Have you ever thought about how and why something was designed? Who was considered a “stakeholder” for the design? And what biases are baked within the process of designing something? These are some ...

The goal of engineering design is to address physical needs using practical, analytical, and technical skills to develop robust, efficient, and appropriate solutions. Unlike many of the calculations ...

Programmable material systems are emerging architectural structures but the co-design of structure, material, and external stimuli present grand challenges. A team with Northwestern Engineering’s Wei ...

Generative design helps engineers explore design, delivering 30-50% faster time-to-market, 10-50% weight reductions, and up ...

Modular process design represents a transformative approach in chemical engineering that utilises standardised and pre‐engineered units to assemble production facilities. This strategy facilitates ...
