In a presentation that formalizes what makes up decision-based design, this books defines the major concepts that go into product realization. It presents major concepts in design decision making in an integrated way and covers the fundamentals of decision analysis in engineering design. It also trains engineers to understand the impacts of design decisions.nbspThis book teaches most fundamental concepts encountered in engineering design, such asnbspconcept generation, multiattribute decision analysis, reliability engineering, design optimization, simulation, and demand modeling.
