Axiomatic design is a systems design methodology using matrix methods to systematically analyze the transformation of customer needs into functional requirements, design parameters, and process variables. Specifically, a set of functional requirements (FRs) are related to a set of design parameters (DPs) by a Design Matrix A: [ F R 1 F R 2 ] = [ A 11 A 12 A 21 A 22 ] [ D P 1 D …
