Learning Objectives - Part A
Objective of the course is to develop a design experience based on the basic content of Ergonomics in Design.
Teaching activities are structured in a theoretical part, aims to provide the theoretical and methodological basis of its ergonomics, its main components of the Human Factors (study of the human factor), and the User Centred Design (project centered on 'user), and in laboratory activities within “Applicazioni di Ergonomia”aimed to testing the knowledge acquired.
The educational activities will be developed in a strictly integrated, and will be divided into lectures, seminars and design exercises.
Learning Objectives - Part B
The course aims to provide students with the methodological tools for the analysis and evaluation of products in order to realize a body of knowledge useful for designing a really conscious.
Prerequisites - Part B
The enrollment is done by delivery of a module containing the personal data of the student (depending on model precompiled which will be provided). The course includes lectures lectures and guided exercises in the classroom.
Teaching Methods - Part B
The course includes lectures and guided exercises in front aula.Il course also provides a series of exercises live in the classroom in preparation for the next exercise final design of a simple product: the final exercise will be delivered at least seven days before the date on which it will take the exam.
Further information - Part B
RECEPTION (hour, day, location)
As well as at the end of each lesson, you can directly book a meeting by sending an e-mail to the following addresses:
Angelo Butti - abdesign@aruba.it
The meeting, with indication of seat and place will be confirmed with an e-mail response.
PROJECT
The final project will be developed on tablets (preferably one) A1 folded A4 (during the course will be presented an example of table-type). The number of tables is free.
The tables will be present the following documents:
or views of the object from all sides (6 views)
Sections 2 or significant
or 1 Axonometry or Perspective
Details or 2 (using longitudinal and cross sections + three-dimensional view)
or 1 or Exploded Isometric Cutaway
or rendering of acclimatization
or 3 Views rendering significant
or views / Sections verification anthropometric with Ergonomic Table
The representation of the table will have to follow the UNI regulations for technical drawing. All drawings will be quoted necessarily (following the nomenclature UNI).
At least one table must contain the legend of the materials that make up the object with appropriate detections through hatches and colors.
In addition to the tables, it must be realized PLASTIC Product (1:10 agreed with teachers or other) useful in order to carry them out with anthropometric simulacra in the corresponding scale.
It also requires a CD-ROM (or DVD) containing:
1- Presentation sequential (PowerPoint) of the following topics:
• History of the typology of the topic in question
• Reference Standards
• Suggestions (with sketches)
• Study of the shape of the object
• Ratings of plastic
2- The project proposal digital VECTOR:
• The 2D drawings will be in DWG format of AutoCAD (with layer thicknesses or the file CTB thicknesses print, if used) and preferably in a single file.
• The 3D models will be in DWG or AutoCAD format MAX 3dsmax or OBJ Rhinoceros, preferably in a single file (NB will be including any textures used in the model).
3- The boards of examination in the format of Adobe Acrobat PDF (A1 size, resolution 300dpi).
4- Rendering of acclimatization and three (3) three-dimensional views of the project, in TIFF uncompressed size of 1600 x 1200 pixels and 300 dpi resolution.
On the cover of the CD and under the support base of the model must include:
-Frontespizio (University. Faculty. Etc.);
-Generalità Student (Surname, Name, Serial, Academic Year, Phone number);
Headline and a picture of the project;
-Any Notes (optional).
The CD-ROM or DVD delivered for examination must include all the documents produced in paper form, as well as all documents in the formats indicated part of the course examination. When checking pre-examination and the examination will be used exclusively these supports, which should then work correctly.
Type of Assessment - Part A
are provided
• Two intermediate tests aimed at verifying the content of the theoretical and methodological issues dealt with in the lectures;
• elaborate design exercises during the course, which will be delivered in the date indicated in the lectures.
• final presentation of the project
Type of Assessment - Part B
The examination will focus on the topics covered in class and on the discussion of the documents produced by each student, appropriately presented through paperless and unified computing.
During the examination the student must give clear evidence of their skills in the analysis and product design of furniture.
The final vote will be made up of the average achieved in the following math tests passed:
- Pre-selection test (consisting of one or more tests to be performed ex-tempore in the classroom)
- Sequential presentation,
- Graphical presentation of tables,
- Oral examination.
It should be noted that passing the pre-selection test, together with the presentation in advance (at least 7 calendar days prior to the exam date at the Secretary of the Degree Course in the utmost respect of opening hours) Complete material, both in print and on CD ROM or DVD, is a prerequisite to access the exam.
Course program - Part A
Subject of the course are ergonomic principles and evaluation methods used in design fields and, finally, the role of knowledge and methodological tools of ergonomics in the design process of industrial products.
The product will be analyzed from the standpoint of the individual-user, taking into consideration the ways in which people come into relationship with the products within the different "contexts of use" (ie the physical, social and organizational) in which these products are used.
Course topics will include:
-The User-Centred Design (UCD) approach, its basic principles and its policy of intervention in the design field, with particular reference to the main methods of assessing the usability and safety of use and their applications in process design and manufacture of industrial products.
- Knowledge about the "human factor", ie the set of knowledge about human characteristics and capabilities, which allow you to set and develop the project starting from the basic needs of the individual. Among these will be addressed in particular the knowledge related to anthropometric and biomechanical aspects of physical and sensory and perceptual aspects.
- The theoretical contents and Application of Ergonomics, and in particular the User-Centered Design, will be deepened by exposure and discussion of case design examples.
The course aims to stimulate critical and constructive engagement through exercises and inspections of case studies.
The main topics covered are:
• The contents of Ergonomics for Design;
• The approach and principles of 'User-Centered Design;
• The Task analysis (task analysis);
• The components of user-product: the physical and anthropometric and biomechanical aspects;
• The components of user-product: aspects and psycho-sensory perception;
• The reading of the user-product relationship, through the analysis of its evolution over time and its possible evolutionary lineages, in some types of everyday products.
The laboratory is aimed at testing the knowledge acquired in the classroom.
The workshop activities will be aimed at trying cases of specific design, the methodological approach and the right Ergonomics User Centred Design and development of design experience aimed at product innovation by understanding and creative elaboration of possible areas of intervention, in the field of industrial product.
The aim of the workshop is to develop a design concept that can provide all the technical and formal development of the final design: morphological choices, sizing, materials and components.
The concept will be developed from an evaluation phase of the usage context ipotezzibale, by applying their methods of investigation User-Centred Design approach.
