چکیده
From the perspective of reducing the environmental impact, this study applies Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Delphi Method to construct a product assessment framework for early product planning and development stage to evaluate a product‟s impact and influence on the environment. This study firstly collects the environmental performance indicators through intensive literature review and employs them as the criteria. Together with Delphi questionnaire, AHP is used to model the hierarchy of the decision problem, which will be basis to develop green product assessment framework in the follow-up research. By completing the study, this well-designed green product assessment framework is intended to provide a systematic, comprehensive, and timely platform to assess the environmental impact of a product. And it aims to reflect the following factors: (1) The green product assessment framework can help design environmentally sound product that take the entire life-cycle into consideration. (2) The green product assessment framework is based on environmental and ecological impact. (3) The green product assessment framework can provide timely assessment results for design improvement.

Implementation Procedures for the Risk in Early Design (RED) Method
Risk assessments performed at the conceptual design phase of a product may offer the greatest opportunity to increase product safety and reliability at the least cost. This is an especially difficult proposition, however, as often the product has not assumed a physical form at this early design stage. This paper introduces the Risk in Early Design (RED) method, a method for performing risk asse...

Quality function deployment (QFD) is a customer-driven approach, widely used to develop or process new product to maximize customer satisfaction. Last researches used linear physical programming (LPP) procedure to optimize QFD; however, QFD issue involved uncertainties, or fuzziness, which requires taking them into account for more realistic study. In this paper, a set of fuzzy data is used to ...
