A Techno-Economic Assessment Methodology for Advanced Additive and Joining Processes

Creator:: Malshe, Harsha A.
Abstract:: Integrated manufacturing systems, a combination of subtractive, additive, and joining processes, provide a competitive advantage for manufacturing organizations. As product designs become more complex and capital more scarce, an ideal combination of advanced manufacturing technologies (e.g., powder bed fusion or friction welding), in tandem with traditional subtractive manufacturing systems, can...

An economic and environmental assessment model for microchannel device manufacturing

Creator:: Gao, Qi
Abstract:: A key application of microchannel process technology (MPT) is its implementation in heat exchanger devices, since a larger surface contact area can be realized than in conventional approaches, thus achieving high heat transfer efficiency. To justify high volume production of configurations validated as prototypes, and to select from among the...

Assessing steel bevel gear design alternatives for sustainability performance through unit manufacturing process modeling

Creator:: Eastwood, Michael D.
Abstract:: As the growth in demand for sustainable manufacturing continues, companies must begin to make conscious design decisions with regard to the sustainability of their products. This means balancing economics of production with environmental and social performance. Thus, design and manufacturing engineers must consider economic, environmental, and social aspects simultaneously when...
