System Design and Analysis based on AD and Complexity Theories
2.882 · Mechanical Engineering · Graduate · Spring 2005
Prof. Nam Suh, Dr. Taesik Lee
This course studies what makes a good design and how one develops a good design. Students consider how the design of engineered systems (such as hardware, software, materials, and manufacturing systems) differ from the “design” of natural systems such as biological systems; discuss complexity and how one makes use of complexity theory to improve design; and discover how one uses axiomatic design theory (AD theory) in design of many different kinds of engineered systems. Questions are analyzed u…
