Abstract: When maintenance resources in a manufacturing system are limited, a challenge arises in determining how to allocate these resources among multiple competing maintenance jobs. This work formulates an online prioritization ...

Abstract: Healthcare experts have come to a consensus that effective and safe vaccines are necessary to control the rapid spread of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic across the globe. Since the traditional vaccine development and ...

Abstract: An important part of the engineering design process is prototyping, where designers build and test their designs. This process is typically iterative, time consuming, and manual in nature. For a given task, there are ...

Abstract: Manufacturers have faced an increasing need for the development of predictive models that predict mechanical failures and the remaining useful life (RUL) of manufacturing systems or components. Classical model-based or ...

Abstract: The emergence of cloud computing, industrial internet of things (IIoT), and new machine learning techniques have shown the potential to advance prognostics and health management (PHM) in smart manufacturing. While model-based ...

Abstract: Metal additive manufacturing (MAM) offers a larger design space with greater manufacturability than traditional manufacturing. Despite continued advances, MAM processes still face huge uncertainty, resulting in variable ...
