Engineering Design Process

This text clearly presents the engineering design process in Part One and then applies it with an abundance of sample design projects and laboratories in Parts Two and Three. With explicit guidance, students learn that the design process is a set of procedures that will help them solve engineering problems they encounter. Author Yousef Haik illustrates the critical steps of the design process (including articulating the problem, market analysis, function analysis, developing concepts, evaluating alternatives, and marketing) and presents the content so instructors can alter the sequence to meet their specific course objectives. To facilitate hands-on learning and teamwork opportunities, the text provides interesting labs and class-tested design projects developed specifically by the author. Students will learn that they can achieve a successful design by following a logical procedure to meet a specific need.Haik, Yousef is the author of 'Engineering Design Process', published 2006 under ISBN 9780534495190 and ISBN 0534495192.
