  1. 11. Discrete Event Simulation of the Paint shop at VBG Truck Equipment : A method for Work shift Optimization and Balanced Production flow

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Athira Ashok Kumar Prasanna Kumari; [2022]
    Keywords : Discrete Event Simulation; Work shifts; Bottlenecks; Production flow; simulation mode;

    Abstract : The background for this thesis work emanates from a desire to drive the production of the VBG Truck Equipment factory in Vänersborg a step further to catch up with the Industry 4.0 standards. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a widely adopted tool within industries to model real-world systems to improve their processes. READ MORE

  3. 12. Production improvement using Discrete Event Simulation : case study of Volvo Penta engine production line

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Erik Birgersson; Daniel Eriksson; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The global market forces manufacturers to minimise costs, meet production schedules, and improve productivity to stay competitive. The produced products require higher customisations, which are affecting the complexity of the production system. Companies seeking methods and tools to improve their production system. READ MORE

  4. 13. Discrete-event dynamic system simulation of a heterogeneous manufacturing process

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

    Author : Markus Styrman; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A heterogeneous, discrete manufacturing line is being transformed towards a continuous process. Higher demands for efficiency and decreased flexibility of the new process requires more knowledge of the process. READ MORE

  5. 14. Optimising the Planning- and Scheduling in a Complex Production : Discrete-Event Simulation in a pharmaceutical context

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Johan Börjesson; Paulina Boutros; [2022]
    Keywords : DES; Optimisation; Pharmaceutical industry; Product mix; Production planning- and scheduling; Resource allocation; Simulation.; DES; Läkemedelsindustrin; Optimering; Produkt mix; Produktionsplanering- och schemaläggning; Resursfördelning; Simulering;

    Abstract : The aim of this study is to investigate the optimisation of production planning- and scheduling in a pharmaceutical facility using DES.Research questions: “How can DES be used to achieve flexibility and efficiency in a pharmaceutical facility?” and “How can DES be used to increase efficiency of the resource allocation in a pharmaceutical facility?”Methodology: This study has been compared to a deductive- and a quantitative research approach where a process simulation has been modelled.

  6. 15. A framework for enabling operators to use simulation for continuous improvement

    University essay from Jönköping University/JTH, Produktionsutveckling

    Author : Christian Junior Alcayaga; Jakob Hoffsten; [2022]
    Keywords : Discrete event simulation; Simulation; Continuous improvement; Operators;

    Abstract : In a time where digitalization is becoming more and more necessary to work with, tools such as simulation is becoming more of a standard to be able to make decisions made on facts. Within previous research there is a gap in the research, as the factors enabling operators to use simulation is an unexplored topic. READ MORE
