Preface
This book of proceedings contains papers that have been peer-reviewed and accepted for
the 28th ISTE International Conference on Transdisciplinary Engineering, organized by
the University of Bath, United Kingdom, July 5–9, 2021. TE2021 has been the second
conference in the series that was organized in a virtual manner due to the COVID-19
world-wide crisis. The papers published in this book of proceedings, as well as video
presentations, were accessible from July 5 till July 9 in Teams, while questions and an-
swers were being exchanged.
This is the tenth issue of the series “Advances in Transdisciplinary Engineering”,
which publishes the proceedings of the TE (formerly: CE) conference series and accom-
panying events. The TE conference series is organized annually by the International So-
ciety of Transdisciplinary Engineering, in short ISTE (www.intsoctransde.org), formerly
called International Society of Productivity Enhancement (ISPE, Inc.) and constitutes an
important forum for international scientific exchange on transdisciplinary engineering.
These international conferences attract a significant number of researchers, industry ex-
perts and students, as well as government representatives, who are interested in recent
advances in transdisciplinary engineering research, advancements, and applications.
The concept of Transdisciplinary Engineering transcends Concurrent Engineering
(CE). The concept of CE, developed in the 80’s, implies that different phases of a product
life cycle are conducted concurrently and initiated as early as possible within the Product
Creation Process (PCP), including the implications of this approach within the extended
enterprise and networks. The main goal of CE is to increase the efficiency and effective-
ness of the PCP and to reduce errors in the later phases, as well as to incorporate consid-
erations for the full lifecycle, through-life operations, and environmental issues. In the
past decades, CE has become the substantive basic methodology in many industries (e.g.,
automotive, aerospace, machinery, shipbuilding, consumer goods, process industry, en-
vironmental engineering) and is also adopted in the development of new services and
service support. Collaboration between different disciplines is key to successful CE. The
main focus, though, is an engineering focus.
While for several decades CE proved its value in many industries and still continues
to do so, many current engineering problems require a more encompassing approach.
Many engineering problems have a large impact on society. The context of these prob-
lems needs to be taken into account. For example, the development of self-driving cars
requires taking into account changes in regulations for managing responsibilities, adap-
tation to road networks, political decisions, infrastructures for energy supply, etc. The
impacted society may also be the business environment of networks of companies and
supply chains. For example, the adoption and implementation of Industry 4.0 requires
taking into account the changes to be expected in the business environment, the people,
their jobs, the knowledge needed, technology, organizational rules and behaviours. These
kind of engineering problems also require collaboration, but not only between technical
disciplines. Disciplines from other scientific fields need to be incorporated in the engi-
neering process, like disciplines from social sciences (governance, psychology, etc.),
law, medicine, or other fields, relevant for the problem at hand.

quality dimensions and ways to adapt to changed service-quality demands. Paper 15 con-
tains a literature study and case studies into the level of alignment between product de-
velopment and production. Several problems have been identified.
Part 5 is entitled Product Systems and contains 13 papers. Paper one contains a
comparison between two tools for predicting human effort and ergonomic risk related to
a series of tasks. In paper two, the TRIZ approach is applied to the non-trivial design of
a Wire Electric Discharge Machining (WEDM). The work presented in paper three is an
exploration of the possibility to analyse the performance of production lines through dig-
ital models. In paper four, a proposal is presented of an associative framework between
processes and related data, which are following the recommendations of currently ap-
plied frameworks for Business Process Management and Big Data Analytics. In paper
five, a literature study is described on APSs, as well as the impact of Industry 4.0 on the
development of these systems. Paper six contains a simulation model developed for al-
lowing the selection of appropriate parameters of a power supply system and a drive
system for an electric go-kart to meet criteria assumed. In paper seven, research is pre-
sented into semantic and syntactic knowledge boundaries that play a role in introducing
new products with its accompanying production processes. Paper eight contains a litera-
ture study into Advanced Manufacturing, the results of which have been applied to an
experimental case. In paper nine, an exploration is presented of opportunities for Ka-
zakhstan to recycle CFPR waste originating in this country and neighbouring countries.
Paper 10 contains an exploration of the possibility to automate the design of a wing
structure. In paper 11, the possibility of supporting the vertical take-off and landing un-
manned aerial vehicle electric power systems by means of photovoltaic cells. An ap-
proach for optimizing floor plans using data collected from workplaces and a physics-
based planning algorithm utilizing GPU-acceleration is presented in paper 12. In paper
13, a research step is presented to develop a methodology for designing and analysing a
propeller, which can be used in a calculation backgound for a CAD model.
Part 6 contains 11 contributions on Individual and Teams. In paper one, a demon-
stration Is presented of a virtual tour in a cheese factory. The multi-faceted nature of a
virtual tour is highlighted. Paper two contains a design of a rescue helicopter that can
approach mountain tops and dangerous terrains. In paper three, a new AR/VR method-
ology is presented that allows an operator to touch any object in a virtual cabin design of
a medical helicopter. Feedback from medical professionals is included. A patent portfo-
lio analysis for VR tools is presented in paper four. Promising areas for further develop-
ment in the medical domain have been identified. Paper five contains a patent analysis
to discover trends in HCPSs in manufacturing. In paper six, an approach is presented to
enhance human perspectives by introducing a semiotic framework for representing dif-
ferent aspects of human and organizational meaning formation. The approach is illus-
trated in a translational medicine organization. Paper seven contains a demonstration of
a technology to detect behavioural states of team members during a meeting. In paper
eight, a numerical method is presented that is a good step towards systematic design of
attractive product shapes. In paper nine, a first design iteration is demonstrated in which
a framework is applied that provide disciplines guidelines for achieving health-related
objectives. Paper 10 contains a specification of a generic user interface that makes com-
putational systems models more accessible to non-technical decision makers. Finally,
paper 11 is a research paper containing research into the generation of a functional struc-
ture of a product connected with a Multi-interfaces Entity Model that supports risk as-
sessment.
