Rapid prototyping processes, part of design thinking, can lead to an abundance of fresh ideas. In last week’s column, we shared how biopharmaceutical company AbbVie uses design thinking to humanize ...

The first article in this two-part series (OGJ, May 6, 2013, p. 94) presented four process safety examples of possible inadequate overpressure protection design in amine natural gas sweetening, glycol ...

In today's fast-paced digital world, where development cycles move faster and consumer expectations are higher than ever, design thinking has become the foundation of human-centered problem-solving.

Every building starts with an idea. But how do you get from a concept to a piece of architecture? Why do some ideas work better than others? What is a "good" design? Questions like these can make ...

MEMS-based component suppliers want to rapidly ramp their designs into high-volume production. This demand is driving MEMS suppliers to focus on ways to more efficiently re-use established process ...

Analytical simulation and modeling of unit manufacturing processes based on knowledge of the underlying process physics and validated by experimental results is becoming a powerful tool to advance the ...

Building performance is a hallmark of architecture in the 21st century. With buildings and the construction industry being significant contributors to carbon emissions, designers must do everything to ...
