Bibliography on Form Features and Feature-based Design
Searchable bibliography
 
CASE-based architectural Design
The aim of FABEL is to support case-based and model-based design methods. These methods are being investigated on the example of designing buildings with complex installations.
 
Chemical Engineering Design
 
Computer Aided Detector Design (CADD)
The CADD initiative at CERN, Geneva is concerned with the integrated management of data concerning the LHC (particle) detectors throughout their lifetime. (Data exchange, groupware etc.) Also technical drawings for ATLAS - part of the Large Hadron Collider
 
Current issues in design - Survey 1995/6
The executive summary of a survey " to establish the current position on a number of key issues associated specifically with innovation, training and new working practices ".
 
Design Exchange Gateway
on-line AutoCAD drawings in three formats: DWG, DXF, and GIF. This server is provided by the Experimental Facilites Division of the Advanced Photon Source at The Argonne National Laboratory, USA.
 
DesignNet
directory of design research services at Stanford Center for Design research.
 
Design Research
A Mailbase discussion group.
 
DesignWeb
DesignWeb is a distributed information server for Research and Development in Engineering Design. It offers information and discussion on the various areas of design.
 
The Engineering Case Library
This lists cases available from the ASEE Engineering Case Program. Held at the Center for Case Studies in Engineering, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, IN, USA. The cases are accounts of real engineering work written for use in engineering education. New cases will be listed and abstracted on change sheets which will be mailed at irregular intervals and then added to each new edition of the catalog. (Cases go back as far as 1960's. Not so many dated for the 1990's. Cases must be ordered as paper copies (eg $3.50 for 15 pages).
 
Engineering- design
A Mailbase discussion group.
 
Engineering Design Publications Survey
The results of a survey questionaire on the quality and relevancy of publication sources of Engineering Design and its computational support.
 
Engineering Design Laboratory at NIST
EDRC
The goals of the Engineering Design Research Center at CMU are the development of fundamentals of a design science, cross-disciplinary methodologies for the creation of products and processes, and computational tools for improved design practice in the principal domains of large-scale structures, computers, chemical processes, and automotive components.
 
Future Issues in Design Research (FIDR)
The results of a workshop (held February 1999) sponsored by the UK's EPSRC and Department of Trade and Industry into the future issues of design research and specifically to: "understand the current needs of industry in the design area (including process, support tools and systems, technologies, etc); summarise the achievements of design research over the last 10 years; understand good design research practice; highlight and identify the key issues and directions for future research; highlight and identify relevant technology transfer and awareness activities for the next 12 months."
 
The How Things Work Project
of the Stanford Knowledge Systems Laboratory is developing knowledge-based technology to offer intellectual assistance in all stages of the life cycle of engineered products. One of the products of the project is the Device Modeling Environment (DME), a system that assists in model formulation, simulation, and documentation of designed artifacts.

Lancaster EDC
The Lancaster University Engineering Design Centre is a UK national research centre that specializes in software for Engineering Conceptual Design, particularly for Mechatronics products. Schembuilder enables an experienced designer to generate a large number of alternative schemes in a short time, complete with rough costs, weights, overall dimensions, etc. and has the capability of directing the less experienced designer to produce schemes without the need to refer frequently to seniors, whilst learning rapidly in the process.

RACE
"RACE does pioneering work in a young field that hopes to reverse the tragedy of modern technology: the continuous subdivision and narrowing of science and the consequent loss of balance of society and the environment. Its activities were initiated in 1992 by Hiroyuki Yoshikawa, the President of the University of Tokyo, who proposed novel directions for the study of engineering and technology related to all aspects of man-made objects " artifacts ". We share our research objectives with the Group for Research into Artifacts, supported by the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture. We set to work simultaneously to harmonize the subdivisions that exist in the academic world and which separate the different sets of learning on artifacts, and to assess the problems and opportunities --such as poverty, starvation, environmental disasters, energy shortages, and health problems-- now facing modern society. Through the lens of the problems themselves, a new way of doing engineering will emerge. The intellectual basis of RACE is thus the removal the mismatch between academia and reality, we are attacking this problem on seven fronts. "
