Abstract
A new method of selection of materials at the design step is presented in this paper. The method takes into recyclability of materials. The authors compare the effectiveness of neural networks (a multilayer perceptron, radial basis function networks, and self-organizing feature map - SOFM networks) as modelling tools aiding the selection of compatible materials in ecodesign. The best artificial neural networks were used in an expert system. The input data for the selection of materials was start point to initiate the study. The input data, specified in cooperation with designers, include both technological and environmental parameters which guarantee the desired compatibility of materials. Next, models were developed using the selected neural networks. The models were assessed and implemented into an expert system. The authors show which models best fit their purpose and why. Models aiding the compatible materials selection help boost the recycling properties of designed products. Neural networks are a very good tool to support the selection of materials in the ecodesign. This has been proven in the article.
