  1. 1. Collision-free path coordination and cycle time optimization of industrial robot cells

    Author : Domenico Spensieri; Stiftelsen Fraunhofer-Chalmers Centrum för Industrimatematik (FCC); []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cycle time optimization; multi-robot collision avoidance; production planning; multi-robot routing and coordination;

    Abstract : In industry, short ramp-up times, product quality, product customization and high production rates are among the main drivers of technological progress. This is especially true for automotive manufacturers whose market is very competitive, constantly pushing for new solutions. READ MORE

  2. 2. MIND : Optimization method for industrial energy systems

    Author : Katarina Nilsson; Mats Söderström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; OPTIMIZATION; LIFE CYCLE COST; INDUSTRIAL; NONLINEAR; ENERGY;

    Abstract : The MIND optimization method is a tool for life cycle cost minimization of a flexible range of industrial energy systems. It can be used in analyses of energy systems in response to changes within the system, changes of the boundary conditions and synthesis of energy systems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Geometry Optimization of an Interior Permanent Magnet Machine for Electric Vehicles - Life Cycle Cost Minimization for City, Rural and Highway Driving

    Author : Elisabet Jansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Optimization; Finite Element Analysis; Interior Permanent Magnet Machine; Drive Cycles; Life Cycle Cost; Battery Electric Vehicle; Electric Machine Design;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the benefits of customizing an Interior Permanent magnet Machine (IPM) for a specific combination of city, rural and highway driving. Focus lies on the potential to reduce the Life Cycle Cost (LCC) of the IPM and power electronic converter, for an example Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), by custom-making the IPM. READ MORE

  4. 4. Slab Frame Bridges : Structural Optimization Considering Investment Cost and Environmental Impacts

    Author : Majid Solat Yavari; Costin Pacoste-Calmanovici; Raid Karoumi; Mario Plos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Slab frame bridge; Structural design; Cost optimization; Optimization of environmental impact; Life cycle assessment; Genetic algorithm; Pattern search method; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : This research encompasses the automated design and structural optimization of reinforced concrete slab frame bridges, considering investment costs and environmental impacts. The most important feature of this work is that it focusses on realistic and complete models of slab frame bridges rather than on optimization of only individual members or sections of a bridge.

  5. 5. Methods and Models for Cutting Data Optimization

    Author : Sören Hägglund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Tool Life; Cutting Forces; Tool Replacement Coordination; Process Cost; Tooling Cost; Cutting Data Optimization; Surface Finish; Cycle Time Balancing;

    Abstract : Traditional optimization of cutting processes refers to minimizing cost or minimizing time (minimumcost or maximum production rate). These criteria apply to the cutting speed via well-known equationsfor economic tool life and tool life for maximum production rate. Quite often speed is focused firstwhen after some suitable feed value is chosen. READ MORE
