Applications such as layered manufacturing, or in general, solid free-form fabrication, pose a major challenge on online process control. For these parts to be functional, it is i...
In high-tech industries, most manufacturing processes are complexly intertwined, in that manufacturers or engineers can hardly control a whole set of processes. They are only capa...
Simulation models are useful to predict and understand the impact of changes to a manufacturing system. Typical factory simulation models include the parts being manufactured in t...
