  1. 26. Cost Optimisation through Statistical Quality Control : A case study on the plastic industry

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för industriell ekonomi

    Author : Pontus Moberg; Filip Svensson; [2021]
    Keywords : Cost Optimisation; Quality Management; Cost of Quality; P-A-F Model; Statistical Quality Control; Statistical Process Control;

    Abstract : Background. Shewhart was the first to describe the possibilities that come with having a statistically robust process in 1924. Since his discovery, the importance of a robust process became more apparent and together with the consequences of an unstable process. READ MORE

  2. 27. Periodical Maintenance Modelling and Optimisation Assuming Imperfect Preventive Maintenance and Perfect Corrective Maintenance

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Madeleine Engvall Birr; Lisette Lansryd; [2021]
    Keywords : Master Thesis; Maintenance Management; Maintenance Modelling; Imperfect PM; Perfect CM; Periodic Policy; Genetic Algorithms; Age Reduction; Masterexamensarbete; Underhållsarbete; Underhållsmodellering; Ofullständiga FU; Perfekta AU; Periodisk Planläggning; Genetiska Algoritmer; Åldersreduktion;

    Abstract : In this paper, a periodic maintenance model is formulated assumingcontinuous monitoring, imperfect preventive maintenance (PM) and perfect correctivemaintenance (CM) using three decision variables, (I, N, Z). The model is derived in aninfinite horizon context where the mean cost per unit time is modelled. READ MORE

  3. 28. Comparing database optimisation techniques in PostgreSQL : Indexes, query writing and the query optimiser

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Elizabeth Inersjö; [2021]
    Keywords : PostgreSQL; Query optimisation; Query tuning; Database indexing; Database tuning; DBMS; PostgreSQL; SQL optimering; DBMS; SQL justering; Databasoptimering; Indexering;

    Abstract : Databases are all around us, and ensuring their efficiency is of great importance. Database optimisation has many parts and many methods, two of these parts are database tuning and database optimisation. These can then further be split into methods such as indexing. READ MORE

    Abstract : This report identifies and investigates possible investment alternatives and operational improvements to the production of perforating punches. The analysis is conducted for a leading Swedish manufacturer in the industry. First, an analysis of the company and its customers is performed, followed by a study of the current production capabilities. READ MORE

  5. 30. Design of a Level Sensing System for the Propellant Tank of a Microlauncher

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Robin Scholtes; [2021]
    Keywords : Level Sensing; Cryogenic; Microlauncher; Liquid Oxygen; Nivåavkänning; Kryogen; Mikrobärraket; Flytande Syre;

    Abstract : The present report aims to show the development process of a liquid level sensing system for the use within the propellant tanks of a launch vehicle. Whereas many recent launchers use discrete level sensing systems to indicate the amount of fuel on defined spots like fill-stop and engine cut-off, in this report a continuous capacitance based sensor probe is described.
