Development of a Numerical Framework for Virtual Testing to Support Design of a Next Generation Thermoplastic Multifunctional Fuselage

This work summarizes the recent developments of a numerical framework to predict the mechanical behaviour of thermoplastic composites. It supports the design of a next generation thermoplastic multi-functional fuselage which uses advanced joining techniques such as thermoplastic welding to reduce both weight and cost by limiting the amount of...

Personalized design process for persuasive technologies

In this position paper we discuss the application of personalization in persuasive technology design in light of the Personalized Design Process model (PDP-model). The PDP-model defines personalization as aligning a persuasive product to the end-user by stakeholder involvement (i.e. designers, endusers, domain experts and family/relatives)...
