Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MAM-9.K Engineering and Management, Master, ASPO 01.10.2004 , semester 9, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
150 class hours (= 112.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 360 hours (equivalent to 12 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 247.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Bernd Heidemann
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Bernd Heidemann

Module content:
Introduction: Technical products their utility.
The useful-life phase and product lifetime.
The main stages of the product development process according to VDI guideline 2221 and the underlying methodologies.
- Task definition and compilation of requirements list
- Determination of overall function; developing functional structure from subfunctions
- Identifying subfunction solutions: creativity techniques; patent searching and analysis; systematic analysis (transition from physical effect to operating principle, variational techniques)
- Morphology and choice of solution; systematic variation and combination of the partial solutions to yield concept variants
- Generation of final concept variants: computational methods and simulation techniques
- Assessment of concept variants using technical and economic criteria
- The main design phase: General description and general strategy
- Systematic design: Fundamental design operations; variational design techniques; basic principles; product-independent and product-independent design strategies; evaluation and decision making
 
Contacting companies; obtaining a project; method-based development of a project-specific work schedule  
Clarification of project task; compilation and assessment of potential solutions using the methods of systematic product development; modelling of most cost-effective solution and design optimization; manufacturing drawings and tolerance analyses; presentation of results
