  2. 1. Exploring the omnichannel transformation of material-handling configurations and logistics capabilities in grocery retail

    Author : Ebba Eriksson; Teknisk logistik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Omnichannel; Grocery retail; Material handling; OFC; Logistics network; Dynamic capabilities; Sorting; Transvection theory; automated order picking systems; Contingency theory; Omnichannel; Grocery retail; material handling; OFC; Logistics network; Dynamic capabilities; Sorting; Transvection theory; Automated order picking systems; Contingency theory;

    Abstract : Grocery retail is going through a rapid shift. Consumers now expect to be able to shop online or in stores, get orders delivered when and where they want, and preferably as quickly as possible. READ MORE

  4. 2. Simultaneous Topology and Material Optimization of Composite Structures under Uncertainty

    Author : Dženan Hozić; Carl-Johan Thore; François-Xavier Irisarri; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structural Optimization; Composite Structures; Topology Optimization; Multi-material Optimization; Material Uncertainty; Robust Optimization; Composite Structure Optimization; Design Optimization; Composite Material;

    Abstract : Composite materials are known to have superior stiffness and strength properties per unit weight compared to metallic materials. These properties and the ability to tailor the mechanical properties of composites is the main motivation for choosing composite materials for structural components. READ MORE

  5. 3. Material perception and action : The role of material properties in object handling

    Author : Kristin Ingvarsdottir; Kognitiv modellering; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; material perception; visual properties; motor planning; cognition; humanoid robot;

    Abstract : This dissertation is about visual perception of material properties and their role in preparation for object handling. Usually before an object is touched or picked-up we estimate its size and shape based on visual features to plan the grip size of our hand. READ MORE

  6. 4. Sustainable Design and Control of Automated Material Handling Systems

    Author : Maziar Mashaei; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mixed integer leaner model.; CPN tool; Universal design framework; Sustainable production philosophy; Conceptual and detailed design phases; Automated material handling system; Pallet system; Synthesis and evaluation methods;

    Abstract : An automated material handling system is a collection of electro mechanical components, electronics, and computer-based devices that act together to maintain flow of parts and materials in a modern production environment. Material flow is a significant factor in the design of manufacturing plants. READ MORE

  7. 5. Particle Methods for Modelling Granular Material Flow

    Author : Simon Larsson; Pär Jonsén; Hans-Åke Häggblad; Gustaf Gustafsson; Eugenio Oñate; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
