Abstract

For the features of complex product design knowledge, this study suggests a way of complex product design knowledge modeling based on Living systems theory. First, an in-depth analysis of the different levels defined in the LST and the functions of the twenty subsystems in the LST is performed. The structure and process parameters are also analyzed. This is done based on the common features of complex products and living systems. Then, a mapping model of the LST and complex products is created. This model is then used in the modeling of the design knowledge of complex products, including the various layers, functionalities, and structural and process parameters of the complex product in question. Finally, a case is studied to elaborate the implementation of the presented method and validate the effectiveness and practicability.
