Züfle, MarcMarcZüfleKrause, DieterDieterKrause2023-09-252023-09-25202333rd CIRP Design Conference - Procedia CIRP 119: 938–943 (2023)https://hdl.handle.net/11420/43348Product systems no longer consist merely of discrete components that can be designed and developed independently. Instead, the product systems take on an increasingly complex shape, reflected in product architecture development. Various stakeholders in this product architecture must collaborate across life phases and disciplines to an increasing extent. To support the exchange in multi-disciplinary product systems in the context of modularization, the visualization tool of the "Module Harmonization Chart (MHC)" is presented in this paper. The "MHC" enables the representation of components in a multi-disciplinary system, thus supporting cross-disciplinary collaboration in developing an integrated modular design. Aspects such as discipline-specific module drivers and targeted sub-system segments can be used to address a holistic module design and improve overall system integration.en2212-8271Procedia CIRP2023938943Elsevierhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/collaboration tooldesign harmonizationmodular designmulti-disziplinary designproduct architectureElectrical Engineering, Electronic EngineeringMulti-disciplinary product design and modularization : concept introduction of the Module Harmonization Chart (MHC)Conference Paper10.15480/882.859210.1016/j.procir.2023.03.13810.15480/882.8592Conference Paper
