in the past, medical device design always was performed with medical engineers, technicians and physicians in all design stages and the industrial design role was pale in this field. today the industrial design responsibilities in designing of these devices are considered increasingly. the industrial design role in medical device design was investigated in two fields. first are aesthetic and it...

the industrial design is a two or three-dimensional aesthetic creation related to industrial products. according to the definition of the iranian law, for the realization of the legal protection of industrial designs there are three necessary components: combine lines or colors, runs on industrial products and change product appearance. in iran, only the registered designs are supported. while ...

A novel methodology for the calculation, visualisation and analysis of the Reconfigurable Machinery Efficient Workspace (RMEW), based on the twist angles, is presented in this paper. The machinery’s kinematic parameters are used for calculating the workspace, while the efficient workspace is associated with the machinery’s path and includes the endeffector position and orientation. To analyse a...

During their time in university, students of industrial design are typically trained to improve the appearance, function and value of products. This product-centric focus of the industrial designer’s work is often blamed for the proliferation of unnecessary products in the market and the promotion of such wasteful values as rapid obsolescence and conspicuous consumption. In this paper, the usua...

This paper presents ENVIRON (ENvironment for VIRtual Objects Navigation), an application that was developed motivated by the necessity of using Virtual Reality in large industrial engineering models coming from CAD (Computer Aided Design) tools. This work analyzes the main problems related to the production of a VR model, derived from the CAD model.
