Abstract Microfluidic processes are of great interest for the production nanoparticles with reproducible properties. However, in real systems, it is difficult to completely exclude incidental larger particles, which can contaminate product or clog downstream process modules. A class microfluidic filters was devised eliminating particulate contamination multistage continuous‐flow processes. To a...

In this article we review the Adomian decomposition method (ADM) and its modifications including different modified and parametrized recursion schemes, the multistage ADM for initial value problems as well as the multistage ADM for boundary value problems, new developments of the method and its applications to linear or nonlinear and ordinary or partial differential equations, including fractio...

1 JITKA DUPAČOVÁ The paper gives a brief introduction into the problems of multistage stochastic program­ ming with emphasis on the modeling issues (Section 2) and on the contemporary numerical advances (Section 3). Extensive classified bibliography is contained in the last Section.

Recently, the modelling of variation propagation in multistage machining processes has drawn significant attention. In most of the recently developed variation propagation models, the dimensional variation is determined through kinematic analysis of the relationships among error sources and dimensional quality of the product, represented by homogeneous transformations of the actual location of ...

Setup planning is a set of activities used to arrange manufacturing features into an appropriate sequence for processing. It has significant impacts on the product quality, which is often measured in terms of dimensional variation in the Key Product Characteristics (KPC). Current approaches to setup planning are experience-based and tend to be conservative by selecting unnecessarily precise mac...

This paper presents a methodology for diagnostics of fixture failures in multistage manufacturing processes (MMP). The diagnostic methodology is based on the state-space model of the MMP process, which includes part fixturing layout geometry and sensor location. The state space model of the MMP characterizes the propagation of fixture fault variation along the production stream, and is used to ...
