  2. 11. Facilitating Automation Development in Internal Logistics Systems

    Author : Anna Granlund; Mats Jackson; Marcus Bengtsson; Magnus Wiktorsson; Mats Johansson; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : automation development; internal logistics; automation; systems development; Innovation and Design; innovation och design;

    Abstract : The internal logistics system includes all activities connected with managing the flow of materials within the physical limits of a facility. This system is an important part of operations in need of increased focus and continuous improvements. READ MORE

  4. 12. Levels of Automation in Production Systems

    Author : Jörgen Frohm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; automation; task allocation; measurement; levels of automation; production;

    Abstract : Although automation is often seen as an efficient way to achieve cost-efficient production and to relieve humans from heavy or dangerous tasks, it also has its drawbacks. Earlier research has shown that increasing levels of automation in unforeseen production situations can be related to production disturbances. READ MORE

  5. 13. When Driving Automation Fails. Drivers' Experiences and Interactions

    Author : Niklas Strand; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HMI; simulator studies; driver behavior; Automated driving; automation failures;

    Abstract : Drivers’ interactions with automation based on experiences from real driving, and results from driving simulators were under investigation in this thesis. The thesis had a mixed methods research approach and was exploratory. Special attention has been given to driver behavior on exposure to unexpected automation failures. READ MORE

  6. 14. Structures for supporting BIM-based automation in the design process

    Author : Jani Mukkavaara; Thomas Olofsson; Gustav Jansson; Marcus Sandberg; Fredrik Elgh; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BIM; Automation; Distributed System; Information; Structures; Byggproduktion och teknik; Construction Management and Building Technology;

    Abstract : During recent decades the advent of IT in the construction industry has prompted a gradual shift from manual paper-based processes to computer-aided design and production. In this shift there has been an increasing interest in the application of building information modelling (BIM) for the overall management of information throughout the lifecycle of a building.

  7. 15. Automation of Computational Mathematical Modeling

    Author : Anders Logg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computational mathematical modeling; automation; adaptivity; multi-adaptivity; individual time steps; dual problem; a priori; a posteriori; model reduction; individual time steps;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the Automation of Computational Mathematical Modeling (CMM), involving the key steps of automation of (i) discretization, (ii) discrete solution, (iii) error control, (iv) modeling, and (v) optimization. The automation of (i)--(ii) is realized through multi-adaptive Galerkin methods on general discretizations of space-time with time steps variable in space. READ MORE
