Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If the vehicle control system provides fixed battery usage displays without user input options, then the system complexity is reduced, but the adaptability to user demands deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The system transitions from a static display mode to a dynamic interactive mode where the control unit adapts its behavior based on user inputs. The display unit dynamically changes its output based on user selections from multiple plans, making the system adaptable to different user preferences while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure through software-based control.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the parameter of user interaction from none (fixed display) to multiple selectable options. By providing multiple electricity efficiency improvement plans with different control contents, the system allows users to select parameters that match their preferences, thereby improving adaptability without significantly increasing hardware complexity.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the vehicle control system implements multiple interactive improvement plans, then the adaptability to user preferences is improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The control unit serves multiple functions: it receives user inputs, selects appropriate improvement plans, executes control actions, and provides feedback displays. This multi-functionality is achieved within a single control unit, avoiding the need for separate dedicated systems for each function, thereby improving adaptability while controlling overall system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system provides self-service by automatically analyzing battery usage patterns and generating multiple improvement plans based on detected deterioration factors. The control unit autonomously selects and executes appropriate plans based on user selections, reducing the need for complex external intervention systems.
3Loss of information
If the system provides detailed analysis and multiple improvement plans, then the information quality for users is improved, but the loss of time for processing and display increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary analysis by continuously monitoring battery usage and pre-generating multiple improvement plans based on detected deterioration factors. This preliminary action allows the system to have ready-made options available when users need information, reducing the processing time required at the moment of user interaction while maintaining high information quality.
Solution Approach 2:
The information presentation is segmented into multiple distinct improvement plans, each addressing specific deterioration factors. This segmentation allows users to review options in manageable portions rather than overwhelming them with undifferentiated information, improving information quality while facilitating faster decision-making.
