A corporation which is aiming to create a world class brand should evaluate its existing product portfolio as a first step to configure its future products better. Therefore, this study is performed with the collaboration of Temsa Global Company, who desires to create a global brand in the commercial vehicle area: Temsa. The aim of the study is to find out the relationship between the brand specific design characteristics and visual product design features with a semantic approach, through a case study on a local commercial vehicle manufacturer: Temsa Global Company.

The complexity of technical systems has increased significantly in order to address evolving customer needs and environmental concerns. From a product development process viewpoint, the pervasive nature of multi-disciplinary systems (i.e. mechanical, electrical, electronic, control, software) has brought some important integration challenges to overcome conventional disciplinary boundaries imposed by discipline specific approaches. This research focuses on functional reasoning, aiming to develop a structured framework based on the System State Flow Diagram (SSFD) for function modelling of complex multidisciplinary systems on a practical and straightforward basis. The framework is developed at two stages. 1) The development of a prototype for the SSFD framework. The proposed SSFD framework are tested and validated through application to selected desktop case studies. 2) Further development and extension of the SSFD framework for the analysis of complex multidisciplinary systems with multiple operation modes and functional requirements. The developed framework is validated on real world case studies collaborated with industrial partners. The main conclusion of this research is that the SSFD framework offers a rigorous and coherent function modelling methodology for the analysis of complex multidisciplinary systems. Further advantages of the SSFD framework is that 1) the effectiveness of the Failure Mode Avoidance (FMA) process can be enhanced by integrating the SSFD framework with relevant tools of the FMA process, and 2) the integration of the SSFD with the SysML systems engineering diagrams is doable, which can promote the take-up of the approach in industry.

Das laufende Forschungsvorhaben gliedert sich in drei Untersuchungsbereiche. In der vorliegenden Veröffentlichung werden die Ergebnisse der bereits durchgeführten, ersten qualitativen Befragung mit Designmanagern, Designern und Entwicklungsfachleuten dargestellt. Befragt wurden hierbei sowohl Unternehmen als auch Designagenturen, die für diese Unternehmen als externe Dienstleister arbeiten. Es wird gezeigt, welche internen und externen Anwender im Designprozess eingebunden werden und welche Methoden dazu verwendet werden. Auch der Zeitpunkt, wann Anwender im Designprozess integriert werden, ist Teil der Auswertung. Ergänzt werden diese Daten durch die Darstellung der möglichen Chancen und Risiken, die in Bezug auf eine Anwenderintegration gesehen werden Einer strategischen Anwenderintegration werden generell große Chancen eingeräumt, es ist jedoch nicht klar, wie man diese sinnvoll und ergebnisorientiert in einen Designprozess implementiert. Die Auswertung der Anwenderdaten stellt bislang die größte Hürde für eine Anwenderintegration dar.

Ausgangssituation In den beiden vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat die Product Lifecycle Management (PLM)-Durchdringung industrieller Unternehmen stetig zugenommen. Dies betrifft die verschiedenen Engineering-Disziplinen (Mechanik, Elektrik, Software, Hydraulik etc.) und immer stärker auch die der Produktentwicklung nachgelagerten Produktlebenszyklus-Phasen (Produktionsplanung, Service etc.) (Abramovici & Schindler 2010, Rudolph & Dietrich 2003). Als ein Ergebnis der zunehmenden PLM-Durchdringung existieren heute in vielen Unternehmen mehrere PLM-Umgebungen parallel, die in verschiedenen Unternehmensteilbereichen historisch gewachsen sind. Diese PLM-Umgebungen sind meist stark an bereichsspezifischen Anforderungen orientiert, aber nicht oder nur teilweise aufeinander abgestimmt. Zusätzlich zu dieser organischen Entwicklung innerhalb der Unternehmen erhöhen Fusionen und Übernahmen von Unternehmen oder Unternehmensteilbereichen die PLM-Heterogenität sprunghaft. Sichtbar wird die PLM-Heterogenität meist an der hohen Anzahl der eingesetzten PLM-Systeme (Abramovici & Schindler 2010), sie kann jedoch gleichermaßen Strategie-, Prozess- und Methoden-bezogene PLM-Komponenten sowie die PLM-Akteure betreffen (Abramovici & Göbel 2011). Der ungeplanten Heterogenität industrieller PLM-Landschaften stehen zunehmend global verteilte und sich permanent verändernde Engineering- Organisationsstrukturen gegenüber (Trippner 2002). Vor diesem Hintergrund können nicht aufeinander abgestimmte PLMUmgebungen drastische Hemmnisse für die Erreichung übergeordneter Unternehmens-Zielsetzungen, wie etwa die Produktivität und Flexibilität bei bereichsübergreifenden Kooperationen oder bei unternehmensinternen Reorganisationsvorhaben, bilden.

In the last decades, the rapid change and prevalent use of technology are concerning, as they induced effects which mainly altered various encompassing contexts like consumer market dynamics and product development processes. Evidently, these transformations also affect the way users interact with products. It is observed that, technological novelties are applied in the competitive market as a tool for product differentiation. In addition, the rapid development of these technologies is a dominating factor on shortening product lifecycles. Resulting from these two factors, implementing latest technologies in new products is interpreted by producers as an absolute way of achieving market success. Consequently, most of the products in everyday life are designed with a primary aim to implement latest technological advances, without appropriate consideration of user requirements and characteristics. The phenomenon has negative consequences on product usability. This study basically examines the usability problems that are related with digital technology impelementations in consumer products. The evaluations are based on the contexts such as: changes in contemporary market conditions with the effects of the recent technological developments, technology-driven approaches in product development processes and the transformative consequences of digital technology applications on user-product interaction. Literature surveys are employed as method. Finally, interaction characteristics of digital products and the contexts in which they are used are evaluated and it is argued that, the usability problems are due to the deficiency in evaluations of user characteristics and requirements during the product development processes, in general terms.

This study argues that including aspects of user experience relevant to the user's knowledge of a product's context-of-use in the early stages of product design can enhance the design of product usability. To explore these issues, research was undertaken to respond to three research questions: (i) What aspects of user experience influence people's understanding of product usability? (ii) What is the nature of the differences between users' and designers' understandings of product usability? (iii) How can context-of-use and human experience enhance the design of product usability? Findings from the study have shown that experience, context-of-use and knowledge about a product's usability are interrelated. Conceptual principles and design principles were established based on findings to explain (i) the relationships between aspects of experience and areas of product usability and (ii) differences between designers' and users' concepts of product usability. These principles responded to the first two research questions. Causal relationships found between experience and product usability suggested the need to implement them in an accessible manner for a product design process. A design tool -- named the Experience and Context Enquiry Design Tool (ECEDT) -- was devised to exemplify the implementation of findings. A trial run verified that the type of information that ECEDT brings to designers could assist them to address usability and experience issues during the early stages of the design process. This result responded to the third research question of the study. This study's conceptual principles and design principles contribute new knowledge to design theory and practice. This knowledge contributes to design theory in providing greater detail about the differences between designers and users than that addressed by existing theory; it contributes to design practice as it informs designers about the aspects of human experience that prompt users' understanding of a product's use. In doing so, it can potentially assist in the design of products that embed new technological applications, and support the design of product usability.

The diploma thesis is focused on gamification and possibility of using gamification elements in the field of tourism. The aim of this work is to present gamification as a tool for influencing tourist behavior and to design an own product with gamification elements. In the theoretical part of the thesis a definition of gamification is analyzed alongside with the game elements and game thinking, which constitute the essence of this phenomenon, and the types of motivation of players and travelers are presented. Subsequently, a framework for gamification design is described. The fifth chapter defines the basic notions of tourism and introduces ways of using gamification in tourism. The theoretical part ends by chapters six and seven, where possible risks of using gamification as well as the most successful examples of its implementation are described. The practical part is devoted to the description of a new gamified product including graphic design and the timetable of introduction of the application to the market.
