Sammanfattning
This thesis shows how a Design Structure Matrix can support the re-design process of
an aircraft cabin interior component - stowage. It presents an approach to identifying
challenges of design change introduction in aircraft products and demonstrates how
a modular product design can address them. First, the stowage was modeled with a
DSM and a risk analysis was performed on the baseline design. Specific stages of the
Change Prediction Method (Clarkson et al., 2001) were used to evaluate interfaces
between product components in different design domains. Furthermore, DSM served
as an input for clustering operations, which were a foundation for modular stowage
design. As a result, a modular product architecture was created including new
re-designed interfaces. The results show that the modular design approach can
reduce the risk of change while increasing product customization and the number of
configuration alternatives
