How do the different components of the bicycle operate and interact with each other? Given the specification of requirements for each component, the material properties that are important can be highlighted. ” Quality function deployment can also be used as a tool for translating customer needs into design requirements. Designers and engineers have to take into account a large number of different factors when selecting materials. Karana et al. (2008) showed that when designers select a material they must consider fulfilling the following quantitative requirements: 1.

1): Wj 5 n X Rij 3 Ci j 5 1; 2; . 1) i51 where Wj is the absolute weighting for the jth technical requirement, n is the number of customers’ requirements, Ci is the priority assigned to the ith CR, m is the number of engineering characteristics, and Rij is the weighting assigned to the relationship between the jth technical requirement and the ith CR. The relationship between technical requirements is shown in Room 8, which supports the product design. It is also known as a roof matrix. The analysis related to the roof of quality is improved when technical/engineering characteristics influence each other in asymmetric ways and their mutual influence varies in relation to different CRs (Reich and Levy, 2004).

Who? • Design engineers in collaboration with materials engineers. How? • • • • • Specify the requirements for the component. Transfer the requirements to materials properties. Find the material groups that satisfy the specification. Find the individual materials that satisfy the specification. Identify the "best" materials that satisfy the specification. 1 Materials selection basics (Sandstrom, 1994). chosen and if it needs to be stiff, rubber would not be chosen, unless there are compelling reasons.
