Method and Process used in Engineering Design.

... Method and Process used in Engineering Design Engineering Design requires efficient and careful consideration to solve technical problems related to the satisfaction of human needs. A simple definition of design is to create according to a plan for a particular purpose. Design usually starts with a loosely defined problem for which many possible solutions exist. The engineering design process, which can be viewed as a particular type of problem solving, is an orderly, systematic approach involving iteration and decision making at each step. It can be illustrate by using flow chats or steps. They contain four main phases in order to avoid any risks occurring and help the design process successful. The four main phases are clarification of the task, conceptual design, embodiment design and detail design as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2. The steps listed below represent one of the many possible ways of subdividing the design
