Most real world design evaluation and risk-based decision support combine quantitative and qualitative (linguistic) variables. Decision making based on conventional mathematics that combines qualitative and quantitative concepts always exhibit difficulty in modelling actual problems. The successful selection process for choosing a design/procurement proposal is based on a high degree of technical integrity, safety levels and low costs in construction, corrective measures, maintenance, operation, inspection and preventive measures. In this paper, a design decision support framework using a composite structure methodology grounded in approximate reasoning approach and evidential reasoning method is suggested for design evaluation of machinery space of a ship engine room at the initial stages. An illustrative example is used to demonstrate the application of the proposed framework.

This paper dealt with the development of the Framework for Multidisciplinary Design Optimization for the rotorcraft design concept and the building process of KHP(Korea Helicopter Project) - SDM(Simulation Data Management) system to manage various analysis data, which are used in the rotorcraft development phase. KHP-SDM RMDO(Rotorcraft Multidisciplinary Design Optimization) framework, which applied optimization modules of KHP-SDM and integrated the developed Multidisciplinary analysis modules, was constructed in the KHP-SDM. The results of the rotorcraft conceptual design using KHP-SDM RMDO showed that the framework was evaluated to be successfully constructed.

MDO(Multidisciplinary Design and Optimization) framework can be an integrated environment or a system, which is for synthetic and simultaneous analysis and design optimization in various design fields of aerospace systems. MDO framework has to efficiently use and integrate distributed resources such as various analysis codes, optimization codes, CAD tools, DBMS and etc. in heterogeneous environment, and to provide graphical and easy-to-use user interfaces. Also, its development method can be changed by design objects and development environment. In this paper, we classify MDO frameworks into three types according to the development environments: Single PC-based, PLinda-based and Web Services-based MDO framework. And, we compare and analyze these frameworks.

Design factors such as design objects establishment, analysis, synthesis, production, test and evaluation should be educated in a systematic way. Also design ability to reflect practical restrictive conditions such as industrial standards, economic feasibility, environmental impact, aesthetics, safety and reliability, ethical impacts and social impacts should be cultivated. In this paper, we explain the meaning of these terms and propose a systematic engineering design education framework satisfying Korean engineering education accreditation criteria. We also present a simple implementation in information network engineering.

In this paper, a new design technique called Task Based Design (TBD) is proposed to design an optimal robot manipulator for a given task. Optimal design of a manipulator is difficult because it involves implicit and highly nonlinear functions of many design variables for a complex task. TBD designs an optimal manipulator which performs a given task best, by using a framework called Progressive Design which decomposes the complexity of the task into three steps: kinematic design, planning and kinematic control. An example of TBD is presented to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of our framework.

For the information services supporting requests of data items from a great number of mobile clients, wireless data broadcasting is an effective way because it can accommodate any number of clients. In the wireless data broadcasting, various air indexing schemes and data scheduling schemes have been developed in order to enable the clients to access their desired data items efficiently. The broadcasting system needs a method to simulate newly designed air indexing and scheduling schemes of the system, and to evaluate the performance parameters of the schemes. In this paper, we design an expandable and efficient simulation framework for the wireless data broadcasting based on the partition of data ID space. The framework can adopt regular and irregular space partition and evaluate various performance parameters of the broadcasting system. We implement a testbed of the broadcasting system using the framework, that adopts IIP, GDI and EXP as its air indexing schemes. We simulate the system using the testbed and evaluate the performance parameters of the system. Thus, we show the efficiency and expandability of the designed and implemented framework.

The purpose of this study was to analyze Korea STEAM Programs in the perspective of Engineering Design. A pilot study of analyzing 41 STEAM programs was conducted by using Guzey et al. (2014)'s STEM program analysis framework. Based on the pilot study result, we suggested specific criteria to analyze Korea STEAM program and developed an analysis framework by considering characteristics of Korea STEAM program we found. The analysis framework suggested by this study has 5 more criteria compared to the Guzey et al. (2014)'s framework. By using the suggested framework, we analyzed another 76 STEAM programs developed by the grant of Korea foundation for the Admin of Science & Creativity (KOFAC) in 2016. The analysis results show that only 28.5% of total 76 Korea STEAM programs are focused on Engineering Design and the programs categorized as 'Complete Engineering Design Lesson' were only 5.4%. More than half of the programs (62.3%) are focused on only science contents with crafting and/or concept drawing activities.

This paper presents a design framework developed using axiomatic design (AD) theory that can be applied in the design process of porous concrete. The main contribution of this paper is the definition of an AD framework based on the needs and functional requirements of porous concrete. The framework shows how AD theory can be used to provide guidelines for proportioning and manufacturing porous concrete. The advantage of the AD approach is that it systemizes the way to decouple design parameters and makes designers to think rationally between what we want to achieve and how we propose to satisfy the functional requirements of porous concrete. In this paper, test results of laboratory-size porous concrete specimens under compression were analyzed to evaluate the performance of the porous concrete based on the desired functional requirements.

This study presents the benchmark results of several design frameworks for the purpose of developing an efficient design framework in view of Excel interface. For the benchmark, three optimum design problems are chosen and solved by using the design frameworks. In order to compare the frameworks with each other, the evaluation criteria are specified and modified to fit the problems with Excel interface. Three example cases are solved and compared. The evaluation report is summarized in terms of efficiency, ease of use, internal structure, API, etc. However, the optimization result itself is not focused because the specific optimization algorithm is not our concern. Finally, some suggestions of how to develop an efficient design framework with Excel interface are presented.
