Abstract:
To respond to challenges created by an increase of product variants, multi-variant lines are used as today’s assembly systems. In these multi-variant lines different product variants with diverse lot sizes can be efficiently assembled. These assembly systems are characterized by modular structures that allow assembly system adaptation by reconfiguration.The variety of parameters to be considered from the product’s perspective and the correct allocation of different assembly modules increases the complexity when planning these systems. This complexity makes it difficult to successfully plan and implement production processes. Therefore, digital planning tools and models have to be used to schedule new product variants and to verify that the assembly is possible, given by the modules in the assembly line.Due to its ability to reconfigure, the actual assembly system is adaptable to different product variants. But these modifications are performed by the operator on the shop floor and are often neither properly documented nor communicated to the assembly planer. Thus, the configuration status in reality and the virtual model differ from each other. Using the outdated model for planning without taking into account the changes can result in an unrealizable assembly plan.To overcome this problem, the presented paper introduces a method and technical system to identify the actual assembly system configuration before the assembly planning is done. Due to the subsequent update of the virtual model depending on the actual configuration, the assembly planner is supported with the latest version of the assembly system configuration. Furthermore, the assembly planning process is improved, because possible failures are detected in advance in the virtual planning environment.

Abstract:
A system that integrates design and planning for mechanical assemblies is presented. The system integrates neural network computing that captures designer's design concept and rule-based system to generate a task-level assembly plan automatically. The design concept is expressed by a standard pattern format representing qualitative assembly information. A neural network model together with feature-based model translates the input pattern into a preliminary boundary representation (B-rep). Based on a refinement B-rep assembly representation, assembly plans are generated for practical use in a single-robot assembly workcell. A feasible assembly plan that minimizes tool changes and subassembly reorientations is generated from the system. A robust part collision detection algorithm to generate the precedence relationships among the assembly's components is included in the system. By contrast with many assembly planning systems that used a prolonged question-and-answering session or required knowledge beyond what is typically available in the design database, an automated assembly planning system presented here draws input relationships directly from the conceptual design and the geometry of the assembly. The system developed under this study extracts all reasoning information from the product model and permits the components to be assembled in a multitude of directions. Several experiments illustrate the effectiveness of the designed assembly planning system.

Abstract:
DFA (design for assembly) is an approach to designing products with ease of assembly in mind. Multilayer assembly system construction and possible assembly sequencing are important information for DFA, especially at the prototype design stage of an automobile. This paper aims to help automobile designers construct a hierarchical assembly system, develop a systematic approach to automated subassembly detection, and assembly sequencing in automobile body assembly planning. Modeling of an automobile assembly is given, based on precedence knowledge among automobile parts. Algorithms to detect possible subassemblies with two-step verification and to generate all available sequences are also developed in this study.

Abstract:
Computer-aided design of assembly processes (Computer aided assembly planning, CAAP) of complex products is an important and urgent problem of state-of-the-art information technologies. Intensive research on CAAP has been underway since the 1980s. Meanwhile, specialized design systems were created to provide synthesis of assembly plans and product decompositions into assembly units. Such systems as ASPE, RAPID, XAP / 1, FLAPS, Archimedes, PRELEIDES, HAP, etc. can be given, as an example. These experimental developments did not get widespread use in industry, since they are based on the models of products with limited adequacy and require an expert’s active involvement in preparing initial information. The design tools for the state-of-the-art full-featured CAD/CAM systems (Siemens NX, Dassault CATIA and PTC Creo Elements / Pro), which are designed to provide CAAP, mainly take into account the geometric constraints that the design imposes on design solutions. These systems often synthesize technologically incorrect assembly sequences in which known technological heuristics are violated, for example orderliness in accuracy, consistency with the system of dimension chains, etc.An AssemBL software application package has been developed for a structured analysis of products and a synthesis of assembly plans and decompositions. The AssemBL uses a hyper-graph model of a product that correctly describes coherent and sequential assembly operations and processes. In terms of the hyper-graph model, an assembly operation is described as shrinkage of edge, an assembly plan is a sequence of shrinkages that converts a hyper-graph into the point, and a decomposition of product into assembly units is a hyper-graph partition into sub-graphs.The AssemBL solves the problem of minimizing the number of direct checks for geometric solvability when assembling complex products. This task is posed as a plus-sum two-person game of bicoloured brushing of an ordered set. In the paradigm of this model, the brushing operation is to check a certain structured fragment for solvability by collision detection methods. A rational brushing strategy minimizes the number of such checks.The package is integrated into the Siemens NX 10.0 computer-aided design system. This solution allowed us to combine specialized AssemBL tools with a developed toolkit of one of the most powerful and popular integrated CAD/CAM /CAE systems.

Abstract:
This dissertation focuses on compliant motion planning designed for robotic assembly. A Discrete Complaint Motion Planner (DCMP) reacts to detected discrete contact state transitions and issues compliant motion command to the underlying continuous robot system. It consists of a Qualitative Contact Model, a Compliant Motion Strategy Planner (CMSP) and a Compliant Motion Command Planner (CMCP).How to model and characterize a contact state is a major issue. In this dissertation, contact states are described using the qualitative configuration representation called Feature Interaction Matrix (FIM). A FIM encodes not only the contact information but also the relative configuration between two polyhedral parts. This FIM-based qualitative contact state model has several contributions: 1) an optimization-based approach is developed to verify the hypothetical states in FIM; 2) penetration check for hypothetical contact states through constraint satisfaction is simple and fast; 3) spatial adjacency can be easily determined using convex cone techniques; 4) a generate-and-test method is proposed to expand qualitative states in FIM; 5) compliant motion parameters are derived by an optimization method.The qualitative contact states and how they are connected is modeled with an adjacency graph/sub-graph, where nodes represent qualitative contact states and spatially adjacent contact states are connected by arcs. Each arc represents a desired contact state transition. The CMSP receives contact state transition event from an on-line estimator, then computes/checks the assembly strategy and issues the next desired contact state transition to the CMCP. The compliant motion strategy is computed using graph-search techniques with the automatic construction of the adjacency graph/sub-graph. The CMSP integrate hypotheses generation, hypotheses verification, spatial adjacency and graph search algorithms.When the next desired contact state transition is received, the CMCP computes the compliant motion parameters that are issued to the underlying continues robot system to achieve the desired contact state transition. The generation of motion parameters is defined as an optimization problem and an algorithm is developed to solve it.The DCMP in this dissertation considers both 3D translational and 3D rotational motions. Experiments are carried out to demonstrate the feasibility of the approach for the automatic assembly of polyhedral parts.

Abstract:

The scheduling of material requirements at a factory to maximize profits.or productivity is a difficult mathematical problem. The stochastic nature of most production setups introduces additional complications as a result of the uncertainty involved in vendor reliability and processing times. But in developing the descriptive model for a system, a true representation can only be attained if the variability of these elements is considered.

Here we present the development of a normative model based on a new type of descriptive model which considers the element of stochasticity. The arrival time of an assembly part from a vendor is considered to be a normally distributed random variable. We attempt to optimize the system with regard to work-in-process inventory using a dynamic programming algorithm in combination with a heuristic procedure. The decision variable is the prescribed assembly part delivery date. The model is particularly suitable for application in low volume assembly lines, where products are manufactured in discrete batches.

Abstract:
In product manufacturing, assembly approximately represents 50% of the total work hours. Therefore, an efficient and fast assembly system is crucial to get competitive advantages at the global market and have the right product quality. Today, the verification of the assembly system is mostly done by utilizing software based simulation tools even though limitations have been identified. The purpose of this thesis is to identify when the use of additive manufacturing technology could be used in assessing the feasibility of the assembly system design. The research questions were threefold. First, identifying limitations that are connected with the used assembly simulation tools. Secondly, to investigate when additive manufacturing can act as a complement to these assembly simulations. Finally, to develop a framework that will assist the decision makers when to use additive manufacturing as a complement to assembly simulations. The researchers used the method of case study combined with a literature review. The case study collected data from semi-structured interviews, which formed the major portion of the empirical findings. Observations in a final assembly line and the additive manufacturing workshop provided valuable insights into the complexity of assembly systems and additive manufacturing technologies. In addition, document studies of the used visualization software at the case company resulted in an enhanced understanding of the current setting. The case study findings validate the limitations with assembly simulations described in theory. The most frequent ones are related to visibility, positioning, forces needed for the assembly operator, and accessibility between different parts. As both theory and case study findings are consistent in this respect, simulation engineers should be conscious of when to find other methods than simulation for designing the assembly system. One such alternative method is the utilization of additive manufacturing. The thesis outlines a number of situations where additive manufacturing indeed could act as a complement to assembly simulation. The authors argue that the results and findings to a large degree are applicable to other industries as the automotive sector is very global and competitive in nature and encompasses a large variety of complex assembly operations. A structured framework was also developed that could act as a decision support. The framework takes into account three dimensions that are crucial for the decision; (1) the assembly simulation limitation, (2) the context of the assembly and which parts are involved and (3) the possible limitations of additive manufacturing in the specific context. This impartial decision framework could help companies with complex assembly systems to know when to use additive manufacturing, as well as for which parts and subparts additive manufacturing is applicable. To increase the longevity of the decision framework, new improvements of assembly simulation tools and additive manufacturing technologies, respectively, should be incorporated in the framework.

Abstract:

The forming of an assembly system is a complex task, which should be considered as never ending. In order to successfully plan and implement an assembly system it is of vital importance that the obstacles and preconditions that have an impact on the system are identified and evaluated. This together with the necessary support activities and the attributes of the product to be assembled constitutes the starting point for the forming of the assembly system.

The aim of this thesis is to link the theoretical findings with the issues stated above, and through this explain a best practice approach when forming the assembly system. The theoretical work aims at describing the nature and activities within assembly and manufacturing systems and explains these in three different levels of strategies divided into Manufacturing strategies, Layout, material flow and design strategies and finally Logistic, material handling and quality strategies. Then the obstacles and preconditions found are discussed and evaluated which set the basis for the forming of the assembly system and by linking these with the relevant theory, conceptual design proposals for the assembly system and the Logistic support system are formed.

These are then evaluated and finally a proposal for the detailed layout of the assembly system is given. This proposal is then to be used as a guideline for the company Aercrete when forming their assembly system.

Abstract:
Die gängige Methodik zum Konzipieren automatisierter Montagesysteme umfasst die Planung der Montage und die physische Entwicklung der technischen Gesamtlösung. Zur Abbildung der konkreten Aufgabe werden standardisierte Symbole in einem Ablaufplan miteinander verknüpft. Die Hauptaufgabe des Konstrukteurs ist die Auswahl und die Zusammenstellung einer optimalen Konfiguration der Funktionsträger sowie deren Implementierung in einer Gesamtlösung unter Berücksichtigung der vorgegebenen Randbedingungen. Das Problem ist der fehlende Informationsgehalt der bisher eingesetzten Handhabungssymbole und Symbole zur Ermittlung der Funktionsträger zur Beschreibung der Montage- und Handhabungsplanung sowie die fehlende Vorgehensweise zur Auswahl der Funktionsträger aus den verschiedenen Varianten nach minimaler Taktzeit und Gesamtanschaffungskosten. Zur Realisierung eines effizienten Montageplanungssystems leitet sich daher die Zielstellung ab, den Informationsgehalt der standardisierten Symbole zu erweitern und mit logischen Schnittstellen für eine automatisierte Verknüpfung in der Funktionsfolge auszustatten. Diese neuen Symbole beinhalten die Definition der Funktionen sowie alle Randbedingungen und Parameter zur eindeutigen Beschreibung der Handhabungsaufgabe. Mithilfe dieser Parameter werden Anforderungslisten erstellt und nach passenden Anlagenkomponenten gesucht. Zur Auswahl der optimalen Komponenten des Montagesystems wird das lineare Optimierungsproblem hinsichtlich der Kombination aus Taktzeit und Gesamtanschaffungskosten gelöst.
The common methodology for designing automated assembly systems involves the assembly planning and the physical development of overall technical solution. To illustrate the concrete task, standardized symbols are connected together in a flowchart. The designer's main task is the selection and the composition of an optimal configuration of the functional carriers as well as their implementation in an overall solution in consideration of the predetermined boundary conditions. One problem is the lack of information content of the previously used handling symbols and the symbols for determining the functional carriers, which describe the assembly and handling planning. The other is the insufficient methods for selecting the functional carriers from the different variants based on minimum cycle time and total acquisition cost. In order to realize an efficient assembly planning system, the objective is therefore to expand the information content of the standardized symbols and equip them with logical interfaces for automated connection in the functional sequence. These new symbols contain the definition of the functions as well as all boundary conditions and parameters for the unambiguous description of the handling task. These parameters are utilised to create requirement lists and search for suitable plant components. In order to select the optimal components of the assembly system, the linear optimization problem regarding the combination of cycle time and total acquisition costs is solved.

Abstract:
The global trend towards cost minimisation in manufacturing has intensified during the last two decades. Cost reduction can be achieved either, directly, through elimination of waste, or indirectly, through optimisation of production processes and generating more reliable information regarding the costs incurred. The research presented in this thesis considers cost reduction in three aspects: optimisation of production processes, accurate cost estimation and accounting. Due to the increasing number of combinatorial optimisation problems associated with the production of Printed Circuit Boards (PCB), it has attracted the attention of many researchers who tried to solve these problems with the aim of minimising the production cost. Therefore, PCB production is used in this research as a test-bed for the three aspects mentioned above. Regarding cost reduction in PCB manufacturing, three interrelated combinatorial optimisation problems are considered: the component placement sequencing problem, the feeder assignment problem and the board type sequencing problem. Solving these problems ensures cost reduction by reducing the time required for manufacturing PCBs. As for cost reduction in the costing and accounting aspects, the traditional standard costing and standard accounting have some problems that make them unsuitable for today's manufacturing. Standard costing allocates overhead to labour or machine hours, which leads to a distortion of product costs due to the fact that today's manufacturing relies more on technology and less on human power. As for standard accounting, it has some features and characteristics that contradict with the widely spread lean manufacturing. The deficiencies in standard costing and standard accounting may create more waste and lead to the wrong decisions being taken. A framework is developed to provide solution to the above-mentioned problems in an integrated environment. A mathematical formulation for the three PCB manufacturing-related problems is developed and solved using a metaheuristic-based algorithm. In order to deal with the costing and accounting part of the framework developed, Activity Based-Costing (ABC) and Lean Accounting (LA) are implemented on a PCB manufacturing facility using a case study. ABC is used to estimate the costs of manufacturing PCBs and provide detailed information on how the costs are incurred. As for LA, it is used to reduce the costs associated with the accounting system, which is achieved by eliminating and/or replacing accounting transactions and promoting lean measures. Simulation results obtained show an average reduction in total assembly time of 5.96% and 5.43% when Taboo Search (TS) and Genetic Algorithms (GA) metaheuristics are used respectively. The results also show how ABC can be used to identify the activities used in PCB manufacturing and calculate their costs. By targeting the most costly activities identified by ABC, the production costs can be reduced. Regarding LA, the results indicate how the accounting system costs can be reduced by eliminating some accounting transactions and processes or replacing them with less costly alternatives.

Abstract:
Due to increased competition, the rate at which manufacturers introduce new product families to the market is increasing. However, the cost of changing manufacturing facilities to produce new product families can outweigh the benefits obtained from increased revenue. Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMSs) have been proposed as a cost effective strategy for manufacturing product families. Although methods for measuring RMS scalability and convertibility exist, there is a lack of methods for obtaining reconfiguration plans for assembly systems. This paper introduces assembly system reconfiguration planning (ASRP) as method to obtain reconfiguration plans for assembly systems. A genetic algorithm is developed for solving the ASRP problem.

Abstract:
In this paper, we introduce multiple random trees based motion planning to perform assembly sequence planning for complex assemblies. Initially, given an assembly model, our technique performs disassembly sequence planning. This approach dynamically reduces the size and complexity of the assembly based on a hierarchical exploration structure that keeps information about the completion of the disassembly. Next, the disassembly information is used to generate feasible assembly sequences, along with precedence constraints, to assemble each part into the current subassembly. The motion planning system chooses part order by detecting geometrical interferences and analyzing feasible part movements. Results from tests on a variety of complex assemblies validate the efficiency of our approach.

Abstract:
The need to cost effectively introduce new generations of product families within ever decreasing time frames have led manufacturers to seek product development strategies with a multigenerational outlook. Co-evolution of product families and assembly systems is a methodology that leads to the simultaneous design of several generations of product families and reconfigurable assembly systems that optimize life cycle costs. Two strategies that are necessary for the implementation of the co-evolution of product families and assembly systems methodology are: (1) The concurrent design of product families and assembly systems and (2) Assembly system reconfiguration planning (ASRP). ASRP is used for the determination of the assembly system reconfiguration plans that minimize the cost of producing several generations of product families. More specifically, the objective of ASRP is to minimize the net present cost of producing successive generations of products. This paper introduces a method for finding optimum solutions to the ASRP problem. The solution methodology involves the generation of a staged network of assembly system plans for all the generations that the product family is expected to be produced. Each stage in the network represents a generation that the product family is produced, while each state within a stage represents a potential assembly system configuration. A novel algorithm for generating the states (i.e. assembly system configurations) within each generation is also introduced. A dynamic program is used to find the cost minimizing path through the network. An example is used to demonstrate the implementation of the ASRP methodology.

Abstract:
This report maps the African landscape of Open Science – with a focus on Open Data as a sub-set of Open Science. Data to inform the landscape study were collected through a variety of methods, including surveys, desk research, engagement with a community of practice, networking with stakeholders, participation in conferences, case study presentations, and workshops hosted. Although the majority of African countries (35 of 54) demonstrates commitment to science through its investment in research and development (R&D), academies of science, ministries of science and technology, policies, recognition of research, and participation in the Science Granting Councils Initiative (SGCI), the following countries demonstrate the highest commitment and political willingness to invest in science: Botswana, Ethiopia, Kenya, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda. In addition to existing policies in Science, Technology and Innovation (STI), the following countries have made progress towards Open Data policies: Botswana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mauritius, South Africa and Uganda. Only two African countries (Kenya and South Africa) at this stage contribute 0.8% of its GDP (Gross Domestic Product) to R&D (Research and Development), which is the closest to the AU’s (African Union’s) suggested 1%. Countries such as Lesotho and Madagascar ranked as 0%, while the R&D expenditure for 24 African countries is unknown. In addition to this, science globally has become fully dependent on stable ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) infrastructure, which includes connectivity/bandwidth, high performance computing facilities and data services. This is especially applicable since countries globally are finding themselves in the midst of the 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR), which is not only “about” data, but which “is” data. According to an article1 by Alan Marcus (2015) (Senior Director, Head of Information Technology and Telecommunications Industries, World Economic Forum), “At its core, data represents a post-industrial opportunity. Its uses have unprecedented complexity, velocity and global reach. As digital communications become ubiquitous, data will rule in a world where nearly everyone and everything is connected in real time. That will require a highly reliable, secure and available infrastructure at its core, and innovation at the edge.” Every industry is affected as part of this revolution – also science. An important component of the digital transformation is “trust” – people must be able to trust that governments and all other industries (including the science sector), adequately handle and protect their data. This requires accountability on a global level, and digital industries must embrace the change and go for a higher standard of protection. “This will reassure consumers and citizens, benefitting the whole digital economy”, says Marcus. A stable and secure information and communication technologies (ICT) infrastructure – currently provided by the National Research and Education Networks (NRENs) – is key to advance collaboration in science. The AfricaConnect2 project (AfricaConnect (2012–2014) and AfricaConnect2 (2016–2018)) through establishing connectivity between National Research and Education Networks (NRENs), is planning to roll out AfricaConnect3 by the end of 2019. The concern however is that selected African governments (with the exception of a few countries such as South Africa, Mozambique, Ethiopia and others) have low awareness of the impact the Internet has today on all societal levels, how much ICT (and the 4th Industrial Revolution) have affected research, and the added value an NREN can bring to higher education and research in addressing the respective needs, which is far more complex than simply providing connectivity. Apart from more commitment and investment in R&D, African governments – to become and remain part of the 4th Industrial Revolution – have no option other than to acknowledge and commit to the role NRENs play in advancing science towards addressing the SDG (Sustainable Development Goals). For successful collaboration and direction, it is fundamental that policies within one country are aligned with one another. Alignment on continental level is crucial for the future Pan-African African Open Science Platform to be successful. Both the HIPSSA ((Harmonization of ICT Policies in Sub-Saharan Africa)3 project and WATRA (the West Africa Telecommunications Regulators Assembly)4, have made progress towards the regulation of the telecom sector, and in particular of bottlenecks which curb the development of competition among ISPs. A study under HIPSSA identified potential bottlenecks in access at an affordable price to the international capacity of submarine cables and suggested means and tools used by regulators to remedy them. Work on the recommended measures and making them operational continues in collaboration with WATRA. In addition to sufficient bandwidth and connectivity, high-performance computing facilities and services in support of data sharing are also required. The South African National Integrated Cyberinfrastructure System5 (NICIS) has made great progress in planning and setting up a cyberinfrastructure ecosystem in support of collaborative science and data sharing. The regional Southern African Development Community6 (SADC) Cyber-infrastructure Framework provides a valuable roadmap towards high-speed Internet, developing human capacity and skills in ICT technologies, high- performance computing and more. The following countries have been identified as having high-performance computing facilities, some as a result of the Square Kilometre Array7 (SKA) partnership: Botswana, Ghana, Kenya, Madagascar, Mozambique, Mauritius, Namibia, South Africa, Tunisia, and Zambia. More and more NRENs – especially the Level 6 NRENs 8 (Algeria, Egypt, Kenya, South Africa, and recently Zambia) – are exploring offering additional services; also in support of data sharing and transfer. The following NRENs already allow for running data-intensive applications and sharing of high-end computing assets, bio-modelling and computation on high-performance/ supercomputers: KENET (Kenya), TENET (South Africa), RENU (Uganda), ZAMREN (Zambia), EUN (Egypt) and ARN (Algeria). Fifteen higher education training institutions from eight African countries (Botswana, Benin, Kenya, Nigeria, Rwanda, South Africa, Sudan, and Tanzania) have been identified as offering formal courses on data science. In addition to formal degrees, a number of international short courses have been developed and free international online courses are also available as an option to build capacity and integrate as part of curricula. The small number of higher education or research intensive institutions offering data science is however insufficient, and there is a desperate need for more training in data science. The CODATA-RDA Schools of Research Data Science aim at addressing the continental need for foundational data skills across all disciplines, along with training conducted by The Carpentries 9 programme (specifically Data Carpentry 10 ). Thus far, CODATA-RDA schools in collaboration with AOSP, integrating content from Data Carpentry, were presented in Rwanda (in 2018), and during17-29 June 2019, in Ethiopia. Awareness regarding Open Science (including Open Data) is evident through the 12 Open Science-related Open Access/Open Data/Open Science declarations and agreements endorsed or signed by African governments; 200 Open Access journals from Africa registered on the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ); 174 Open Access institutional research repositories registered on openDOAR (Directory of Open Access Repositories); 33 Open Access/Open Science policies registered on ROARMAP (Registry of Open Access Repository Mandates and Policies); 24 data repositories registered with the Registry of Data Repositories (re3data.org) (although the pilot project identified 66 research data repositories); and one data repository assigned the CoreTrustSeal. Although this is a start, far more needs to be done to align African data curation and research practices with global standards. Funding to conduct research remains a challenge. African researchers mostly fund their own research, and there are little incentives for them to make their research and accompanying data sets openly accessible. Funding and peer recognition, along with an enabling research environment conducive for research, are regarded as major incentives. The landscape report concludes with a number of concerns towards sharing research data openly, as well as challenges in terms of Open Data policy, ICT infrastructure supportive of data sharing, capacity building, lack of skills, and the need for incentives. Although great progress has been made in terms of Open Science and Open Data practices, more awareness needs to be created and further advocacy efforts are required for buy-in from African governments. A federated African Open Science Platform (AOSP) will not only encourage more collaboration among researchers in addressing the SDGs, but it will also benefit the many stakeholders identified as part of the pilot phase. The time is now, for governments in Africa, to acknowledge the important role of science in general, but specifically Open Science and Open Data, through developing and aligning the relevant policies, investing in an ICT infrastructure conducive for data sharing through committing funding to making NRENs financially sustainable, incentivising open research practices by scientists, and creating opportunities for more scientists and stakeholders across all disciplines to be trained in data management.
