Statistical Concepts in Design

1976
Abstract : In seeking a manageable way to deal with variations for a large range of body sizes, it is a common practice for designers to construct drafting board manikins, three-dimensional forms or computer simulations as human analogues. Often these analogues are based upon 5th, 50th, or 95th percentile values.

Propeller design concepts

International Shipbuilding Progress, 1973
The paper discusses design problems relating to high-speed propellers, with special reference to methods of dealing with cavitation and propeller-induced vibrations. Part I of the paper provides guidance in preliminary design phases when basic design parameters can still be change.

From Design Concepts to Design Descriptions

International Journal of Architectural Computing, 2008
The paper examines the process of articulation and development of design concepts from a computational standpoint. The context of the research is the architectural studio and the process of designing from scratch. The scope of the research is educational. Shape grammar formalism is used in a retrospective analysis, to show how the concept of “porosity”
