Niagara Bottling LLC aims to design an improved half-litre plastic water bottle that (1) considers typical loading scenarios, (2) reduces bottle cost and (3) incorporates customer feedback. Deliverables include design procedures for generating ideas and bottle prototypes based on the team鈥檚 design ideas. The designs were modeled and then mechanically evaluated to recommend the best design to Niagara.
