Journal of Engineering Design is a leading international publication that provides an essential forum for dialogue on important issues across all disciplines and aspects of the design of engineered products and systems. The Journal publishes pioneering, contemporary, best industrial practice as well as authoritative research, studies and review papers on the underlying principles of design, its management, practice, techniques and methodologies.
Fully supported by an international editorial board, the Journal publishes only the highest-quality original research contributions and book reviews from all the major disciplines of engineering design. Whilst fostering academic knowledge capture and understanding, the journal provides an invaluable reference source for worldwide best practice that underpins innovation and developments in engineering design.
The Journal covers, but is not restricted to, the following topics:
aesthetics, style and form
big data analytics
collaborative design
concept design
creativity and innovation
design architectures
design costing
design education and pedagogy
design for X, e.g. manufacturability, assembly, environment, sustainability
design management
design optimisation approaches
design risk and uncertainty
design theory and methodology
designing product platforms, modularity and reuse
emotive design, e.g. Kansei engineering
ergonomics, styling and the design process
evolutionary design activity (product improvement & refinement)
global and distributed design
inclusive design and assistive technology
industrial design and total design
integrated design development
knowledge and information management
maintainability, sustainability, safety and standards
multi, inter and trans disciplinary design
