Current products in the market are customer oriented. Customers demand for low priced products in minimum possible time of production. To achieve competitiveness and to stay ahead in the business, manufacturers adopt lean manufacturing strategies. Lean principles are focused on elimination of wastes, streamlining the processes there by reducing cost and product delivery time. Lean concepts are ...

the objective of this study was to develop a numerical model for the prediction of temperature distribution, effective plastic strain distribution, and especially material flow in friction stir welding of copper plates. the deform-3d software was used by incorporating a lagrangian incremental formulation. threedimensional results of the material flow pattern which were extracted using the point...

Purpose: Lean manufacturing concept is most important to be used in an automobile industry system for reduction in the waste, which decreases the yield. The techniques used for implementing Lean concept are helpful to find the waste throughout the industry and suggest the techniques to get rid of from that waste. By these techniques without using much cost and labor we can reduce waste producin...

We present a review on the state-of-the-art of the adoption of a specific Agile Methodology (AM), the Lean-Kanban, in different software development contexts. Such approach requires to break down the software development process into smaller steps, which are implemented with the aid of a Kanban board. We study 14 different Kanban boards and we also examined how features are represented in the b...
