Development of Support for Assessment of Creativity, Novelty and Requirement Satisfaction in Designing
The topic of this research in this thesis is creativity assessment of solutions developed in the engineering design process as a means of aiding designers to focus their creative effort during the process. Both engineering ... -
Development of the Combined Methodology to Understand Designers’ Experimentation and GO-NO-GO Decision-Making during New Product Design and Development
New Product Development (NPD) is the most important activity, which is recognized as the growth engine for product centric organizations to sustain, prosper, and accumulate stakes in the market. Development of new products ... -
The Effect of Mismatch of Total Knee Replacement Components with Knee Joint : A Finite Element Analysis
(2018-01-10)It has been noticed that the need for total knee replacement surgery is increasing for Asian region. A total knee replacement is a permanent surgical solution for a patient having debilitating pain in knee joint suffering ... -
Efficient Finite Element-Based Approaches for Solving Potential Flow Problems in Fluids
For many years, fluid flows have been modeled, starting from basic potential flow equations to full Navier-Stokes equations. The complexity of the flow increases as viscous effects, boundary layer, and flow separation are ... -
Exploration of Design Thinking in School Education
This thesis comprehensively investigates the integration of design thinking into education, focusing on its application in K-12 settings in India. The broad aims of the research work are: 1. To investigate the need to ... -
An Extended Integrated Model Of Designing
(2014-06-20)Product success is a major goal of designing and design research. Designing involves developing systems. A system interacts with its environment to satisfy its requirements. Therefore, designing should involve developing ... -

Arc welding is an important permanent joining process widely used across multiple industries such as transportation, infrastructure construction and equipment manufacturing. However, the inherent high-energy physics and ... -
A Feasibility Map-Based Framework and Its Implementation for Selection in Engineering Design
(2018-06-26)A pragmatic method for selecting components and devices from a database or parameterized models is developed in this thesis. The quantitative framework presented here is sufficiently general to accommodate an entire device ... -
Feature-based Approach for Semantic Interoperability of Shape Models
(2018-02-20)Semantic interoperability (SI) of a product model refers to automatic exchange of meaning associated with the product data, among applications/domains throughout the product development cycle. In the product development ... -
Finite Element Modeling of Knee Joint to Study Tibio-Femoral Contact Machanics
(2018-05-10)Articular cartilage covers the articulating ends of diarthrodial joints. It plays a vital role in the function of the musculoskeletal system by allowing almost frictionless motion to occur between the articular surfaces ... -
Formulation of A Framework for Needs Analysis and Stakeholders' Behavioral Simulation for Design for the BOP
Poverty, and associated undesirability, distinguishes a population as Base of the (economic) Pyramid (BoP). Lack of necessities and vulnerability negatively affect the well-being of BoP populations. Literature reveals ... -
A Framework for Effectiveness-based Sustainability Assessment in Manufacturing – A Product Life Cycle Approach
In recent decades, various human health impacts and environmental concerns (e.g., microplastic pollution, chemical exposure, biodiversity loss) associated with manufacturing/product life cycles have surfaced, threatening ... -
Gaze Estimation in the Wild - Models, Datasets and Usability
Human eye gaze estimation research has numerous applications in diverse fields from Human Computer Interaction (HCI) to aviation. Non-intrusive video oculography based methods are classified into two categories based on ... -
A Geometric Approach for Discrete and Statistical Reach Analysis for a DHM with Mutable Supports
(2017-12-05)Conventional ergonomics analysis involves building physical mockups and conducting simulated operations, such that the constraints experienced by the human subjects can be directly observed. The limitations of this approach ... -
