Abstract

Conceptual design is a process progressing from a description of needs and functions to one or more abstract models, and finally to the prediction of the actual behavior and performance of the object being designed. In this paper, a methodology for the specification stage in conceptual design is presented. The specification stage provides requirements and transforms them into functions of the designed object. It occurs at the highest level of abstraction and it must provide enough information for the synthesis process where functions are transformed into design components that are further synthesized into the designed object. Methodology allows for problem solving in an active interaction with the designer. An important part of the proposed methodology is the requiremental and functional tree representing the overall logic and structure at the design problem. The methodology presented is illustrated with an example.

Özet

Kavramsal tasarım, bir veya daha fazla kavram modellerin ihtiyaçlar ve fonksiyonların tarifinden, sonuçta tasarlanan bir nesnenin (sistemin) performans ve gerçek davranışının tahminine kadar bir geliştirme işlemidir. Bu çalışmada, kavramsal tasarımda şartname aşaması için bir metodoloji sunuldu. Şartname aşaması, ihtiyaçları ve tasarlanan nesnenin fonksiyonlara dönüşümünü sağlar. Kavramın en üst aşamasında vuku bulur ve fonksiyonlar tasarlanan nesnenin ileri sentezlenmiş tasarım parçalarına dönüştürülmesi için sentez işleminde yeterli bilgi sağlamalıdır. Metodoloji tasarımcıyla aktif bir ilişki içinde problem çözümü için izin verir. Önerilen metodolojinin önemli bir parçası, tasarım probleminin genel mantık ve yapısı, ihtiyaç ve fonksiyonel ağaçta temsil edilir. Sunulan metodoloji, bir örnekle gösterilmektedir.
