MANUFACTURING DATA ANALYTICS USING A VIRTUAL FACTORY REPRESENTATION

July 6, 2017

Author(s)

Sanjay Jain, Guodong Shao, Seungjun Shin

Manufacturing organizations are able to accumulate large amounts of plant floor production and environmental data due to advances in data collection, communications technology, and use of standards. Data analytics can help understand and gain insights from

PROCEDURE FOR DEVELOPING KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS FOR SUSTAINABLE MANUFACTURING

June 8, 2017

Author(s)

Shaw C. Feng, Deogratias Kibira, Michael P. Brundage, Katherine C. Morris

The need for an open, inclusive, and neutral procedure for developing key performance indicators (KPIs) has been increasing as manufacturers seek to determine what to measure in order to improve environmental sustainability of their products and

Integrating Data Mining and Simulation Optimization for Decision Making in Manufacturing

May 24, 2017

Author(s)

Deogratias Kibira, Guodong Shao

Manufacturers are facing an ever-increasing demand for customized products on the one hand and environmentally friendly products on the other. This situation affects both the product and the process life cycles. To guide decision-making across these life

Energy efficiency of milling machining: Component modeling and online optimization of cutting parameters

May 5, 2017

Author(s)

Seungjun Shin, Jungyub Woo, Sudarsan Rachuri, Seungjun Shin

Energy consumption is a major sustainability focus in the metal cutting industry. As a result, process planning is increasingly concerned with reducing energy consumption in machine tools. The relevant literature has been categorized into two research

Effects of powder recycling on stainless steel powder and built material properties in metal powder bed fusion processes

February 27, 2017

Author(s)

Gregor Jacob, Christopher U. Brown, M A. Donmez, Stephanie S. Watson

A series of 11 identical laser based powder bed fusion (PBF) builds were completed with varying amounts of virgin and recycled nitrogen gas atomized S17-4 PH stainless steel powder following a specific powder recycling strategy that simulates industrial

An Open Web-Based Repository for Capturing Manufacturing Process Information

December 1, 2016

Author(s)

William Z. Bernstein, Mahesh Mani, Katherine C. Morris, Kevin W. Lyons, Bjoern J. Johansson

With recent progress in developing more effective models for representing manufacturing processes, this paper presents an approach towards an open web-based repository for storing manufacturing process information. The repository is envisioned to include

STANDARD REPRESENTATIONS FOR CHARACTERIZATION OF INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES

October 1, 2016

Author(s)

Mahesh Mani, Jon Larborn, Bjoern J. Johansson, Kevin W. Lyons, Katherine C. Morris

This paper describes ASTMs new guide for characterizing the environmental aspects of manufacturing processes (ASTM WK35705). The guide defines a generic representation to support structured information. Representations of multiple unit manufacturing

Terminology to Support Manufacturing Process Characterization and Sustainability Assessment

August 27, 2016

Author(s)

Ian Garretson, Mahesh Mani, Kevin W. Lyons, Swee K. Leong, Karl Haapala

Common terminology is essential for accurate communication between researchers, scientists, engineers, and other decision makers. For manufacturing process characterization, it is imperative for the related terminology to be harmonized to enable efficient

USING INDUSTRY FOCUS GROUPS AND LITERATURE REVIEW TO IDENTIFY CHALLENGES IN SUSTAINABLE ASSESSMENT THEORY AND PRACTICE

August 23, 2016

Author(s)

Mahesh Mani, Karl Haapala, Matteo Smullin, KC Morris

The bottom up demand from consumers for more sustainable products, and the top down need to comply with government regulations motivates manufacturers to adopt tools and methods to evaluate their operations for opportunities to reduce environmental impact

Morphology-insensitive Performance Facilitates Transition from Spin-Coating to Roll-to-Roll Coating For High-Performance, Solution-Processed Solar Cells

August 2, 2016

Author(s)

Lee J. Richter, Jonathan Downing, Sebastian Engmann, Hyun W. Ro, Andrew A. Herzing, Dean M. DeLongchamp, Subhrangsu Mukherjee, Harald Ade, Maged Addelsamie, Aram Amassian, Yuhang Liu, He Yan

Solution processing via roll-to-roll (R2R) coating promises a low cost, low thermal-budget, sustainable revolution for the production of solar cells. Yet virtually all high performance solution processed research cells have been demonstrated by spin

Understanding sustainability data through unit manufacturing process representations: a case study on stone production

May 24, 2016

Author(s)

Bjoern J. Johansson, Mahesh Mani, William Z. Bernstein, Kevin W. Lyons, KC Morris, Laurie Rebouillat, Ilaria Barletta

Efficiency of natural stone production processes in quarries directly affects the economic output and environmental performances, such as production lead times and energy consumptions. Knowledge on stone production processes is crucial in making

Performance evaluation of a manufacturing process under uncertainty using Bayesian networks

February 29, 2016

Author(s)

Sudarsan Rachuri, Sankaran Mahadevan, Saideep Nannapaneni

This paper proposes a systematic framework using Bayesian networks to integrate all uncertainty sources and available information for uncertainty quantification (UQ) in the prediction of performance of a manufacturing process. Energy consumption, one of

Real-Time Energy Prediction for a Milling Machine Tool Using Sparse Gaussian Process Regression

December 28, 2015

Author(s)

Sudarsan Rachuri, Jinkyoo Park, Kincho Law, Raunak Binge, Mason Chen, David Dornfeld
