A Review of Current Challenges in Production Planning
Journal Title: Acta Technica Jaurinensis - Year 2015, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
For manufacturing companies growing customer expectations, shortening product life cycles and increasing product variant numbers mean great challenges. Overcoming these is a major task for production planning, which is responsible for coordinating all business processes directly related to manufacturing. This paper presents important activities of production planning giving an integrative overview, and presents the digital factory concept with special attention to problems and their possible solutions. It concludes with challenges still waiting to be resolved and future development trends.

Evaluation of Head Movements in Short-term Measurements and Recordings with Human Subjects using Head-Tracking Sensors
Measurements for spatial hearing research, binaural recordings, virtual reality techniques etc. often rely on Head-Related Transfer Functions of human subjects, head-tracking techniques etc. Individually measured HRTFs a...
Analysation of the Effect of the Contact Properties on Soil’s Penetration Resistance in Discrete Element Simulations
Cone penetration in-situ tests are commonly used to measure the cone index of the soils. This measurement process can be modelled very well with Discrete Element Method (DEM) if the parameters of the correct contact mode...
Direct Instantaneous Torque Control of the Switched Reluctance Motor for Electric Vehicles Applications Using Fuzzy Logic Control
This paper presents direct torque control of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) using Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) for electric vehicles applications. The PD-FLC is proposed for SRM torque control, to keep the torque of the mo...
