Process simulation is an effective tool when used to simulate a system where a great deal of data exists for the process. This technique is however limited when it comes to simulating certain non-deterministic parts such as human behaviour and interaction, for which there may not be a great amount of data available. This work creates a unique hybrid model through the combination of process simulation with agent based simulation that simulates the non-deterministic parts of the process, as well as the deterministic parts. An actual industrial system forms the basis for the research, and the hybrid model is used to understand the effects that human deterioration has on the productivity of this system, as well exploring different scenarios that could lead to improved performance.

IntroductionA simple and accurate technique to determine the Burgers vector of a dislocation has become feasible with the advent of HVEM. The conventional image vanishing technique(1) using Bragg conditions with the diffraction vector perpendicular to the Burgers vector suffers from various drawbacks; The dislocation image appears even when the g.b = 0 criterion is satisfied, if the edge component of the dislocation is large. On the other hand, the image disappears for certain high order diffractions even when g.b ≠ 0. Furthermore, the determination of the magnitude of the Burgers vector is not easy with the criterion. Recent image simulation technique is free from the ambiguities but require too many parameters for the computation. The weak-beam “fringe counting” technique investigated in the present study is immune from the problems. Even the magnitude of the Burgers vector is determined from the number of the terminating thickness fringes at the exit of the dislocation in wedge shaped foil surfaces.
