  1. 26. Challenges for the Construction Equipment Industry to Shift Towards Zero-Emission Machines

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Sam Hansen; Rasmus Sjöström; [2023]
    Keywords : Relations in industrial networks; Construction equipment machines; relationer i industriella nätverk; arbetsmaskiner;

    Abstract : Sweden has set a goal to become the first fossil-free country and by 2045, they aim to achieve net zero emissions of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Construction equipment accounts for approximately 3.3 million tons of CO2 equivalents in Sweden. READ MORE

  2. 27. Using discrete-event simulation to enable implementation of picking and palletizing robots: A case study

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

    Author : Maja Kfouri; Adan Reimers; [2023]
    Keywords : DES; Palletizer robot; Internal logistics; Goods-receipt; KPI; OEE;

    Abstract : Aim: The study aims to develop a DES model to evaluate the impacts of implementing packaging and palletizing robotics in the goods-receipts process. Research questions: RQ1: “What are the requirements when developing a Discrete Event Simulation (DES) model of the goods receipt process in the internal logistics section of a manufacturing company?”, RQ2: “What is the impact of implementing a new layout with industrial palletizer robotics in manufacturing companies' internal logistics - specifically the goods receipt process in terms of robot Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), throughput, and WIP?” and, RQ3: “What considerations should companies take into account when implementing industrial palletizer robotics in their internal logistics, in terms of process flow?” Methodology: This study applied an inductive approach, letting the empirical findings guide the themes explored in the theoretical framework while having a constant interplay between empirical data collection and the construction of the simulation model.

  3. 28. Virtual Reality Startup Guide : Navigating the New Product Development Process for Successful VR Sessions

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Author : Oskar Naij; Lovisa Brenne; [2023]
    Keywords : VR; New Product Development; User guide;

    Abstract : The use of new technologies is important in new product development and virtual reality is a technology that companies today are trying to find use for in their organizations. The problem present today is that there are tools ready to be used that are not because organizations are at different maturity levels of understanding how to work in virtual reality (VR). READ MORE

  4. 29. Model Checked Reinforcement Learning For Multi-Agent Planning

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

    Author : Erik Wetterholm; [2023]
    Keywords : MALTA; UPPAAL; UPPAAL STRATEGO; TImed Games; Q-Learning; Timed Automata; Timed Games;

    Abstract : Autonomous systems, or agents as they sometimes are called can be anything from drones, self-driving cars, or autonomous construction equipment. The systems are often given tasks of accomplishing missions in a group or more. This may require that they can work within the same area without colliding or disturbing other agents' tasks.

  5. 30. Automation of High-accuracy Marking Tasks at MAX IV using the Quadrupedal Robot Spot

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Sebastian Gulz-Haake; Nils Karlbrink Malmquist; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : When installing new research equipment at the synchrotron research laboratory MAX IV, a final positional accuracy of tens of microns is usually needed. To obtain that accuracy, initial reference points must be placed within 2 mm from the nominal target points in CAD, in a process referred to as bluelining. READ MORE
