Abstract
This project is a study of Design for Environment (DFE) and Design for Sustainability (DFS). The objective of the project is to understand the concept of DFE and DFS as well as tools and methods used for Windshield wiper to be more sustainable and to identify its effect on the environment. Both of concepts are considered as a new design for ‘X’, therefore a very detail literature review on DFS and its tools are needed. Basically the literature review covers general background, key elements in the concepts, and methods used to practice DFE and DFS. Beside that the literature review includes study of the general background on windshield wiper like parts and system on windshields wiper. The project began with doing survey to car accessory shops and supermarkets to find a popular windshield wiper for proton waja to be a model. Two analysis bases on DFE and DFS were used to measure the bad impact for each part of windshield wiper to the environment. Before the analysis of DFE and DFS start, the type of material for all windshield wiper part must recognize by using X-ray diffraction machine. After that, software material selection (CES EduPack) has used to find the right material to replace the material of windshield wiper part which gives bad impact on the environment. Lastly, the final analysis using DFS (Solidwok Express sustainability) to make a comparison between the current material and new material in term of environmental
