Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Failures in a Materials Handling System with Extended Petri Nets
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper models, analyzes, accommodates and simulates potential failures which may occur in a materials handling system with Extended Petri nets (EPNs). EPNs are shown to be able to cope with various important failure situations that occur in a manufacturing system through the definition of six different types of places. Detailed EPN based subnets are provided to study and accommodate occurred failures. The approach described proposes an efficient methodology to generate an overall EPN design to model and analyze potential system failures at different levels of detail. It has been observed that the study of boundedness properties rather than the safeness properties of a manufacturing system with resource constraints leads to a better defined EPN system model. The subnet structural properties and the overall system properties are preserved. The Stochastic Petri Net Package (SPNP) is used for simulation studies.

Modeling of Continuous Systems Using Modified Petri Nets
Due to the changes which may occur in their parameters, systems are usually demonstrated by some subsystems for different conditions. This paper employs Modified Petri Nets (MPN) to model theses subsystems and makes it simple to analyze them. In this method, first, the continuous transfer function is converted to a discrete transfer function and then, by MPN, system is modeled and analyzed. All...
متن کاملUsing Interval Petri Nets and Timed Automata for Diagnosis of Discrete Event Systems (DES)
A discrete event system (DES) is a dynamic system that evolves in accordance with the abrupt occurrence, at possibly unknown irregular intervals, of physical events. Because of the special nature of these systems, different tools are currently used for their analysis, design and modeling. The main focus of this paper is the presentation of a new modeling approach of Discrete Event Systems. The ...

The existing modeling methods using Petri Nets, have been successfully applied to model and analyze dynamic systems. However, these methods are not capable of modeling all dynamic systems such as systems with the current sample time signals, systems including various subsystems and multi-mode systems. This paper proposes Hybrid Time Delay Petri Nets (HTDPN) to solve the problem. In ...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Approach to Sequential Failure Analysis Using Petri nets
In highly competitive industrial market, the concept of failure analysis is an unavoidable fact in complex industrial systems. Reliability of such systems not only depends on the reliability of each element of these systems, but also depends on occurrence of sequence of failures. In this paper, a novel approach to sequential failure analysis is proposed which is based upon fuzzy logic and the c...
