Abstract:
A flexible workcell controller has been developed using a three level control hierarchy (workcell, workstation, equipment). The cell controller is automatically generated from a model input by the user. The model consists of three sets of graphs. One set of graphs describes the process plans of the parts produced by the manufacturing system, one set describes movements into, out of and within workstations, and the third set describes movements of parts/transporters between workstations. The controller uses an event driven Petri net to maintain state information and to communicate with lower level controllers. The control logic is contained in an artificial neural network. The Petri net state information is used as the input to the neural net and messages that are Petri net events are output from the neural net. A genetic algorithm was used to search over alternative operation choices to find a "good" solution. The system was fully implemented and several test cases are described.

Abstract:
Per molti anni la ricerca scientifica si è concentrata sui diversi aspetti di gestione dei sistemi manifatturieri, dall’ottimizzazione dei singoli processi produttivi, fino alla gestione delle più complesse imprese virtuali. Tuttavia molti aspetti inerenti il coordinamento e il controllo, ancora presentano problematiche rilevanti in ambito industriale e temi di ricerca aperti. L’applicazione di tecnologie avanzate e di strumenti informatici evoluti non riesce da sola a garantire il successo nelle funzioni di controllo e di integrazione. Al fine di ottenere un alto grado di efficienza, è necessario supportare tali tecnologie e strumenti con dei modelli che siano in grado di rappresentare le funzionalità e i processi dei sistemi manifatturieri, e consentano di prevederne e gestirne l’evoluzione. Ne emerge l’esigenza di politiche di controllo e di gestio ne distribuite, che favoriscano l’auto-organizzazione e la cooperazione nei sistemi manifatturieri. I sistemi manifatturieri flessibili distribuiti (DFMS), in risposta a tale esigenza, sono sistemi di produzione dinamici in grado di garantire una risposta in tempo reale alla allocazione ottima delle risorse, e organizzare efficientemente le lavorazioni dei prodotti. In questa tesi viene proposta una modellizzazione a livelli per tali sistemi. Secondo tale rappresentazione un DFMS può essere visto come un grafo strutturato su più livelli, tale che: i vertici del grafo rappresentano le risorse interagenti nel sistema; ogni nodo di un livello rappresenta a sua volta un livello successivo. Partendo da questa rappresentazione, sono stati quindi sviluppati due modelli per lo studio dell’allocazione ottima delle risorse (task mapping) e per l’organizzazione di lavorazioni (task scheduling) che richiedono l’uso simultaneo di risorse condivise nel sistema. Il task mapping problem consiste nella suddivisione bilanciata di un certo insieme di lavorazioni tra le risorse del sistema. In questa tesi si è studiato il caso in cui le lavorazioni sono omogenee, non presentano vincoli di precedenza, ma necessitano di un certo volume di comunicazione tra le risorse cui sono assegnate per garantirne il coordinamento, incidendo in tal senso sulla complessità di gestione. L’analisi critica dei modelli che sono tipicamente usati in letteratura per rappresentare tale problema, ne hanno posto in evidenza l’inadeguatezza. Attraverso alcuni risultati teorici si è quindi dimostrato come il problema possa ricondursi ad un hypergraph partitioning problem. Studiando la formulazione matematica di tali problemi, e limitandosi al caso di due risorse produttive, si è infine giunti alla determinazione di una buona approssimazione sulla soluzione ottima. Il problema di sequenziamento delle lavorazioni (task scheduling) che richiedono l’uso simultaneo di risorse condivise è stato trattato nel caso specifico di celle robotizzate. E’ stata quindi dimostrata l’NP-completezza di questo problema ed è stata progettata una euristica di soluzione, validandone i risultati in diversi scenari produttivi.
For several years, research has focused on several aspects of manufacturing, from the individual processes towards the management of virtual enterprises, but several aspects, like coordination and control, still have relevant problems in industry and remain challenging areas of research. The application of advanced technologies and informational tools by itself does not guarantee the success of control and integration applications. In order to get a high degree of integration and efficiency, it is necessary to match the technologies and tools with models that describe the existing knowledge and functionality in the system and allow the correct understanding of its behaviour. In a global and wide market competition, the manufacturing systems present requirements that lead to distributed, self-organised, co-operative and heterogeneous control applications. A Distributed Flexible Manufacturing System (DFMS) is a goal-driven and data-directed dynamic system which is designed to provide an effective operation sequence for the products to fulfil the production goals, to meet real-time requirements and to optimally allocate resources. In this work first a layered approach for modeling such production systems is proposed. According to that representation, a DFMS may be seen as multi-layer resource-graph such that: vertices on a layer represent interacting resources; a layer at level l is represented by a node in the layer at level (l-1). Then two models are developed concerning with two relevant managerial issues in DFMS, the task mapping problem and the task scheduling with multiple shared resources problem. The task mapping problem concerns with the balanced partition of a given set of jobs and the assignment of the parts to the resources of the manufacturing system. We study the case in which the jobs are quite homogeneous, do not have precedence constraints, but need some communications to be coordinated. So, jobs assignment to different parts causes a relevant communication effort between those parts, increasing the managerial complexity. We show that the standard models usually used to formal represent such a problem are wrong. Through some graph theoretical results we relate the problem to the well-known hypergraph partitioning problem and briefly survey the best techniques to solve the problem. A new formulation of the problem is then presented. Some considerations on an improved version of the formulation permit the computation of a good Lower Bound on the optimal solution in the case of the hypergraph bisection. The task scheduling with multiple shared resources problem is addressed for a robotic cell. We study the general problem of sequencing multiple jobs, where each job consists of multiple ordered tasks and tasks execution requires simultaneous usage of several resources. NP-completeness results are given. A heuristic with a guarantee approximation result is designed and evaluated.

Abstract:

Flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) are production systems consisting of identical multipurpose numerically controlled machines (workstations), automated material handling system, tools, load and unload stations, inspection stations, storage areas and a hierarchical control system. The latter has the task of coordinating and integrating all the components of the whole system for automatic operations. A particular characteristic of FMSs is their complexity along with the difficulties in building analytical models that capture the system in all its important aspects. Thus optimal control strategies, or at least good ones, are hard to find and the full potential of manufacturing systems is not completely exploited.

The complexity of these systems induces a division of the control approaches based on the time frame they are referred to: long, medium and short term. This thesis addresses the short-term control of a FMS. The objective is to define control strategies, based on system state feedback, that fully exploit the flexibility built into those systems. Difficulties arise since the metrics that have to be minimized are often conflicting and some kind of trade-offs must be made using "common sense". The problem constraints are often expressed in a rigid and "crisp" way while their nature is more "fuzzy" and the search for an analytical optimum does not always reflect production needs. Indeed, practical and production oriented approaches are more geared toward a good and robust solution.

This thesis addresses the above mentioned problems proposing a fuzzy scheduler and a reinforcement-learning approach to tune its parameters. The learning procedure is based on evolutionary programming techniques and uses a performance index that contains the degree of satisfaction of multiple and possibly conflicting objectives. This approach addresses the design of the controller by means of language directives coming from the management, thus not requiring any particular interface between management and designers.

The performances of the fuzzy scheduler are then compared to those of commonly used heuristic rules. The results show some improvement offered by fuzzy techniques in scheduling that, along with ease of design, make their applicability promising. Moreover, fuzzy techniques are effective in reducing system congestion as is also shown by slower performance degradation than heuristics for decreasing inter- arrival time of orders. Finally, the proposed paradigm could be extended for on-line adaptation of the scheduler, thus fully responding to the flexibility needs of FMSs.

Abstract:
Notre thèse est consacrée à l’étude de la supervision des réseaux de Petri en vue de la conception de systèmes manufacturiers flexibles. L’objectif est la définition de stratégies de pilotage en ligne pour l’évitement de conflits et d’interblocages, dans le cadre de la théorie de la supervision. Le point de départ de notre travail est d’exploiterle graphe de marquage du réseau de Petri, ce qui permet en particulier d’obtenir des stratégies de commande maximalement permissive pour des problèmes d’évitement de conflits et d’interblocages. Nous avons ainsi introduit des techniques originales, manipulations d’inégalités ou réductions d’ensembles de marquages, destinées à diminuerla complexité algorithmique d’une telle méthode. Dans premier temps, nous avons focalisé sur la synthèse de superviseurs dits purs, ce qui correspond au cas particulier où l’ensemble de marquage légaux, est convexe.Cette optimisation est ensuite considérée du point de vue de la facilité de mise en oeuvre. Nous traitons ainsi de la minimisation de la structure du superviseur et de son coût d’implémentation en préservant une structure de supervision qui offre à la fois la permissivité maximale et une complexité de calcul raisonnable en vue d’utilisationsur des installations réelles. Aussi, nous avons cherché à réduire le nombre de places de contrôle nécessaires pour réaliser un superviseur maximalement permissif, pour cela nous avons formule le calcul du nombre minimal de places de contrôle en termes d’un problème de programmation linéaire. Afin d’affaiblir la complexité de ce calcul de superviseur, deux versions de l’algorithme sont proposées. Ce problème de minimisation de la taille dusuperviseur, quoique fondamental, n’est pas abordé aussi directement dans la littérature. Il s’agit là d’une première contribution.Dans u second temps, nous nous sommes intéressés aux réseaux de Petri à boucles (self-loops). Les boucles étant représentées par une variable qui s’ajoute dans la contrainte inégalité définissant l’ensemble de marquages légaux. Après avoir proposé une méthode de réduction du nombre d’inégalités ainsi que du superviseur optimalen se basant sur les approches et résultats précédents, nous avons établi une condition suffisante d’obtention d’un superviseur maximalement permissif permettant de traiter des ensembles de marquages légaux non convexes.Enfin nous proposons une méthode de synthèse de contrôleur pour une nouvelle classe de réseaux de Petri, avec des arcs inhibiteurs correspondant à des contraintes définies par des intervalles. La taille du contrôleur ainsi obtenu et défini en termes d’arcs inhibiteurs à intervalles s’en trouve réduite ainsi que par conséquent sont coût d’implémentation
Reachability graph analysis is an important technique for deadlockcontrol, which always suffers from a state explosion problem since it requires togenerate all or a part of reachable markings.Based on this technique, an optimal or suboptimal supervisor with high behavioralpermissiveness can always be achieved. This thesis focuses on designing liveness enforcing Petri net supervisors for FMSs by considering their behavioralpermissiveness, supervisory structure, and computationnal complexity.The following research contributions are made in this thesis.1. The design of a maximally permissive liveness-enforcing supervisor for an FMSis proposed by solving integer linear programming problems (ILPPs).2. Structural complexity is also an important issue for a maximally permissivePetri net supervisor. A deadlock prevention policy for FMSs is proposed, which canobtain a maximally permissive liveness-enforcing Petri net supervisor while thenumber of control places is compressed.3. In order to overcome the computational complexity problem in MCPP and ensurethat the controlled system is maximally permissive with a simple structure, wedevelop an iterative deadlock prevention policy and a modified version.4. We consider the hardware and software costs in the stage of controlimplementation of a deadlock prevention policy, aiming to obtain a maximallypermissive Petri net supervisor with the lowest implementation cost. A supervisorconsists of a set of control places and the arcs connecting control places totransitions. We assign an implementation cost for each control place and controland observation costs for each transition. Based on reachability graph analysis,maximal permissiveness can be achieved by designing place invariants that prohibitall FBMs but no legal markings.5. Self-loops are used to design maximally permissive supervisors. A self-loop ina Petri net cannot be mathematically represented by its incidence matrix. Wepresent a mathematical method to design a maximally permissive Petri netsupervisor that is expressed by a set of control places with self-loops. A controlplace with a self-loop can be represented by a constraint and a selfloopassociated with a transition whose firing may lead to an illegal marking

Abstract:
The technology of direct digital additive manufacturing (D2AM) has received considerable attention in recent months. Several government agencies and commercial interests are planning to explore D2AM to find solutions to manufacturing problems. The attraction of D2AM is the benefit of rapidly producing without fixtures or tools or human intervention customized objects of complex geometry not possible by traditional methods. The interest in D2AM ranges from fabrication of critical, high value aerospace metallic components to fabrication of objects having an organic look or as nature would have intendedi. For D2AM to be commercially accepted, it must reliably and predictably make products. It must achieve consistency in reproducibility across relevant D2AM methods. The Office of Naval Research (ONR) has launched a new basic research program, known as Cyber-enabled Manufacturing Systems (CeMS). The long-range goal of the program is to achieve the level of control over D2AM processes for industrial acceptance and wide-use of the technology. This program will develop measuring, sensing and control models and algorithms for D2AM by harnessing principles underpinning cyber-physical systems (CPS) and fundamentals of physical processes. This paper describes the challenges facing D2AM and the CeMS program goals to meet them.

Abstract:
This report is a literature review of several non-metallic material systems often used as alter-natives to steel pipelines. The pipeline systems reviewed are high density polyethylene (HDPE), fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), flexible composite and thermoplastic liners. This report is not intended to be a detailed guide or design manual on the use of the referenced materials for pipeline applications, rather an overall evaluation on the current state of these systems. Significant industry literature and documentation already exists on the design, manufacturing, installation, and operation of these pipelines. This information currently resides in pipe manufacturer's manuals and various industry standards and guides published by organizations such as ASTM International (ASTM), American Petroleum Institute (API) American Water Works Association (AWWA), and International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In Canada, the oil and gas industry pipeline code, CSA Z662-2015 (Canadian Standards Association, 2015). Users should frequently consult the manufacturers of the pipe products in use or under consideration for use for clarification and suggestions regarding the best practices, considerations and applications of the materials in question. In addition, pipeline operators should be aware of the applicable regulatory requirements in the jurisdictions they are operating within.
