A decision support method for product conceptual design considering product lifecycle factors and resource constraints

Dimitrios Kyritsis, Paul Xirouchakis

In general, it is difficult to select a satisfactory product concept because the information in the early stage of design process is subjective, qualitative, and even uncertain to design engineers. The correlations among engineering characteristics for a p ...

Design of a semantic knowledge base to support the product development process

Paul Xirouchakis, Predrag Spasojevic

New product development today is a knowledge-heavy process, but very often this knowledge is not adequately handled, it’s not made readily available to the actors, or is lost within or between similar projects. Furthermore, different legacy tools and data ...

Experimental analysis of drilling fiber reinforced composites

Paul Xirouchakis, Mihai-Bogdan Lazar

In comparison with metals, long-fiber reinforced composites have a layered structure, with different properties throughout their thickness. When drilling such structures, internal defects like delamination occur, caused by the drilling loads and their unev ...
