(PRLeap.com) Conceptual Design for African Engineers, a new book by Samuel Olu Atolagbe & Dr. Ademola Dare, has been released by RoseDog Books.Conceptual Design for African Engineers is made for engineers in product development in order to provide intellectual guidance in developing engineering products. It is especially designed to assist graduate engineers working as entrepreneurs in product development. Various steps such as product need identification, product specification, product conceptual design, selection of product ideas, and prototype testing are discussed. These are complemented by discussions on standardization of products and ergonomics.
This work discusses these topics so a graduate engineer can be informed on what to do to develop an engineering product for the market, especially in a developing country, and can be used by either undergraduates or graduates.
The goal for this guide is to address the situation in which graduate engineers are not able to design simple machines. An engineer going through this educational book thoughtfully will be able to create an engineering product that can be made and sold.
