16 Conclusions 31 Research Conclusions Project successfully developed an evaluation methodology for alternative materials in engineering applications that comprehends performance and context 1. If structural requirements are relaxed, injection molding solution will be the lowest cost alternative solution 2. If structural requirements are not relaxed, RTM is competitive with the baseline solution below 75,000 pairs per year, before paint costs 3. Optimizations to the baseline manufacturing scenario can reduce baseline manufacturing costs up to 29%. 4. Under optimized manufacturing conditions (press, labor, and blank optimization), all alternative metal solutions are cheaper than the baseline, and are competitive with RTM at production volumes greater than 35,000 65,000 pairs/year 32
17 University-Industry Collaboration Conclusions Project was a laboratory for experimenting with techniques for collaboration amongst academic and industrial partners with a variety of backgrounds and expertise. Lessons learned include: 1. Regular communication among team members is essential 2. Initial specification of the problem itself is paramount 3. Common framework and established milestones are mandatory 4. Extremely engaging research, with expertise from different groups 5. Building relations on trust among team members is difficult, but essential 33
