    Methodical Framework for the Development of Customer-Specific Product Families based on Modular Product Structures
    The megatrend of individualization requires manufacturing companies to improve the fulfillment of customer-specific requirements by their products, which will increase the success of a company, for example through competitive advantages or better customer loyalty. However, increasing external variety goes hand in hand with increased internal variety. The advantages of differentiation are offset by the increase in variant-induced complexity, which leads to higher costs overall - especially the so-called complexity costs. The only way to counteract this is to adopt the opposite strategy of standardization, which, however, does not allow products to be further differentiated or even individualized. While the development of modular product architectures already overcomes methodically variant-induced complexity for variant-rich products in the conflict between standardization and differentiation, the ideal fulfillment of customer requirements is still likely to be oversized, when completely predefined product variants are considered. Customer-specific product adaptation as a solution strategy for reducing oversizing is considered in the literature, but so far it has been considered in isolation and without any connection and integration as a possible solution strategy in the design of modular product architectures. The tension between standardization and differentiation thereby reaches a further level of consideration, where not only a decision for a standardized or variant solution must be made, but also a consideration between variant design or a design exactly adapted to customer-specific requirements. Up to now, there is no consistent methodical support for this in the literature.At this point, this project starts by developing a method that supports the design of modular product structures with customer specific modules and thus further develops the modular product architecture to a modular-customized product architecture in order to avoid oversizing in an idealized way. In the consideration of modular product architectures, which are subject to the conflicting efforts of standardization vs. differentiation, this project adds the new, contradictory efforts between differentiation vs. individualization. The new method will be developed and tested using product examples with sufficient data of other research projects.

    Individualisierte Flow Diversion Behandlung
    Intrakranielle Aneurysmen sind krankhafte Erweiterungen der Hirngefäße, die bei einer Ruptur (Aufreißen) gefährliche Hirnblutungen auslösen können. Um dem vorzubeugen, kann ein Aneurysma mithilfe eines Flow Diverters behandelt werden. Ziel des Verbundprojekts „Individualisierte Flow Diversion Behandlung“ (BELUCCI), das in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Unternehmen Acandis, dem Universitätsklinikum Hamburg Eppendorf und dem Institut für Mechanik der Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg bearbeitet wird, ist die Erforschung und Validierung eines Ansatzes, mit dem eine patientenspezifische Fertigung und/oder Auswahl von Flow Divertern nach individuellen Anforderungen erfolgen kann. Dadurch sollen Komplikationen während und nach der Behandlung von Hirngefäßaneurysmen mit dem Flow Diverter verringert und die Versorgungsqualität gesteigert werden. Das Teilvorhaben „Methodische Unterstützung zur individualisierungsgerechten Produktentwicklung und Weiterentwicklung eines In-Vitro Gefäßmodells zur Validierung“ verfolgt zwei Teilziele: Das erste Teilziel besteht in der Entwicklung eines methodischen Vorgehens zur Erfüllung kundenindividueller Anforderungen, mit dem ein komplexitätsarmes Vorgehen bei der wiederholten Berücksichtigung individueller Anforderungen unterstützt werden soll. Im zweiten Teilziel sollen patientenspezifische Aneurysmamodelle aus der additiven Fertigung bezüglich ihrer haptischen Eigenschaften optimiert werden, um eine Evaluation der individualisierten Flow Diverter zu ermöglichen.
