A framework for ICT-enabled real-time production planning and control
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This paper aims to develop a conceptual framework for real-time production planning and control (PPC). Firstly, we discuss the most prominently applied contemporary information and communication technologies for PPC. ... -
A framework for production rescheduling in sociotechnical manufacturing environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)No plan survives contact with reality. Despite the rich research base regarding handling uncertainty in production planning and control systems, there is an intellectual gap between theory and practice with regard to ... -
A Framing Link Based Tabu Search Algorithm for Large-Scale Multidepot Vehicle Routing Problems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)A framing link (FL) based tabu search algorithm is proposed in this paper for a large-scale multidepot vehicle routing problem (LSMDVRP). Framing links are generated during continuous great optimization of current solutions ... -
A Guideline for the Dynamic Barrier Management Framework Based on System Thinking
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Accident investigations in process industry indicate that inadequate barrier management has been one of the main causes of many major accidents. Barriers degrade over time and at different rates, and these degradations may ... -
A Holistic approach to corporate sustainability assessment: Incorporating sustainable development goals into sustainable manufacturing performance evaluation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Corporate Sustainability Assessment (CSA) in manufacturing is a framing of tools that guide the organization toward sustainable practices and indicate how the same organization contributes to a global Sustainable Development ... -
A metallurgical and thermal analysis of Inconel 625 electron-beam welded joints
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Inconel 625 is a nickel-based superalloy that finds application in many industrial sectors thanks to its high strength, excellent fabricability, and outstanding corrosion resistance. It is characterized by a good weldability ... -
A new method for assessing anisotropy in fused deposition modeled parts using computed tomography data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Voids in fused deposition modeled (FDM) parts are assumed to be a key driver for their anisotropic behavior. However, these assumptions are based on investigations of voids using only 2D data (microscopy images). This paper ... -
A New Method of Low Amplitude Signal Detection and Its Application in Acoustic Emission
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)A novel methodology is proposed to enhance the reliability of detection of low amplitude transients in a noisy time series. Such time series often arise in a wide range of practical situations where different sensors are ... -
A New Set of Principles for Pursuing the Lean Ideal in Engineer-to-order Manufacturers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)For many years, lean production has been successfully applied in large companies producing high volumes of standardized products. However, companies which operate in dissimilar environments have yet to expose a suitable ... -
A novel algorithm for crack path identification based on infrared images
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The present work aims at developing a new approach towards the analysis of the crack path through the access to the information from the infrared (IR) video imaging of the steady fatigue crack growth. We first test some ... -
A novel approach for assessing the fatigue behavior of PEEK in a physiologically relevant environment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)In recent years, the need of surgical procedures has continuously increased and, therefore, researchers and clinicians are broadly focusing on the development of new biocompatible materials. Among them, polyetheretherketone ... -
A Practical Approach for Data Gathering for Polymer Cure Simulations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Producing precision parts requires good control of the production parameters. When casting thermoset polymers an understanding of the curing process, with its heat release and associated temperature changes, is important. ... -
A project management issue of new technology developments: A case study on lack of human factors' attention in human-robot interaction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The complexity of today’s sociotechnical systems has prompted researchers and practitioners to advocate new holistic approaches to safety. However, many engineering standards, methods and processes for addressing technical, ... -
A ranking method for prioritising retail store food waste based on monetary and environmental impacts
(Journal article, 2018)Food waste has become a major concern globally, leading to high economic, environmental and social awareness, as well as inclusion in international policy documents. In the developed world, the retail stage has the greatest ... -
A responsibility-centered approach to defining levels of automation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Several authors and organisations have over the last 40 years suggested various ways to describe different levels of automation. In this paper we give an introduction to some of the most relevant models and present some ... -
A review of cohesive zone modelling as an approach for numerically assessing hydrogen embrittlement of steel structures.
(Journal article, 2017)Simulation of hydrogen embrittlement requires a coupled approach; on one side, the models describing hydrogen transport must account for local mechanical fields, while on the other side, the effect of hydrogen on the ... -
A Running Reference Analysis Method to Greatly Improve Optical Backscatter Reflectometry Strain Data from the Inside of Hardening and Shrinking Materials
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Due to the increasing ease of use and the superiority of the results, distributed strain measurements, utilizing Optical Backscatter Reflectometry (OBR), have become more important and widespread over the last few years. ... -
A Simplistic Preliminary Assessment of Ginstling-Brounstein Model for Solid Spherical Particles in the Context of a Diffusion-Controlled Synthesis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Wet precipitation (WP) is a diffusion-controlled synthesis method, which is often used for synthesizing such compounds as hydroxyapatite (HAp). Since the process is limited by diffusion, the choice of a diffusion model ... -
