Capturing composites manufacturing waste flows through process mapping

Capturing reasoning process through user interaction

In recent years, visual analytics has taken an important role in solving many types of complex analytical problems that require deep and specific domain knowledge from users. While the analysis products generated by these expert users are of great importance, how these users apply their domain expertise in using the visualization to validate their hypotheses and arrive at conclusions is often j...

Electrochemical Process for the Manufacturing of Titanium Alloy Matrix Composites

Titanium matrix composites (TMC) represent a perspective materials category with potential applications in many important fields like aerospace constructions, automotive industry, ship structures, sports and households objects, and others. A titanium matrix composite is constituted of a titanium or titanium alloy – matrix and reinforcements materials, which are usually ceramics in form of parti...

simulation of pultrusion manufacturing process of glass/polyester composites

present research involves the complete simulation of pultrusion manufacturing process of glass/polyester composites. for that purpose, the curing process is divided to two liquid and gel-solid phases. the physical characteristics of the resin consist of specific heat, viscosity and coefficient of heat transfer changes with variations of temperature and increasing the degree of curing process (α...

Extending value stream mapping through waste definition beyond customer perspective

Value stream mapping (VSM) is one of the several Lean practices, which has recently attracted interest in the software engineering community. In other contexts (such as military, health and production), VSM has achieved considerable improvements in processes and products. The goal is to capitalize on these benefits in the software intensive product development context. The primary contribution ...
