate Concepts
    • Research
    • Brainstorm possible solutions
    • Consider additional design
    goals
    • Apply STEM principles
    • Select an approach
    4. Exploring Possibilities & Selecting
    an Approach
    • List all ideas gathered
    • Take each possibility and expand
    • Evaluate plausibility
    • Determine which idea is the best
    5. Develop a Solution
    • Create detailed design
    solution
    • Justify the solution path
    • Technical Drawings
    6. Construct and Test a Prototype

    • Construct a testable
    prototype
    • Plan prototype testing
    – Performance
    – Usability
    – Durability
    • Test prototype
    – collect test data
    – analyze test data
    7. Present the Solution

    • Document the project


    – Project Portfolio
    • Communicate the
    project
    – Formal Presentation
    8. Evaluate the Solution
    • Evaluate solution
    effectiveness
    • Reflect on design
    – Recommend improvements
    • Optimize/Redesign the
    solution
    – [Return to prior design process
    steps, if necessary]
    – Revise design documents
    Evaluate the Solution
    • Does the solution
    solve the problem?

    • If not, the designer


    must return to a
    previous step of the
    design process.
    A Design Process

    Product improvement
    or redesign will
    require the designer
    to repeat the design
    process.
