Samenvatting:
This book focuses on the development of multi-variant products using modular product structures and thus addresses the reduction of complexity from a product development perspective.
This book is a translation of the original German 1st edition Methodische Entwicklung modularer Produktfamilien by Dieter Krause & Nicolas Gebhardt, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2018.
From the content
Introduction and motivation - effects of variety - basics and terminology - potentials of modular product families- modular product structure strategies - methods for developing modular product families - effects on product development processes and future trends.The target groups
This book is aimed at product developers and decision makers in practice. Science is offered a helpful reference book and interested engineering students can immerse themselves in the development of modular product families with the necessary basics.
The Authors
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Dieter Krause studied production technology/mechanical engineering and received his doctorate at the Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. This was followed by leading positions as head of design department head of technical departments and CEO in mechanical and plant engineering. Since 2005 he has been head of the Institute of for Product Development and Mechanical Engineering Design (PKT) at the Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH). He is a member of the international Scientific Society of Design Science and of its advisory board and a member of the German Scientific Society of for Product Development (WiGeP) and speaker of its board since 2022.
Dipl.-Ing. Nicolas Gebhardt studied product development and mechanical engineering at the Hamburg University of Technology . From 2011 up to 2017 he was is a research assistant at the Institute for Product Development and Mechanical Engineering Design at the Hamburg University of Technology in the research group methodical development of modular product families. After that he worked at Wittenstein and since 2021 he is working at Thyssen Krupp Marine Systems in Hamburg.
