Course purpose

This course aims at teaching and train the student in systematic methods and tools for redesign and analysis of product concepts with respect to different central aspect. The course is held in project form.

Changes made since the last occasion

A number of changes have been implemented since last time. The material regarding robust design and variation simulation have been extended. The material covering material selection has been reduced since many students have been exposed to the material prior to this course. Because of this, only one "dugga" will be held.

A number of changes aiming to maximize safety due to the COVID-pandemic has also been implemented. See "kurs-PM" document. 

Learning objectives and syllabus

Learning objectives:

Apply scenario techniques to describe the use situation/environment intended for the product. - Apply function structures to describe and analyse the functional structure of a product. - Apply Ischikawa-diagram to categorize and analyse parameters and related aspects. - Apply requirement and features profile in order to identify and specify critical material features. - Use software for robust design and tolerance analysis on a simple assembled product. - Use software for DFA-analyse to evaluate the assembly friendliness of an assembled product. - Use software for systematic materials selection in order to identify suitable design materials based on a requirement profile. - Apply FMEA to identify and envisage the effect of different error sources. - Apply LCA-analysis in order to analyse a product s negative effect on the environment. - Critically evaluate both results and usefulness of the respective methods. - Run a group development project. - Present results in writing and orally, also of work carried out.

Study plan

If the course is a joint course (Chalmers and Göteborgs Universitet) you should link to both syllabus (Chalmers and Göteborgs Universitet).

Examination form

This course do not have a written exam. Instead, to pass this course the student needs

  • To be present at a minimum of 75% of the lectures
  • Approved labs. 
  • Approved final presentation of the project, both orally and in written form.
  • Approved "dugga"
  • Take part of the feedback meeting of the mini-report. 

The grades for the course covers U (Not approved), 3, 4 and 5. The Grade is weighted from the "dugga" and project work respectively 25 %and 75 %. Observe that the resulting points of the dugga is counted, not only the grade.
