Double Push Strategy of Knowledge for Product Design Based on Complex Network Theory

Abstract EN

Reasonable application of design knowledge can help improve the efficiency and quality of product design.

Based on complex network theory, this study proposes a double push strategy of knowledge for product design.

The proposal introduces the concept of attribute similarity and triangular fuzzy number and uses the theory and method of complex network to build the knowledge network model for product design that contains creative knowledge subnetwork and engineering knowledge subnetwork.

This paper is to understand the structure and dynamics of the knowledge network model and to identify and predict knowledge nodes and knowledge groups strongly related to design intent in view of the scale-free network topology analysis theory.

We develop a double push strategy of product design knowledge to implement the effective auxiliary function for product design process.

Finally, a design case of antalgic pump is presented to demonstrate the practicability and validity of the strategy.
