Remanufacturing is an active area of research due to its cost saving capabilities and emission-reduction benefits. After being disassembled, cleaned and inspected, the core components go through a series of reconditioning operations before being reassembled into the final remanufactured product, and tested to ensure quality. However, used core components have varying conditions, different defec...

This paper investigates time-invariant linear systems subject to input and state constraints. It is shown that the recoverable region (which is the largest domain of attraction that is theoretically achievable) can be semiglobally stabilized by continuous nonlinear feedbacks while satisfying the constraints. Moreover, a reduction technique is presented which shows, when trying to compute the re...

-In connection with loop transfer recovery of nonminimum phase systems, the purpose of this paper is two-fold: (1) to study the set of recoverable target loops and to establish necessary or/and sufficient conditions for a given plant to have at least one recoverable target loop, and (2) to show that the compensator structure developed earlier in Chen, Saberi and Sannuti [(1991) Automatica, 27, ...

In a market with rapid changes in technology and customer preferences, technological obsolescence of end-of-life products poses a significant challenge to product recovery. Remanufacturing with optimal part upgrades can be a promising solution for overcoming the obsolescence. This paper proposes a model for positioning a remanufactured product. By considering original product design, target mar...

Remanufacturing is one of the main practices toward a circular economy and industrial sustainability. highly dependent on how products are designed developed. can also benefit from automation for efficiency, accuracy flexibility. This paper, via multiple case study, connects three areas remanufacturing, product design investigates facilitate remanufacturing processes. First, guidelines discusse...

Event-related brain potentials (ERPs) were recorded to fragmented pictures of objects that were named correctly or were not to investigate the time course of visual object identification. The first ERP difference distinguishing identified from unidentified pictures estimates the upper limit of the time by which human brain regions have begun to activate long-term memory (LTM) representations sp...

*Correspondence: [email protected] School of Economics and Management, Tongji University, Siping Road, 200092 Shanghai, China Abstract This paper considers a pricing and remanufacturing problem in closed-loop supply chain which includes one dominant manufacturer and one retailer under uncertain environment. The remanufacturing cost, market demand, and collection cost are characterized as unce...

In this paper, the CNC machine spindle after remanufacturing is researched as an object on uncertain constraints. At first, the equations of the machine spindle motion based on beam theory are established. This article uses Finite Element Analysis (FEA) function to analyze the remanufacturing of machine spindle system in the free mode and while static and the actual working conditions of multi-...
