Proposal for a Product Classification Strategy for the AI-Assisted Generative Design Approach in Industrial Design Process
Abstract
There are numerous product types where the design processes surpass the product lifespan. This circumstance increasingly emphasizes the significance of time management in design processes over time. The generative design approach stands out compared to traditional design processes by generating alternative forms in a shorter timeframe. In the field of industrial design, the utilization of generative design is relatively recent compared to areas like architecture and computer technologies. The integration of AI-supported generative design algorithms into CAD software has eliminated barriers requiring software and programming knowledge, rendering generative design more feasible for designers. While there are numerous studies in the literature on topics such as generative design systems, the advantages provided by generative systems and their application areas, shortcoming have been observed in research evaluating the feasibility of generative design according to products. This study aims to propose a product classification strategy for the generative design approach in industrial design processes. Within the scope of the study, form classes, structural types in product design and example products created with generative design were examined through the working system of Fusion 360 Generative Design and a product classification strategy for the generative design approach has been suggested. A pilot study was conducted to test the proposed classification strategy within the scope of the study. Trials for form creation were conducted with two expert designers in three categories. Feedback was collected through interview and observation notes. The experts have expressed the view that the proposed classification is consistent with the working system of generative design and the concept of usability.
