一种不同于用于研究的方法可能更适合于设计和工程项目。本文比较了研究和设计的目的和方法,得出结论,虽然他们的目的不同,但他们目前的方法是相同的。 研究或科学方法论-以分析为标志-被证明限制了设计解决方案的有效性。为了实现有效的设计解决方案,需要一种与研究方法截然不同的方法。 本文报告的研究,试图描绘出在各个领域的优秀专业人士使用的实际策略。结果发现,这些专家,虽然在不同的领域,有很强的相似性,每个使用的战略步骤。 以功能确定和理想系统开发为标志的经验十步设计策略的应用显示出比基于研究方法的传统策略更好的结果。 建议进行更多的研究来验证这些早期的结论,并使所述的设计策略更有效。
A methodology other than that used for research may be more appropriate for designing and engineering projects. This paper compares the purposes and methodologies of research and of designing, and concludes that while their purposes are different, their current methodologies are the same. The research or scientific methodology---with analysis as its hallmark---is shown to restrict the effectiveness of a design solution. To achieve an effective design solution, a methodology distinctly different from the research methodology is required. This paper reports on research which attempted to delineate the actual strategies used by outstanding professionals in various fields. It was found that such experts, although in different fields, have strong similarities in the steps of the strategy each used. The applications of an empirical ten-step design strategy with function determination and ideal systems development as hallmarks have shown much better results than conventional strategies based on the research methodology. Additional research is suggested to verify these early conclusions and to make the stated design strategy more effective.
