    Creating knowledge environment during lean product development process of jet engine
    (Science and Information (SAI) Organization, 2020-05-31) Araci, Zehra Canan; Al-Ashaab, Ahmed; Tariq, Muhammad Usman; Braasch, Jan H.; Emre Simsekler, M. C.
    Organizations invest intense resources in their product development processes. This paper aims to create a knowledge environment using trade-off curves during the early stages of the set-based concurrent engineering (SBCE) process of an aircraft jet engine for a reduced noise level at takeoff. Data is collected from a range of products in the same family as the jet engine. Knowledge-based trade-off curves are used as a methodology to create and visualize knowledge from the collected data. Findings showed that this method provides designers with enough confidence to identify a set of design solutions during the SBCE applications

    Synthesising knowledge for lean product development process of a low noise jet engine
    (Inderscience, 2021-03-30) Araci, Zehra Canan; Al-Ashaab, Ahmed; Tariq, Muhammad Usman; Braach, Jan H.
    The product development process is one of the most challenging stages of a product life cycle due to several reasons. Having the right knowledge environment during the design process may eliminate the waste of cost and time. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate a case study where designers can investigate the conflicting parameters about a product and make their decisions based on an accurate knowledge environment that is created by trade-off curves. The product in consideration is a turbofan jet engine with a requirement of noise reduction during takeoff while keeping up with high quality standards.
