Abstract

Axiomatic Design (AD) is a fundamental methodology in engineering and quality management, offering a structured framework for addressing complex design challenges. Since its inception, Axiomatic Design has been proven to be an effective tool for a systematic and robust design process. this paper discusses the history and development of the Axiomatic Design approach showing the current trends like its applications in sustainable design, autonomous systems, smart manufacturing and applications of Industry 4.0 and Artificial intelligence. This study proposes a systematic methodology to use Scopus database to review the areas where Axiomatic Design approach was applied. The proposed methodology resulted in synthesized set of publications that was used to categorize the applications of the Axiomatic Design approach. Product development and process improvement categories were found to be the most common applications of the axiomatic design approach. Most of process improvement applications focuses on the production process management and improvement which proves that axiomatic design has great potential to be applied in the industrial sector to provide new successful products and decrease the time to market.
