Fuzzy Mapping Between Physical Domain And Function Domain In Design Process

The contents and meanings of mapping relationships between physical domain and function domain in different design stages, such as conceptual design, detail design and enhancement design, were analyzed. According to the analysis results, the fuzzy mapping between physical domain and function domain in different design stages was established by integrating objective information and subjective information in the design process, such as expert's knowledge, designer's preferences and customer's requirements, where the fuzzy sets, fuzzy mapping and fuzzy transition were used. The property table of structure behavior parameters was established based on the fuzzy mapping relationships. The fuzzy mapping is very important to optimize product structure, perfect product function, meet the diversified and individual requirements of customers. Finally, an example was used to illustrate the fuzzy mapping relationships between physical domain and function domain in different design stages.
