  2. 1. Reconfiguration Methodology to improve the agility and sustainability of Plug and Produce Systems

    Author : Pedro Neves; Mauro Onori; Åsa Fasth Berglund; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Production Engineering; Industriell produktion;

    Abstract : The emergence of globalisation, market turbulence and sustainability requirements is challenging production companies to devise new strategies to offer large product diversity, keep low inventories, and timely produce small batches of customised and personalised products. Agile shop-floors that can be promptly deployed and re-configured with minimum integration and programming efforts are perceived as a promising strategy to tackle this problem. READ MORE

  4. 2. Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges : Data-based damage detection method using Machine Learning

    Author : Ana C. Neves; Raid Karoumi; Elsa Caetano; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Health Monitoring; damage detection; Machine Learning; data-based methods; Artificial Neural Networks; Value of Information; Structural Engineering and Bridges; Bro- och stålbyggnad;

    Abstract : Civil engineering structures built according to modern codes are designed for a service life of normally more than 100 years. At the same time, there is a growing pressure to keep existing aged structures in service despite the fact that they have reached the original designed lifetime, with bridges being a good example of this.

  5. 3. Structural Health Monitoring of Bridges : Model-free damage detection method using Machine Learning

    Author : Cláudia Neves; Raid Karoumi; John Leander; Ignacio Gonzalez; Eleni Chatzi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Health Monitoring; Machine Learning; Damage detection; Model-free based method; Artificial Neural Networks; Gaussian Process; Cost optimization; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : This is probably the most appropriate time for the development of robust and reliable structural damage detection systems as aging civil engineering structures, such as bridges, are being used past their life expectancy and beyond their original design loads. Often, when a significant damage to the structure is discovered, the deterioration has already progressed far and required repair is substantial. READ MORE

  6. 4. System Evaluation and Learning in Evolvable Production Systems : Preliminary considerations and research directions

    Author : Pedro Neves; Mauro Onori; Luis Ribeiro; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Learning; Evolvable Production Systems; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

    Abstract : Dynamicity and unpredictability related to markets is strongly hardening companies’ mission to follow them and satisfy customer needs mainly due to the lack of adequate engineering mechanisms. These effects are felt more intensively in markets where low volumes and high customisation are needed since this requires constant changes in systems that can range from simple setups to total line re-configuration and re-programing.

  7. 5. Energy Storage Materials: Insights From ab Initio Theory : Diffusion, Structure, Thermodynamics and Design

    Author : Rafael Barros Neves de Araújo; Rajeev Ahuja; Graeme Henkelman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Density Functional Theory; Defects Diffusion; Thermodynamics and Batteries.;

    Abstract : The development of science and technology have provided a lifestyle completely dependent on energy consumption. Devices such as computers and mobile phones are good examples of how our daily life depends on electric energy. READ MORE
