Abstract

Customer demands play a very important role in the evaluation and decision of product design scheme. This paper introduces a method for converting customer demands knowledge into product configuration knowledge, and applies this method to evaluate product design scheme. The importance degree of customer demands was analyzed through analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method and prior weight of was calculated. Then prior weight was combined with revised weight, which was gained by the entropy theory. In this way, the result avoids the disadvantage of AHP of over-subjective and the disadvantage of entropy method of absolute impersonal without the support of experts. The method optimized the weight of each product design evaluation index and truly reflected the customer demands. Finally, an example of stroller design was given to verify the feasibility and advantages of the method.
