A design change is the modification conducted to the product. It can happen at any stage in the product development process. The design changes that happen early in the design process are less expensive when compared to those that take place after it is introduced into full-scale production.

Systems and methods for providing a dynamic continual improvement educational environment

Dynamic systems and methods for gathering / tracking data, automatically adapting to an individual's pace of learning, selectively determining the type and difficulty of content provided to an individual, selectively providing an exposure frequency for the content, and / or enabling rapid design modifications within the educational environment. Educational content is dynamically designed / developed and customizably presented to an individual learner. An analysis is performed on the data to optimize learning. Modifications are selectively or automatically made to the educational content. The process of designing, implementing, analyzing, and selectively modifying creates a cycle that optimizes the learning process and adapts to groups and individual learners with the goal of improving learning outcomes and efficiency. Furthermore, the educational content is dynamically provided to the learner on an iterative basis according to the need of that learner in the learning process.

Production and visualization of garments

Methods and systems for modelling and modifying garments, providing a basis for integrated “virtual tailoring” systems and processes. The garment models provided relate specific design points of the garment to specific body regions in terms of explicit 3D relationship rules, enabling garments to be modified holistically, by a constrained 3D warp process, to fit different body shapes / sizes, either in order to generate a range of graded sizes or made-to-measure garments, for the purposes of visualization and / or garment production. The methods described further facilitate the generation of 2D pattern pieces by flattening 3D representations of modified garments using a constrained internal energy minimization process, in a manner that ensures that the resulting pattern pieces can be assembled in substantially the same way as those of the base garment. The methods enable the visualisation and / or production of bespoke or graded garments, and garment design modifications, within an integrated virtual tailoring environment.

Manufacturing method of semiconductor device

In a trial production process from a design process to an actual manufacturing process of semiconductor devices, a pre-process of a pad matrix wafer with simpler configuration than a prototype wafer is completed before a pre-process of the prototype wafer is completed, and data of conditions and evaluations to be used in a test process and a post-process subsequent to the pre-process of the prototype wafer is created by using the pad matrix wafer. Therefore, the data of conditions and evaluations used in the process subsequent to the pre-process can be prepared and the design modifications of various devices used in the process subsequent to the pre-process can be finished before the post-process of the prototype wafer is started. Therefore, a smooth transition from the pre-process to the subsequent processes of the prototype can be achieved, and the delivery time of semiconductor devices can be shortened.

Vanes for exposure to vibratory loading

Disclosed are methods for designing vanes that, in use, are expected to be exposed to vibratory loading, in particular rotor or stator vanes for aero engines or turbomachinery. A quantitative characteristic (modeshape) is used which is a measure of correlation between the excitation force to which the vane is to be subjected in use and a vibrational mode of the vane, corresponding to a characteristic frequency of the excitation. The modeshape of the first design is determined. Then the first design is modified to give a second design, by one or more of leaning, sweeping or twisting the blade design, or by altering the local shape of the design, or by altering the material of the design. Then the modeshape of the second design is determined. The design modification gives rise to a reduction in the forced response levels.
