  • Investigating Product Designer LCA Preferred Logics and Visualisations
    Procedia CIRP, 2019
    Co-Authors: Maud Rio, Florent Blondin, Peggy Zwolinski
    Abstract:

    Abstract Product Designers are frequently subject to analyse the environmental lifecycle performance of the Product they design through Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) results available to them. The LCA delivers multi-criteria and multi-environmental impact indicators results for improving the design of the Product under development at any stage of the design process in any industrial context. Gaining time and precision in this LCA results analysis is crucial for Product Designers. In this view this research focuses on supporting an efficient matching between a Product Designer profile and some pre-formalised lifecycle visualisations, called heuristics. To do so this paper investigates Product Designer’s logics in analysing LCA results, as well as their preferred visualisations in the interpretation process. The experimental protocol developed to capture these Product-design oriented LCA analysis preferences (logic and visualisation) is presented. Capturing their needs regarding LCA results was the first part of this research, detailed in this paper. The second part is focused on building the visualisations satisfying theses needs. The resulting process of LCA analysis will be then assessed in term of efficiency. The short-term research perspective is to formalise those trajectories heuristics through an interoperable application adapted to the various types of software used in industry based on the LCA methodology. Additional profiles addressed by governmental or enterprise decision makers can be added in the coming years using the same methodology.

  • A Design to Environment Modelling Approach based on Time Variation Networks
    Procedia CIRP, 2018
    Co-Authors: Maud Rio, Andreas Riel, Shinsuke Kondoh
    Abstract:

    Abstract Multidisciplinary collaboration from different domains and expertises became a necessity to address the environmental aspects in innovative design decisions and development. Designing to Environment involves overlap of information used and created by the diversity of Product design expertises. It remains difficult for Product Designers and environmental experts to interrelate their respective parameters. This prevents Product Designers to converge toward environmentally aware design choices. This research therefore investigates the use of time Parameter Network Models to follow the emergence of environmental parameters linkage with Product Designer expertises’ parameters. An industrial cooker hood design process case study explores the co-creation of local environmentally-aware knowledge between Product Designers based on this parameter linkage. Interesting opportunities are identified to furthermore translate parameter linkage in transformation rules between entities and parameters models. After instantiation such rules would allow dynamic and flexible information exchanges between Product Designers’ and environmental expertises’ activities along the design process.

  • A framework for eco-design: an interface between LCA and design process
    International Journal of Engineering, 2011
    Co-Authors: Maud Rio, Tatiana Reyes, Lionel Roucoules
    Abstract:

    Integrating environmental aspects in the design process is getting more and more covered by the actual scientific research. Based on various fields such as "eco-design", "Design for sustainability", "eco- innovation", several specific software and methods have been developed to tackle this issue. Our work focuses on Product Designer software and eco-Designer software that already exist. This research analyses Product design and eco-design--considering their respective complexity--in order to determine the main difficulties to systematically integrate environmental aspects in the design process. Our observations have led us to work on three elements: information, software, and collaboration between Designers and LCA expert. The principal objective is to facilitate the interface between Product design and eco-design by linking the requirements and performances of both domains. It seems therefore necessary to help the collaboration between various experts and thus to develop a digital interface enabling Designers to exchange data and to use their appropriate related software. The aim of this paper is to argue the need of a digital tool interfacing the actual tools of the design process and of eco-design (among the related software such as CAD, CAx, PLM, and LCA). This "digital interface" is presented at the end of the paper and will be created next year.

  • a meta cognition modeling of engineering Product Designer in the process of Product design
    International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, 2007
    Co-Authors: Jun Liang, Z Jiang, Yunsong Zhao, Jinlian Wang
    Abstract:

    For further effectual tacit knowledge reusing in the process of Product design, individual cognitive processes, cognitive factors, and cognitive strategies need to be realized to find the essential factors that affect the generation of tacit knowledge and control Designer activities in the whole design process. But these key factors are relative to individual cognitive capability and meta-cognitive level. So, based on physical symbol system hypothesis (PSSH) and connectionism, a meta-cognition model of engineering Product Designer is provided to elucidate the active monitoring and consequent regulation in this paper. Designers' cognitive activities in the process of Product design are analyzed from the viewpoint of cognition science. Finally, the cognitive differences between the experienced Designers and the novices in the process of fuel injection bump design is compared and elaborated in detail.

  • A method for choosing adapted life cycle assessment indicators as a driver of environmental learning: a French textile case study
    AI EDAM, 2019
    Co-Authors: Tatiana Reyes, Reidson Pereira Gouvinhas, Bertrand Laratte, Bruno Chevalier
    Abstract:

    Despite alefforts for a sustainable Production system, many companies are still struggling to implement environmental aspects in their daily Product development processes. Among the evaluation and improvement methods, life cycle assessment (LCA) is one of the most popular tools to achieve this goal. Up to date, LCA has been applied to many Products, services, and industrial systems to evaluate their environmental impact aspects. However, there is a wide range of indicators available to be applied for LCA, and choosing an inappropriate indicator may lead the Product Designer to achieve wrong and weak results. Therefore, this paper proposes to overcome this difficulty by developing a method that can be used as a knowledge transfer to Product Designers and LCA practitioners in order to help them to make the most appropriate choice of LCA indicators. This method should have some characteristics, such as (a) to be adaptable to a given context and (b) to be dynamic, scalable, and easy to learn. The purpose of this paper is to present the Evaluation Method for Choosing Indicator (EMCI) developed to facilitate the learning process of LCA methods and to quickly select their most appropriate indicators. To validate the EMCI method, a case study on a French textile industry has been implemented. The focus was to evaluate how LCA indicators and methods were chosen to be integrated into the suitable eco-design LCA tool.
