the adverse consequences of major accident events have led to development of accident analysis techniques to investigate thoroughly the accidents. however, each technique has its own advantages and shortcomings,which make it very difficult to find a single technique being capable of analyzing all types of accidents. therefore, the comparison of accident analysis techniques would help finding ou...

This paper discusses the simulation study carried out for proposing one-piece lean line layout with features of Lean Manufacturing. The lean initiatives that can be addressed are, introducing Kanban replenishment sys-tem, better work-in-process, changing the layout, visual management techniques, standardized work for the re-duction of cycle time, number of workers, number of setups. To improve ...

Antibody based products are not widely available to address multiple global health challenges due to high costs, limited manufacturing capacity, and long manufacturing lead times. Nicotiana-based manufacturing of antibody products may now begin to address these challenges as a result of revolutionary advances in transient expression and altered glycosylation pathways. This review provides examp...

Design and manufacturing technology of high pressure multistage pumps which are commonly utilized in oil and gas industries, used to be imported from foreign companies. Due to international sanctions against I. R. Iran, it started to be designed and launched domestically. Nowadays all production lines including design, manufacturing and testing of these pumps have been performed by Iranian expe...

Global competition and rapidly changing customer requirements are demanding increasing changes in manufacturing environments. Enterprises are required to constantly redesign their products and continuously reconfigure their manufacturing systems. Traditional approaches to manufacturing systems do not fully satisfy this new situation. Many authors have proposed that artificial intelligence will ...

The paper argues that Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMS) and Environmentally Benign Manufacturing (EBM) could play a very important role in the context of Green Revolution. The paper analyzes RMS as a machining system which can be created by incorporating basic process modules both hardware and software that can be interchangeable, rearranged or replaced quickly and reliably. The author...
