Abstract: Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe the framework of conceptual design support tool (CDST) developed to assist designers during conceptual design process. The premise of the study is that, by combining human creativity with computer capabilities, it is possible to perform conceptual design process more efficiently than solely manual design. The study aims to show how conceptual design knowledge can be captured from experienced designers and kept in the computer system for later use and how the developed tool assists designers by handling some of the repetitive and time‐consuming tasks.Design/methodology/approach – A conceptual design process model, which integrates systematic design approach with knowledge‐based system, is proposed. Based on this model, a CDST, which consists of function library, alternative concepts database, different modules for conceptual design activities, and a knowledge‐based system is developed. The alternative concepts database is built based on design reuse philos...

A Framework for Complex Product Architecture Analysis using an Integrated Approach
TL;DR: An integrated conceptual product architecting approach is proposed that combines and expands the functional and structural modelling approaches, enabling capturing and tracing knowledge coherently through a common binding domain, underpinned by the view that most interaction requirements during structural modelling can be derived from functional modelling.
