Past, present, AM and the future -- 2 - Using the Axiomatic Design in engineering -- 3 - 4D printing on textiles: developing a file to fabrication framework for self-forming, composite wearables -- 4 - Personalized Fashion on-demand and e-fashion business models: a user survey in Greece -- 5 - Machine Learning to classify and predict design and fabrication solutions of architectural prototypes driven by sustainable criteria -- 6 - Evaluation of the station uniform for firefighters by anthropometric method on the basis of the physico-mechanical properties of the material -- 7 - Development of modified Polymethyl methacrylate and Hydroxyapatite (PMMA/HA) Biomaterial composite for Orthopaedic products -- 8 - Conceptual Design for Innovation: Process and A Knowledge-based Approach -- 9 - Establishing product appearance specifications with the identification of user aesthetic needs in product conceptual design -- 10 - Digital transformation of the product design and idea generation process -- Index.

This book focus on the product design process. It follows a holistic approach covering conceptual design, design methodologies, sustainability, manufacturing, product analysis, materials, design and manufacturing technologies. The reader can find interesting cases about industrial design, 3D printing and 4D printing for wearables. The axiomatic design methodology is presented together with applications in machine learning and knowledge-based systems. Research about personalized fashion and professional uniform evaluations methods are included. Finally, the digital transformation, aesthetic design and the use of materials in orthopedic design is present. .
