Advances in Industrial Design
This book addresses current research trends and practice in industrial design. Going beyond the traditional design focus, it explores a range of recent and emerging aspects concerning service design, human–computer interaction and user experience design, sustainable design, virtual and augmented reality, as well as inclusive/universal design, and design for all. A further focus is on apparel and fashion design: here, innovations, developments and challenges in the textile industry, including applications of material engineering, are taken into consideration. Papers on pleasurable and affective design, covering studies on emotional user experience, emotional interaction design and topics re...
Design driven strategies
La raccolta di contributi di questo volume cerca di guardare in avanti, e anche all’indietro, in merito alla centralità del design tra nuovi e tradizionali sistemi produttivi, spazio-ambiente-sostenibilità e identità. Il ruolo del progetto, nella definizione delle forme, materiali e immateriali, è determinante per la loro comprensione e, di conseguenza per costruire partecipazione. Nella maggioranza degli interventi è sottesa la volontà di accrescere la dimensione sociale del design attraverso pratiche partecipative. In altri termini potremmo dire che c’è voglia di dare una dimensione politica al progetto nel senso più pieno della parola. Riconquistare questa dimensione può davvero essere strategico, e per far questo è forse necessario capire come è cambiato e come cambierà il rapporto tra design-produzione-lavoro.
Advances in Additive Manufacturing, Modeling Systems and 3D Prototyping
This book discusses the latest advances in digital modeling systems (DMSs) and additive manufacturing (AM) technologies. It covers applications of networked technologies, ubiquitous computing, new materials and hybrid production systems, discussing how they are changing the processes of conception, modeling and production of products and systems of product. The book emphasizes ergonomic and sustainability issues, as well as timely topics such as DMSs and AM in Industry 4.0, DMSs and AM in developing countries, DMSs and AM in extreme environments, thus highlighting future trends and promising scenarios for further developing those technologies. Based on the AHFE 2019 International Conference on Additive Manufacturing, Modeling Systems and 3D Prototyping, held on July 24-28, 2019, in Washington D.C., USA, the book is intended as source of inspiration for researchers, engineers and stakeholders, and to foster interdisciplinary and international collaborations between them.
Embodying Peripheries
This book combines approaches from the design disciplines, humanities, and social sciences to foster interdisciplinary engagement across geographies around the identities embodied in and of peripheries. Peripheral communities bear human faces and names, necessitating specific modes of inquiry and commitments that prioritize lived human experience and cultural expression. Hence, the peripheries of this book are a question, not a given, the answers to which are contingent forms assembled around embodied identities. Peripheries are urban fringes, periphery countries in the modern world-system, Indigenous lands, occupied territories, or the peripheries of authoritative knowledge, among others. No form can exist outside historical relations of power enacted through knowledge, political structures, laws, and regulations.
Advances in Human Aspects of Transportation
This book discusses the latest advances in the research and development, design, operation, and analysis of transportation systems and their corresponding infrastructures. It presents both theories and case studies on road and rail, aviation, and maritime transportation. Further, it covers a wealth of topics, from accident analysis, intelligent vehicle control, and human-error and safety issues to next-generation transportation systems, model-based design methods, simulation and training techniques, and many more. Special emphasis is placed on smart technologies and automation in transport, as well as the user-centered, ergonomic, and sustainable design of transportation systems. The book, w...

Paper design
Leggerezza, riciclabilità, economicità, transitorietà, naturalità, sostenibilità, progettualità, trasformazione, manualità, innovazione, temporaneità. Sono solo alcuni degli attributi utilizzati per descrivere carta, cartone e cartoncino, da sempre parte del nostro vivere quotidiano. Oggi anche le performance di questi prodotti sono cambiate, grazie ad una ricerca - aziendale e universitaria - capace di proporre, verificare, diffondere e sviluppare applicazioni innovative che raccontano, fra l’altro, la creatività del Paese. Interessato da anni al linguaggio e alle tecnologie d’uso dei materiali sia tradizionali che contemporanei, il Lab MD dell’Università di Ferrara ha promosso, in collaborazione con aziende o associazioni e consorzi di produzione, esplorazioni e sperimentazioni sui modi d’impiego consolidati dei materiali a base cellulosica, promuovendone evoluzioni e applicazioni inedite, innovative nella contemporaneità, dal packaging, all’arredamento, al design for children, al fashion design, all’allestimento e all’architettura.

The Role of Design, Construction, and Real Estate in Advancing the Sustainable Development Goals
This edited book brings together insights from scholars and practitioners from many different fields to uncover the role of the construction and real estate sectors and how they align with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It follows a lifecycle-based approach to the topic, addressing the design, construction, management, investment, and regulatory dimensions of projects in the area. It expands the reader’s understanding of the built environment beyond the design and construction phases, which enables the collection to explore the links and transitions between different project phases and uncover new methodologies that aim to tackle systemic sustainable development challenges. The chapters’ comprehensive coverage allows the collection to capitalize on the strengths and weaknesses of the building industry, highlight emerging trends, and uncover some critical gaps that need to be addressed to attain the 2030 vision. This puts into perspective the interconnected nature of the SDGs and highlights the importance of multi-stakeholder collaborations in achieving them.
