Decisions in Engineering Design
Abstract
Engineering design is the process by which engineers’ intellect, creativity, and knowledge are translated into useful engineering products that satisfy particular functional requirements and meet engineering specifications while complying with all constraints. The traditional design approach has been one of deterministic problem-solving, typically involving efforts to meet functional requirements subject to various technical specifications and economic constraints, among others. In general, engineering design is a loosely structured, open-ended activity that includes problem definition, representation, performance evaluation, and decision making.
