5. Design for the future
– liberating design for sustainable creativity
The industrial revolution in design and engineering means:
• Innovative new products and systems
 Customer as a designer
• New ways of liberating design and engineering creativity
 Artificial intelligence as a designer
• Ability to design optimised solutions beyond their lifecycle
 Design for lifecycle excellence

7. VTT ProperTune™
• A computational modelling assisted
materials design, tailoring and
performance evaluation
methodology and a software
platform
• Used for optimising material
properties
VTT ProperTuneTM
service-product is designed
to solve material issues

8. “VTT ProperTune™
optimises material design,
replacing expensive, time
consuming testing and
shortening time-to-market
for new products by an
average of 50%.”
Anssi Laukkanen
Principal Scientist, VTT
Material optimization brings new
possibilities to product design

9. VTT ProperTune™
for the design of wear
resistant solutions
• VTT developed and applied a modelling
toolset based on the VTT ProperTune™
multiscale modelling solution
• Enables design of novel solutions integrating
material, component and system level
features

10. “The creation of an engineering tool, together with the
connection between tests at material and system level,
helped to inspire use. We shall take advantage of this
newly acquired knowledge based on VTT ProperTune
developments, in our future products.”
Petteri Valjus, Technology Manager R&D
Key Technologies
KONE Oyj

11. Vision planning for
commercial autonomous
shipping
• Application of the systematic InnoLeap
method
• Drastically accelerate Rolls Royce’s
innovation process to find new ship
command bridge concepts

12. "We're living in an ever-changing world where unmanned and
remote-controlled transportation systems will become
a common feature of human life. They offer unprecedented
flexibility and operational efficiency. Our research aims to
understand the human factors involved in monitoring and
operating ships remotely. It identifies ways crews ashore can
use tools to get a realistic feel for what is happening at sea.“
Iiro Lindborg, General Manager
Remote & Autonomous Operations, Ship Intelligence
