Morphological Approach to the Automation of Design Proposals for Engineering Systems

  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract—Discursive and intuitive methods that may be used in developing design proposals for engineering systems are considered. One option is an expanded morphological approach. By that means, the structuring of the problem may be refined and ordered; the validity of the solution may be improved; and the set of possible choices may be broadened. As a result, systems of higher quality may be developed.
