About CAD Activities Effectiveness and Efficiency as Instruments for Sustainable Product Development

Abstract:

The paper presents an approach upon some strategies for improving the effectiveness and efficiency of engineering design activities, respectively of CAD activities, discussions being made in relation with their expected effects upon the sustainability of product development process. Concepts and principles of collaborative design, axiomatic design, integration of design applications with manufacturing planning and technical data management aspects, design reuse etc. are discussed within the presented approach. Complex assembly modeling management issues are also discussed as case study.
