  • Hybrid flowshop scheduling with dual resources in a supply chain

    Creator:
    Mehravaran, Yasaman
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses a hybrid-flow shop scheduling problem with dual resource constraints in a supply chain. Most of the traditional scheduling problems deal with machine as the only resource. However, other resources such as labor is not only required for processing jobs but are often constrained. Considering the second resource...

  • A Unit Manufacturing Process Characterization Methodology and Supporting Terminology for Sustainable Manufacturing Assessment

    Creator:
    Garretson, Ian C.
    Abstract:
    Manufacturing industry drives economic activity and growth around the world, but manufacturing activities consume large amounts of material, energy, and labor resources. Therefore, the impacts of manufacturing need to be accounted for and reduced. Direct benefits of manufacturing are products and income, which, in turn, influence the lives of people...

  • 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...
