Manual assembly operations are sensitive to human errors that can diminish the quality of final products. The paper shows an application reliability analysis in a realistic manufacturing context identify where and why manual occur. techniques SHERPA HEART were used perform reliability. Three critical tasks selected for based on records: (1) installation three types brackets using fasteners, (2)...

The FAA currently uses its Automated Flight Inspection System (AFIS) to check the accuracy of Instrument Landing Systems (ILS) and other navaids. It is desirable to measure the deviations of the ILS to within 0.015 degree accuracy. Therefore, a flight inspection system requires a high level of accuracy in determining position which is computed by a Flight Inspection Truth System (FITS). The AFI...

In this study, we investigate an integrated production-inventory system consisting of a single-vendor and single-buyer. The buyer manages its inventory level periodically at a certain period of time. We consider a fuzzy annual demand, imperfect production, inspection errors, partial backordering, and adjustable production rate in the proposed model. Additionally, it is assumed that the protecti...

This report is divided into five major sections. The Background outlines the role of training in inspection and individual differences in inspection performance. The next section details the methodology used to conduct the individual differences study. These results are then discussed in further detail. Finally, the conclusion outlines the implications of this study for improving inspection per...

Errors in the design and implementation of operating system kernels and system programs lead to security problems that very often cause a complete breakdown of all security mechanisms of the system. We present the architecture of the JX operating system, which avoids two categories of these errors. First, there are implementation errors, such as buffer overflows, dangling pointers, and memory l...

A vision-based robot self-calibration method is proposed in this paper to evaluate the kinematic parameter errors of a robot using a visual sensor mounted on its end-effector. This approach could be performed in the industrial field without external, expensive apparatus or an elaborate setup. A robot Tool Center Point (TCP) is defined in the structural model of a line-structured laser sensor, a...

This paper presents an integrated machining error compensation method based on polynomial neural network (PNN) approach and inspection database of on-machine-measurement (OMM) system. To improve the accuracy of the OMM system, geometric errors of the CNC machining center and probing errors are compensated. Machining error distributions of a specimen workpiece are measured to obtain error compen...

We analyze errors in the global bathymetry models of Smith and Sandwell that combine satellite altimetry with acoustic soundings and shorelines to estimate depths. Versions of these models have been incorporated into Google Earth and the General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO). We use Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) multibeam surveys not previously incorpo...
