EXPECTED RESULTS AND CONTRIBUTION
RESEARCH PROBLEM STATEMENT
In general, not every function performed by a product is desired. In particular, some of the undesired product functions can have a damaging impact on the product itself and/or on the product environment. The earlier a design error is discovered, the less expenses its correction causes. Early capturing and processing the requirements originating from undesired product functions will improve the product quality and at the same time reduce the product development time.
GOALS
SCIENTIFIC SOCIAL
• To support the designer in the early design phases of clarification of the task and conceptual design by providing new methods and computer-supported tools• To improve product quality and concomitantly reduce the number of iteration cycles during product design
To improve the understanding in and the sensibility towards the genesis of undesired product functions from principle solutions and its impact on the product itself and/or ist environment

HYPOTHESIS
Elicitating the requirements originating from undesired product functions during conceptual design will improve the product quality, reliability and safety and will decrease product costs.
RESEARCH APPROACH AND METHODS
Analysis of physical effects with regard to negativ effects Derivation of undesired product functions from such negative effects Development of a method for the assessment of the impact of undesired functions on the product and its environment Development of a method for the elicitation of new requirements from undesired functions with intolerably high impact on the product or on its environment Modeling the process of elicitation of new requirements from undesired product functions Implementation and verification of the concept
