Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If autonomous vehicle fleets are deployed without optimization based on capabilities and service dynamics, then fleet deployment is simplified, but computational resources are wasted and idle time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary evaluation of vehicle capabilities and service dynamics before deployment decisions are made. By pre-assessing resource performance parameters and determining optimal fleet configurations in advance, the system avoids wasteful computational resource usage during operation and reduces idle time through proactive optimization.
2Adaptability or versatility
If fleet size is increased to improve service coverage, then operational capacity is enhanced, but resource utilization efficiency decreases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically determines optimal fleet size by evaluating service dynamics and resource performance parameters in real-time. Rather than using a static fleet size, the system adapts the fleet configuration based on current operational conditions, capability assessments, and service demands, thereby maintaining high resource utilization efficiency while providing adequate service coverage.
3Manufacturing precision
If comprehensive capability assessment is performed for all vehicles, then deployment accuracy is improved, but computational processing time increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the fleet into groups based on capability assessments and service dynamics evaluations. By dividing the comprehensive assessment into manageable segments and evaluating resource performance parameters for different vehicle subsets, the system maintains high deployment accuracy while reducing overall computational processing time through parallel evaluation and prioritized assessment of critical capabilities.
