Mathematical morphology for design and manufacturing

Mathematical morphology for design and manufacturing

 In general geometric models, the design of objects is usually separated from the manufacture  At the present, two general solid modeling representations dominate: B-REP (Boundary representation) and CSG (Constructive Solid Geometry)  They have some drawbacks:  The design of complex objects is usually complicated.  CSG: limited number of primitives for free surfaces design  B-REP: modific...

Design of a New Mathematical Model for Integrated Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing Systems and Production Planning

This paper presents a new mathematical model for integrated dynamic cellular manufacturing systems and production planning that minimizes machine purchasing, intra-cell material handling, cell reconfiguration and setup costs. The presented model forms the manufacturing cells and determines the quantity of machine and movements  during each period of time. This problem is NP-hard, so a meta-heur...

A Comprehensive Mathematical Model for the Design of a Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing System Integrated with Production Planning and Several Manufacturing Attributes

    Dynamic cellular manufacturing systems,   Mixed-integer non-linear programming,   Production planning, Manufacturing attributes   This paper presents a novel mixed-integer non-linear programming model for the design of a dynamic cellular manufacturing system (DCMS) based on production planning (PP) decisions and several manufacturing attributes. Such an integrated DCMS model with an extensi...

Design and Development of Mathematical Model for Static Mixer

A numerical model for simulating Residence Time Distribution (RTD) of turbulent flows in helical static mixers is proposed and developed to improve the understanding of static mixers. The results of this model is presented in terms of different volumetric flow rate to illustrate the complicated flow patterns that drive the mixing process i...
