Abstract
With the improvement of customer awareness, companies have begun developing various diversified designs to meet customer needs. Make the designer face the challenge of multiple customer needs and then increase the difficulty of understanding. Taking a hairdryer as an example, this study applies Fuzzy Interpretive Structural Modeling (FISM) to analyze the interdependence of product design attributes. To effectively clarify the critical design factors and to describe the complex interdependence between each other. The research results show that by analyzing the logical sequence of attributes and transforming them into structured association diagrams and hierarchical diagrams. Structural association diagrams and hierarchical diagrams can help designers identify independent or dependent design factors. It is also possible to identify the interplay between key elements and desired attributes.
Keywords
