A vision for sustainable additive manufacturing

Graziosi, Serena (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Stanković, Tino (author), Borgianni, Yuri (author), Meisel, Nicholas (author), Hallstedt, Sophie I. (author), Rosen, David W. (author)

Radical technological innovations are emerging in response to environmental, economic and geopolitical pressures. This affects how we design and manufacture new solutions. Additive manufacturing, one of the enabling technologies of the digital transition, can support more-sustainable manufacturing processes if developed through a system-level...

‘Zeitenwende’: The retrenchment – or not – of ‘territorialism’?

Faludi, A.K.F. (author)

‘Zeitenwende’ as announced by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in relation to Ukraine suggests the retrenchment of ‘territorialism’. I discuss this with a focus on Poland. Western Ukraine has after all been Eastern Poland until becoming part of the Ukrainian SSR in 1939. Enlarged with Crimea, the same SSR declared independence from the Soviet...

3D Printing for Repair: An Approach for Enhancing Repair

van Oudheusden, A.A. (author), Bolanos Arriola, J. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Flipsen, Bas (author), Balkenende, R. (author)

The availability and storage of spare parts are the main barriers to product repair. One possibility would be to 3D print spare parts, which would also enable the repair of products not intended to be repaired. Besides manufacturers, 3D printing spare parts is an interesting option for self-repair by consumers. However, the digitisation of...

Design Aspects in Repairability Scoring Systems: Comparing Their Objectivity and Completeness

Dangal, S. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Balkenende, R. (author)

The Circular Economy Action Plan adopted by the European Commission aims to keep value in products as long as possible through developing product-specific requirements for durability and repairability. In this context, various scoring systems have been developed for scoring product repairability. This study assessed the objectivity and...

Co-Creating a Framework to Integrate Sustainable Design into Product Development Practice: Case Study at an Engineering Consultancy Firm

Chatty, Tejaswini (author), Harrison, Will (author), Ba-Sabaa, Hana H. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Murnane, Elizabeth L. (author)

There is a growing recognition of the need to incorporate sustainability considerations early-on in the product development (PD) process (PDP). As part of a case study at an engineering consultancy firm, this paper identifies considerations that influence the integration of sustainable design practices into real-world PD practices. This is...

Physical properties of wood-based materials for liquid deposition modeling

Rosenthal, Michael (author), Rüggeberg, Markus (author), Gerber, Christian (author), Beyrich, Lukas (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author)

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to quantify the vertical shrinkage rates and the mechanical strength of three-dimensional (3D) printed parts for a variety of wood-based materials for liquid deposition modeling. Design/methodology/approach: The overall hypothesis was that a well-chosen combination of binders, fibers and fillers could...

Comparing environmental impacts of metal additive manufacturing to conventional manufacturing

van Sice, Corrie (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author)

Metal additive manufacturing (AM) is revered for the design freedom it brings, but is it environmentally better or worse than conventional manufacturing? Since few direct comparisons are published, this study compared AM data from life-cycle assessment literature to conventional manufacturing data from the Granta EduPack database. The...

Sustainable Product Design Education: Current Practice

Watkins, Matthew (author), Casamayor, Jose L. (author), Ramirez, Mariano (author), Moreno, Mariale (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Pigosso, Daniela C.A. (author)

Current production and consumption patterns are unsustainable, causing irreversible damage to the environment and human health and well-being. Designers play a vital role in resolving this problem—their decisions affect product manufacturing, distribution, use, and disposal—and hence they must be aware of the positive and negative impacts of...

A study of graphical representations of uncertainty in LCA guide

Tensa, Melissa (author), Wang, Jenna (author), Harris, Roscoe (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), DuPont, Bryony (author)

This study user-tested different data visualizations for highly uncertain life cycle assessments (LCAs) to determine what best supported decision-making. Precise LCAs can only be performed once designs are finalized, due to the information necessary to complete them, but design changes in such late stages are costly. If designers could have...

An eco-impact design metric for water lubricated bearings based on anticipatory Life Cycle Assessment

Nijssen, J.P.A. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), van Ostayen, R.A.J. (author)

Water lubricated bearings have been named in literature as a sustainable alternative to their oil-based counterparts. In order to clarify when water lubricated bearings are or are not a sustainable alternative, and inform design decisions, an analytical design tool is introduced based on anticipatory Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). This model is...

Faults in consumer products are difficult to diagnose, and design is to blame: A user observation study

Pozo Arcos, B. (author), Dangal, S. (author), Bakker, C.A. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Balkenende, R. (author)

The process of fault diagnosis is an essential first step when repairing a product: it determines the condition of the parts and identifies the origin of failure. We report on how product users go through the process of fault diagnosis in consumer products and the influence of design features on this process. Two groups of 12 participants were...

Perception of sustainable design integration benefits among industry product development teams: A case study

Chatty, T. (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author)

How do employees perceive the impact of incorporating sustainability considerations into their product development practice? In this case study, we observe how these perceptions can be shifted by teaching workshops on how to apply sustainable design methods in practice. We compare the trends for different methods on various dimensions such as...

Government and Governance on the Western Balkans: Policy Debate

Faludi, A.K.F. (author)

With no direct exposure to ‘The Western Balkans Network on Territorial Governance,’ I take it to be a joint effort concerning a loosely-defined region for which there is no unitary government, nor will there be one. Hence, we are talking about ‘governance’ rather than ‘government’, the former referring to anything that goes beyond or comes in...

European Spatial Planning Beyond Sovereignty

Faludi, A.K.F. (author)

By definition sovereign, States find themselves inescapably in a situation of permanent competition. Moreover, given that an inherent quality of sovereignty is to exclude obeying whomever else, nobody, neither individuals nor institutions can arbitrate between them. This being the case, in the international arena power becomes the one and...

Where do professionals find sustainability and innovation value?: Empirical tests of three sustainable design methods

Faludi, Jeremy (author), Yiu, Felix (author), Agogino, Alice (author)

Recommendations of sustainable design methods are usually based on theory, not empirical industry tests. Furthermore, since professionals often mix components of different design methods, recommending whole methods may not be relevant. It may be better to recommend component activities or mindsets. To provide empirical grounding for...

Stewart, Shelby (author), Giambalvo, Jack (author), Vance, Julia (author), Faludi, Jeremy (author), Hoffenson, Steven (author)

Many different product development approaches are taught and used in engineering and management disciplines. These formalized design methods, processes, and environments differ in the types of projects for which they are relevant, the project components they include, and the support they provide users. This paper details a review of sixteen...

New horizons: Beyond territorialism

Faludi, A.K.F. (author)

Taking inspiration from maritime spatial planning, more in particular the Law of the Sea dividing ocean space into zones of graduated control, including areas beyond national jurisdiction (where by definition territorialism does not apply) the paper revisits territories as the building blocks of a political order. From there it proceeds to...
