Currently offered to : PG Manufacturing; Dual Degree (CIM) Schedule : Autumn Semester Credit : 6 (2-1-0)
SYLLABUS CONCEPTS of Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Role of DFM in Product Specification and Standardization, design, development, and functional requirements, material and process selections. INTRODUCTION to components of DFM - Design for Assembly, Performance, Quality, Biocompatibility, Ergonomics, Reclying, etc. Design to Cost. QUANTITATIVE methods of material selection in DFM based on engineering properties, material performance indices, comparative property charts, costs, etc., Evaluation of single and multi-attribute utilities. DESIGN rules for selection of materials and processes, Part geometry and tolerances, shape factor, prototyping, computer-aided material and functional modeling, mathematical optimization, formation of objective and constraint functions, factorial analysis. CASE STUDIES on product design for manufacturing and assembly.
ASSESSMENT PLAN Quiz -> 25%; Course Project -> 20%; Attendance -> 5%; End Semester -> 50%
