- 2004
-
Ingår i: The 21st International Manufacturing Conference. ; , s. 156-163
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The paper describes manufacturing simulation with a focus on discrete event simulation and computer aided robotics. Some generic good practices, problems, and pitfalls in the use of simulation are described. Some advanced applications of manufacturing simulation are described and elucidated on the hand of a system for simulation-based service & maintenance. Simulation-based decision support and information fusion are closely related, and plans for novel synergistic research in these area are presented

MMI: Engineering Studies with a Truly European Dimension
- 2006
-
Ingår i: Innovative teaching and learning in engineering education. ; , s. 99-106
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The paper describes a new engineering Master's program called MMII (manufacturing management and industrial informatics) that is co-located at universities in Sweden, Spain and the United Kingdom. One reason for developing the program was that the changing manufacturing landscape due to globalisation, increasing complexity of manufacturing systems itself and an increased need to integrate manufacturing systems with corporate information systems forces educators to find solutions that provide industry with engineers who have the right skills. Apart from "hard" skills related to the above-mentioned issues, industry increasingly also requires engineers to have well-developed "soft" skills such as an ability to work in an international environment and willingness to work abroad. A program given at only one location would not provide a truly European dimension and besides, it would draw heavily upon the teaching resources; hence the decision to seek international partners with complementing competences and resources; these were found at universities in Skövde, Valencia and Loughborough. In Loughborough, students read capita selecta from CAE (computer aided engineering) during one semester. In Valencia, they spend a project-based semester on international industrial management. In Skövde, they read virtual manufacturing during one semester and carry out their degree project during the final semester.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper describes manufacturing (resource) simulation with a focus on discrete event simulation and computer-aided robotics. Some generic good practices, problems and pitfalls in the use of simulation are described. Various advanced applications of manufacturing simulation are described and elucidated on the hand of a system for simulation-based service and maintenance. The paper also describes briefly how simulation-based decision support and information fusion are related, and how this can result in synergistic research across these areas

An Innovative Collaboration Between Industry, University and Nonprofit Agency, for a Competitive Industry : A Swedish case
- 2011

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In a knowledge based economy, manufacturing industry has to continuously improve their operations, processes and develop their employees in order to remain competitive in the market.In this context, the collaboration between industry and universities becomes of vital importance. Universities and industry have traditionally maintained fairly informal or lose ways of cooperation when it comes to education. This article presents a fruitful cooperation which has been established between the University of Skövde, the Industrial Development Center in the region, IDC West Sweden AB, and the manufacturing industry.The paper describes the development, lessons learned and the outcome of more than 3 years’ experience of close collaboration between the different stakeholders. It presents a methodology, used by the consortium to help manufacturing industries to improve their competiveness using a well defined process including: a company analysis, applied education and long-term coaching. A special focus is put on a long-term commitment by all partners. This alliance has performed more than 140 company analysis, conducted applied education for more than 2500 employees from more than 120 companies and performed coaching of more than 80 companies on site. The trend is that these figures will increase over time.The established collaboration has been strengthened over this period of time by a number of shared research projects. One of these projects involves an evaluation of the impact that this presented consortium has had on the region´s industry. Lean Learning Academies is another project that has been funded by the European Union within the Lifelong Learning Program, with the aim to increase the competitiveness of European companies and enhance the employability of students.

Lean, simulation and optimization : A maturity model
- 2017
-
Ingår i: IEEE International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management. - : IEEE. - 9781538609484 - 9781538609477 - 9781538609491 ; , s. 1310-1315

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article presents a maturity model that can be applied to support organizations in identifying their current state and guiding their further development with regard to lean, simulation and optimization. The paper identifies and describes different maturity levels and offers guidelines that explain how organizations can grow from lower to higher levels of maturity. In addition, it attempts to provide the starting point for organizations that have applied lean or are willing to implement it and which may also be considering taking decisions in a more efficient way via simulation and optimization.

Bridging a Methodological Gap in Using System Dynamics in Manufacturing
- 2009

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Development of manufacturing systems is dependent on human decision making. One important factor in the decision making process is the organisational ability to transform available information into useful knowledge. The ability is generally limited by the organisation's level of competence and use of methods. However, real systems are not simple and straightforward but dynamically complex and difficult to interpret in order to perform successful change. One tool for diagnosing and solving complex business problems is system dynamics. It is interesting for its capability to acknowledge dynamic complexity.This paper presents a framework of guidelines that facilitates implementing a system dynamics project for manufacturing systems development. It is the result of industrial case studies, supporting verification of the framework contents. This is presented in order to improve using system dynamics as a decision support in manufacturing. And it may bridge a gap between academic theory and industrial practice.
