Propose a research project in the area of technology, media and politics and critically evaluate different methodological approaches through which this project could be undertaken, concluding with a concrete proposal of the most appropriate way to undertake the proposed research project.
Your proposal should present a short review of literature related to the proposed research question and justify the focus of the project (<33%) but should mainly focus on evaluating the strengths and weaknesses, ethical and practical issues and contribution to existing scholarship of the different methodological approaches.
You have been recruited to help revive the fortunes of a family-owned product development company specializing in design of military body armours. This company is on the verge of collapse due to competition from far east, where such product development services have been computerized and computer simulations have helped reduce trial and error associated with the design processes. Currently, the board of the company comprise of the father (65 years old) with little scientific education; the mother (who deals with company accounts) and two sons, in their early 40s, who have grown with the business and have acquired an engineering education. The sons have recommended computational modelling as a way to save the organization. The yearly turn-over of the company is £250,000 before tax. You are required to prepare a 1500-word technical report to the board demonstrating in your view how computational modelling can help save the company. Identify the requirements of a computational solution for the organization and how they can ensure that their current practices is validated against your proposed computational model.
Hint: You are to address the whole FEM pillars, identifying what is required at each stage for the company to adopt and implement the computational approach to their daily working practices.
