Design of Biomedical Devices and Systems, Second Edition Richard C. Fries 1.º edición

Analyzing product conception through delivery in actual industry examples, this text considers issues in the industrial design process exactly as they would arise in real-world applications, divulging valuable trade secrets within topics like materials selection, safety, prototyping, premarket testing and validation, liability, and learning from failure. The authors discuss product definition, development, marketing, verification, and validation, elucidate the QFD process, and address engineering licensure and codes of ethics. They also introduce new concepts in hardware and software design, including the use of computer tools to predict and document safety-related design issues.
