This paper introduces an analytical method for evaluating the performance of closed loop manufacturing systems with unreliable machines and finite buffers. The method involves transforming an arbitrary loop into one without thresholds and then evaluating the transformed loop using a new set of decomposition equations. It is more accurate than existing methods and is effective for a wider range of cases. The convergence reliability, and speed of the method are also discussed. In addition, observations are made on the behavior of closed loop production systems under various conditions. Finally, the method is used in a case study to design a flexible manufacturing system for production of aerospace parts.

AbstractMotivated by the increasing demand of mass customisation in production systems, this paper proposes a robust and adaptive scheduling and dispatching method for high-mix human-robot collaborative manufacturing facilities. Scheduling and dispatching rules are derived to optimally track the desired production within the mix, while handling uncertainty in job processing times. The sequencing policy is dynamically adjusted by online forecasting the throughput of the facility as a function of the scheduling and dispatching rules. Numerical verification experiments confirm the possibility to accurately track highly variable production requests, despite the uncertainty of the system.

The idea of DC-DC converter with multi-input is yet to attain a vital role in the field of 'hybrid energy system (HES)' integration and electric vehicle applications. So, the analysis of the dynamic behavior of the multi input converters is crucial in designing a proper controller to achieve a stable performance. This paper reports a 'small signal model (SSM)' and the performance analysis of a 'dual-input DC-DC converter (DIC)'. The parasitic resistances of capacitor and inductor are considered in the modelling. The significant transfer function (TF)s are derived with the help of the SSM, and the Bode plots for the TFs have been obtained. The performance analysis shows that the derived TFs allow better closed loop performance of the system. The simulation of the DIC converter in MATLAB/ Simulink® has been carried out and the simulation waveforms are presented. A hardware setup of the DIC converter is fabricated and experimented in the laboratory. The dynamic performance of the DIC is analyzed under the variations in the source and load conditions. The presented converter with a closed loop controller can be used in the applications to formulate a HES with solar-PV, battery, fuel cell, etc. Also the performance comparison of the DIC converter has been performed with other reported converters which shows that the DIC converter has higher efficiency and several other potential merits.
