(2020) The development of knowledge-shelf to enable an effective set-based concurrent engineering application. International Journal of Internet Manufacturing and Services , Volume 7, Issue 4, 2020, pp. 407-4271751-6048https://doi.org/10.1504/IJIMS.2020.110256https://dspace.lib.cranfield.ac.uk/handle/1826/15993This paper presents the development of knowledge-shelf (K-shelf) concept to enable set-based concurrent engineering (SBCE) application via knowledge provision. Three main outcomes are presented: 1) concept of the K-shelf in supporting designers throughout SBCE process; 2) demonstrates the concept via web-based software; 3) an industrial case study of surface jet pump (SJP) is also presented to validate the K-shelf concept and its software demonstrator. The K-shelf capabilities of capturing and storing design rationale in a well-structured manner and to support the comparisons among set of design solutions are the main focus of this paper.enAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/SJPsurface jet pumpTOCtrade-off curvedesign rationaleknowledge-shelfset-based concurrent engineeringArticle
