工程设计的统一理论。(2005年12月)Scott Patrick Dyas，B.S.，德克萨斯A&M大学咨询委员会主席：Thomas R.Lalk博士：提出了一种具有普遍意义和科学基础的设计理论模型。通过这样做，相信工程设计的实践性可以得到显著的提高。一个更好的建模设计系统是需要开发的缺失成分，以便以上述方式改进设计实践。审查了现有的方法，以检查工程设计的现状。这有助于制定一套新方法的要求。还讨论了改进工程设计实践的科学方法论的潜力。开发一种科学的设计理论，并证明它符合这些要求，就是为了满足目标。该理论采用设计概念模型的形式，它将问题的重要方面与解决方案联系起来，以促进真正的自上而下的分层方法。给出了几个例子，说明了该方法如何应用于现实世界的设计问题。因此，作为本研究项目的一部分，创建了设计的理论框架。新的方法论被称为工程设计的统一理论(UTED)，解决了设计的许多重要方面，这些方面被其他方法论所忽视。制定了一套规则，以指导设计师完成设计，并允许使用更科学的过程。使设计更具科学性会增加实现成功设计的可能性。主要结论是，可以建立一种科学的设计理论，使设计过程更快、更高效，并提高所产生的设计质量，这意味着这种方法有很大的潜力对工程设计领域产生积极影响。
A Unified Theory of Engineering Design. (December 2005) Scott Patrick Dyas, B.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Thomas R. Lalk A theoretical model of design, that is universal and has a scientific basis, was developed. By doing so, it is believed that the practice of engineering design can be significantly improved. A better system of modeling designs is the missing ingredient that needs to be developed in order to improve the practice of design in the manner suggested above. Existing methodologies were reviewed to examine the current state of engineering design. This helped in developing a set of requirements for a new methodology. The potential for a scientific methodology to improve the practice of engineering design is also discussed. Developing a scientific theory of design, and showing that it meets these requirements was done to satisfy the objective. The theory takes the form of a conceptual model of design, which relates important aspects of the problem and the solution to facilitate a truly top-down hierarchical approach. A few examples are given to show how the methodology can be applied to real world design problems. As a result, a theoretical framework for design was created as a part of this research project. The new methodology, termed UTED (Unified Theory of Engineering Design), addresses many important aspects of design which are overlooked by other methodologies. A set of rules was developed, to guide the designer through the design, and allow a more scientific process to be used. Making design more scientific increases the likelihood of achieving a successful design. The primary conclusions are that the development of a scientific theory of design can be created that makes design processes faster and more efficient, and improves the quality of designs produced, meaning there is a strong potential for such a methodology to have a positive impact on the field of engineering design.
