European boat design innovation group: The Marine Design Manifesto
- 2014
-
In: RINA, Royal Institution of Naval Architects - Marine Design, Papers. - 9781909024298 ; , s. 1-29
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- A manifesto is a published verbal declaration of the intentions, motives, or views of an issue. It accepts a previously published opinion and promotes a new idea with prescriptive notions for carrying out changes that the authors believe should be made. Marine Design is presented as an interdisciplinary holistic approach to boat design, based on the methodologies of Industrial Design, which are informed by both Human Factors and Engineering. The authors as experts in their respective disciplines present the Marine Design Manifesto as a framework for innovation within the marine industry. In every professional field there are definitive texts, this paper provides advocacy for Marine Design, an interdisciplinary approach in its infancy. The authors review key Industrial Design manifestos in the context of Marine Design. They then present a contextualised Marine Design manifesto. © 2014: The Royal Institution of Naval Architects.

Collaborative quality enhancement in engineering education : an overview of operational models at a programme level
- 2020
-
In: European Journal of Engineering Education. - : TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD. - 0304-3797 .- 1469-5898. ; 45:1, s. 73-88
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article discusses the tension between quality assurance and quality enhancement in engineering education at a programme level. It acknowledges that accreditation has evolved for many years, but does not agilely support innovation or implement changes in educational programmes. Existing quality assurance systems, institutional collaboration networks, as well as new innovative quality enhancement models and processes are described, contrasted and synthesised. Quality enhancement is analysed based on its function as a source of inspiration and dissemination of good practice. The article reflects on a novel and more collaborative approach to quality enhancement, built on the foundations of specific pedagogical standards and rubrics (e.g. CDIO). One solution leading to real continuous quality enhancement could be flexible and agile evaluation processes. These are founded on measurement and rating frameworks and complemented with quality assurance for engineering education. Incremental enhancement is based on relevant needs identified collaboratively between programmes.

Design-driven innovation: Mothership concepts for accessing the far shore wind farms
- 2014
-
In: RINA, Royal Institution of Naval Architects - Design and Operation of Wind Farm Support Vessels, Papers. - 9781909024236 ; , s. 91-110

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Industrial Design is the fusion of applied art and applied science to improve the aesthetics, human factors, functionality and usability of a product or system. The objective of Industrial Design is to study both function and form, and the connection between product, the user and the operational environment. The role of an Industrial Designer is to create and execute design solutions for problems of form, usability and human factors. Although the design process may be considered 'creative', it has a structured workflow involving many analytical processes, and is generally executed by an interdisciplinary team. Many industrial designers use various design methodologies in their creative process such as User Centred Design, Emotional Design and Design-Driven Innovation. Recent research has indicated that current wind farm support vessels will not be appropriate for accessing far shore wind farms. In order to improve operability of WFSV accessing the far shore wind farms, mothership vessels will be required. Extrapolating the European Wind Energy Association's (EWEA) growth scenario for the period up till 2030 employment in the installation, operation and maintenance, of offshore wind farms is expected to produce skilled employment of 851,400. To meet this demand it will be necessary to recruit land based technicians. Therefore, next generation motherships will need to address the user needs and aspirations of a new generation of technicians, who may not have previous marine experience. This paper presents several mothership concept design proposals, that challenge perceptions of the working and living environment on commercial vessels by using Design-Driven Innovation to create next generation vessels.
