Abstract:
In the age of knowledge-based economies, open innovation has increasing importance. This study aimed to explore the architectural design approaches that can revitalize innovation activities in the era of knowledge-based economies. This paper investigated global case research campuses, manufacturing systems, and innovation districts where architectural design supports innovation activities. This study developed a research framework of architectural design for innovation and applied it in the selected case studies to generate insights. First, the research campuses selected as case studies included Panopticon, DGIST Education and Research Campuses, and Apple Park. Second, the open innovation of manufacturing system architecture was analyzed through the case studies of the Ford Motor Company, Toyota Motor Corporation, and Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. Third, this paper studied the clustered open innovation architectures of Macquarie Park, One North, and Strijp-S Innovation Districts. The findings revealed how tacit knowledge motivates open innovation through the design of manufacturing systems, research campuses, and innovation districts through real examples and mathematical or concept model building.

Abstract:
The content of traditional annual reports for publicly owned corporations is undergoing significant change. Whether in the traditional printed form, or increasingly, via web-based formats, annual reports are moving beyond the mere reporting of the fiscal year’s financial results. Corporate annual reports are beginning to include supplemental disclosures on the corporation’s labor and supplier activities environmental activities, governance, social responsibility and, most recently, sustainability. This trend has been observed more frequently for corporations based outside of the United States, though a small number of U.S corporations have embraced these concepts as well. Such supplemental disclosures are made not only to its shareholders, but also to individuals, groups and other entities that have a direct stake (i.e. stakeholders) in the corporation’s activities, successes and/or other matters at hand. This paper looks at the development of the stakeholder model and some of groups involved in the expansion of annual reports to include their concerns. Looking back historically, the paper examines early examples of stakeholder reporting from 20th Century annual reports of Ford Motor Company and by certain publicly owned U.S. railroads. Lastly, the paper provides evidence of an earlier example of stakeholder reporting then that previously identified in the literature.

Abstract:
The use of ergonomic principles in the design of automobile assembly and manufacturing operations has become an important part of a comprehensive health and safety process as well as an integral part of the engineering systems. Ford Motor Company has developed an ergonomics process to manage issues related to injury and illness (e.g., musculoskeletal diseases) and to ensure the appropriate use of human resources on the plant floor. The ergonomics program uses joint labor and management teams to identify and evaluate jobs and develop and implement solutions. This paper summarizes the Ford Motor Company efforts in implementing and maintaining the program. Key strategies are outlined that provide important links to internal organizational units that are critical to fully utilize the ergonomics process. In addition, the paper outlines differences between proactive and reactive efforts and shows the importance of using the information generated by the initiatives for process improvement.

Mestrado em Finanças
A Ford Motor Company é uma fabricante de automóveis Americana e uma das maiores empresas do setor em termos de receita, com 155,9 mil milhões de dólares em 2019. O objetivo deste relatório é avaliar a Ford, seguindo o formato recomendado pelo CFA Institute. A escolha da Ford está diretamente relacionada com minha paixão pela indústria automóvel e com a minha curiosidade pela cultura automobilística americana. Este relatório foi elaborado com base em informações disponíveis publicamente até 31 de julho de 2020, pelo que não foram consideradas quaisquer informações disponíveis publicamente após essa data. A indústria automóvel está a ser afetada pela pandemia e o seu futuro ainda é bastante incerto, o que vem trazer ainda mais risco a uma indústria que se encontra em grande mudança, na direção dos veículos elétricos. Para avaliar a Ford, um modelo DCF foi usado, baseado no método "WACC". A avaliação levou a um Preço Alvo de 6.67$ no final de 2020, um potencial ganho de 0,98% em relação ao preço de fecho a 31 de Julho de 2020 de 6,61$. Os valores mencionados levam a uma recomendação de Reduzir a posição, tendo em conta que o risco é considerado elevado.
Ford Motor Company is an American automotive manufacturer and one of the largest companies in the industry in terms of revenues, with 155.9B$ in 2019. The aim of this research report is to value Ford, following the format recommended by the CFA Institute. The choice of Ford was directly related with my passion for the automotive industry and my curiosity towards the American car culture.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, System Design & Management Program, 2000.
Includes bibliographical references (leaves 78-80).
This thesis aims at developing a practical method to adjust product development metrics, which will enable effective management of the product development (PD) process. A set of good metrics is crucial to the success of a product, as metrics direct the development process by driving the actions and decisions of the PD team members which in turn define the product. Emphasizing or "weighting" certain metrics more than others can make the difference between success and failure. Through empirical exploration of metrics we seek to determine the weights, and the impact of different metrics on product success. Unlike its use in the engineering literature, the management use of the term "metric" includes both quantitative and qualitative measures which the PD team members can influence through their efforts. The theory used to determine the correct weight of a metric has its roots in the principles of Agency Theory and has been developed by "engineering" the theory to obtain two key parameters which define the weight of a metric. These two parameters are "leverage" and "risk discount factor" (RDF). Leverage is the amount by which a metric can impact the profitability of a product and RDF takes into account the inherent risk averse nature of the PD team members that influence their decisions. In order to evaluate the PD metrics and their weights within a firm, data was collected for a set of metrics across 17 programs at Ford Motor Company. The values for each metric were assigned based on information obtained through program documentation and interviews with multiple team members across various functions within the organization. Different success measures were collected and the impact and leverage of each metric was determined through empirical exploration of the various relationships. The key findings to date include: * Cronbach's Alpha for metrics regrouped using factor analysis average 0.7 demonstrating internal reliability. * Customer satisfaction correlates significantly with the rigor of the PD process, and internal coordination and communication between the core team and the other members of the value chain. * Time to market shows consistent correlation with profit and profit residuals. " The calculated weights suggest higher emphasis on capturing manufacturing need and using robust design practices, technology, and differentiation will increase profitability. " The measured RDF does not change the relative weightings of the metrics as obtained through the leverage calculation.

Abstract:
The functions of modern organizations continually pressure the natural environment. Although the concept of sustainability has been widely accepted in the business world, environmental problems, rather than disappearing, still linger and even deteriorate. The problems reside in the organization-natural environment relationship. Understanding this relationship is key for addressing contemporary environmental problems. This dissertation is a study of the organization-natural environment relationship. Specially, the dissertation focuses on the case of Ford Motor Company (FMC), and through a study on FMC's communication of sustainability, the dissertation analyzes, defines, evaluates, and attempts to theorize the organization-natural environment relationship. The dissertation reviews organizational theories as well as other theories within the communication studies discipline pertaining to the organization-natural environment relationship. Why the topic of natural environment has been downplayed in communication studies literature is discussed, and the dissertation also reviews emerging studies on the organization-environment relationship from the perspective of various sub-disciplines of communication studies, namely, environmental communication, business communication, and public relations. The review of literature revealed a lack of theorizing of the organization-natural environment relationship, although specific environmental issues, along with their social context, are examined in the reviewed studies. The theoretical framework for the dissertation is based in organizational communication theory; therefore, the development of organizational communication theory is reviewed, and a critical approach of organizational communication was selected as the theoretical position of this dissertation. Following previous research on the organization-natural environment relationship, the dissertation adopts rhetorical criticism, and particularly uses cluster analysis/criticism as the research method. The use of cluster analysis helps to explain the meanings of FMC's discourse of sustainability and to further define, analyze, evaluate, and theorize the company's relationship to the natural environment. To achieve the goal, an overarching research question was proposed: How is the FMC-natural environment relationship reflected and constituted in FMC's discourse on sustainability? And to answer the overarching question, five detailed research questions were posed. RQ1: What are the key terms and clusters that the FMC uses on sustainability? RQ2: How does the FMC use these terms and clusters in relation to sustainability? RQ3: Does the FMC's discourse on sustainability seem reactive or proactive? RQ4: What are the implications of those meanings for the company's relationship with the natural environment? RQ5: How can we theorize this relationship within organizational communication? Data collected were primarily from FMC's annual sustainability reports over the 10 years examined (2002/03 - 2012/13). Data also comprised four published interview reports on the chairman, Bill Ford, one published commentary from Bill Ford, three documentary films on Ford, and a video clip of Ford's director of sustainability John Viera's discussion on sustainability. The research findings focused on the selection of key terms and their clusters as well as on the explanation of the relationship between key terms and their clusters. Seven key terms, namely, sustainability, environment, technology, commitment, fuel, emission, and climate change, were identified from the analyzed texts. Clusters were charted, and were assigned to classified themes, like "business," "profitability," "market," "environment," "efficiency," and "importance." Analysis of the relationship between key terms and their clusters showed that the key terms have different layers of meanings, ranging in a continuum from FMC's business to its environmental sustainability, although more clusters, both in intensity and frequency, were themed toward the company's business, indicating the company's heavier emphasis on its business rather than on environmental sustainability. The key terms and their clusters, therefore, confirmed the meanings of sustainability reviewed in the literature. The meanings are always ambiguous, complex, vague, and flexible, and are mixed with connotations between FMC's business growth and environmental concerns. The company was proactive in terms of addressing the environmental issues because the company emphasized internal control and plans rather than just passively reacting to environmental problems. In terms of the company's relationship with the natural environment, cluster analysis showed a rather slippery definition. The relationship described in the sustainability lacks clarity, but is layered in different meanings. Specifically, three metaphors, relationship as a responsibility, relationship as an opportunity, and relationship as a journey, were proposed to describe the relationship. The dissertation concluded that the two-layer meaning of sustainability, showing a co-existing relationship between the two layers of environmental sustainability and business profitability, could enrich a better understanding of the organization-natural environment relationship. An organizational communication theory of sustainability, based on the two-layer framework and developed from critical organizational communication theories, is proposed, and future research can study how the interactions and conflicts of two-layered meanings between environmental sustainability and business profitability constituted in the discourse of different organization could further such a theory.

Abstract:
Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1991.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 267-273).
The growth and decline of manufacturing industries in the past century and the industrial landscape that this activity has produced has had profound physical, environmental, social and economic impact on the communities of which they are an integral part. Throughout the past century, industry has dominated the man-made environment in tenns of its size, frequency of occurrence and highly prominent position in the community. In America this is particularly true, as the history of urban industrialism has shaped our nation and the character of our urban environment over the last one hundred years. Because industrial sites have played a significant role in the physical form, social composition and environmental-both natural and man-made character of American communities - their obsolescence, whether creating a change in function or eliminating the function entirely, leaves a tremendous void, both physically and economically. The obsolete industrial landscape,whether abandoned or underutilized, leaves the public and private sectors, as well as the community with the task of "reconstructing"-the reintegration of large scale environments through reuse and reprogramming-the site, architecture and infrastructure that is left as obsolete. Reconstruction of obsolete or redundant industrial sites occurs in various ways, though efforts are generally of a fairly singular focus, with the private sector making decisions based largely on market and financial considerations. While the private sector has made some effort to retrofit existing facilities with new technology and processes, the conventional approach has been to leave them behind and start fresh. Existing infrastructure, environmental quality and employee relations are generally deemed too difficult to retrofit, and so new plants are developed on green fields elsewhere, while older facilities are abandoned, demolished or sold to other parties for redevelopment. Reuse strategies have focused on the subdivision of older industrial structures to accommodate incubator industries which require less square footage than traditional heavy industries. While examples of this conventional redevelopment approach dominate in the United States, a multidisciplinary, participatory approach has been used in both European countries and the United States. Over the last decade, increased interest in the industrial landscape and its reconstruction has spawned numerous efforts world wide. In Italy and France, private sector finns such as Fiat, Pirelli, and Schlumberger have joined forces with the public sector in order to develop planning and design directions for important pieces of the urban landscape. Programs range from institutional and mixed use development to industrial and commercial reuse. In the United States, planning efforts at the federal, state and local levels have produced various participatory approaches. In recent years, the Department of the Interior through the National Park Service, has developed and implemented a program of "heritage areas", focused on the country's transportation and industrial heritage. The objectives of the cultural development strategy are to preserve industrial heritage while catalyzing economic development in the surrounding community. A candidate for multidisciplinary reconstruction planning is the Ford Rouge Complex in Dearborn, Michigan. The Rouge Complex has served for its 75 years as the center piece of the regional automotive economy in Southeastern Michigan and the automotive manufacturing in the country as a whole. From its modest beginnings on remote farm and marshland in 1917, Henry Ford I and Albert Kahn's joint vision for the Rouge quickly eclipsed their revolutionary Highland Park facility, inherited its assembly line and grew to become the largest manufacturing complex in the world. Once, the self proclaimed "industrial city" was admired, imitated, portrayed and visited by industrialists, artists and designers and tourists from every comer of the world. Today, the complex is in a state of transition and uncertainty about the future. Poised for reconstruction, it is now at the center of an economy which has been wholly dependent on the cyclical nature of the automotive industry and tied to its convulsions, relocations and downsizing. The Rouge is also in the midst of the region's economic and social strife Based on these existing conditions, can a reconstruction approach for the site create new economic and social value? If a strategy which embraces a multidimensional notion of value, emphasizing "information value", is employed, the answer may be in the affirmative. Considered in this way, the Rouge represents a major redevelopment opportunity. Nowhere is there a more potent site for such a redevelopment; nowhere in the region does the confluence of these three notions of value occur in a more powerful way. The infrastructure that exists there could not be cost effectively reproduced today. There is no other location in the region which is better served by modal options or better positioned in relation to such options. Most importantly, there are few other sites in the world which are so charged with historic and cultural meaning which is of significance at a local, national and international level, and where the juxtaposition of 20th and 21st century industrial landscape and technology meet. The thesis concludes with a recommended scenario for the reconstruction of the Rouge, focusing on a master planning approach and recommended development program which draw from examples of industrial reconstruction precedents in the the European Community and the United States. The recommended scenario advocates a multidisciplinary, participatory master planning approach. The process identifies different notions of "value" that are inherent in the Rouge. The development concept consists of four development components, each embracing different notions of value, all of which hold economic potential: infrastructure value, which focuses on the value of the buildings and infrastructure to the market, location value, which focuses on the sites context, adjacencies and linkages; and the information value, which focuses on the symbolic, historic and cultural meaning of the site. In approaching the site with this combination, the results are enhanced economic value and a physical result which addresses the concerns and issues of the stakeholders in the process-the company, the union and the community.

Abstract:
This paper describes the Design, Engineering, Planning and Implementation activities that led up to an advanced, state of the art, optimum and economical solution for expanding an existing system to handle an increase of crude oil throughput from 80 to 117 mta metric tons per year (2.53 t/s to 3.71 t/s). The growing demand and reduced net imports of products will increase Western European crude oil requirements to 11 million b/d (barrel per day) equivalent to 20.24 m3/s by year 2000. SUMED (gulf of SUez - MEDiterranean) the Arab Petroleum Pipelines Company has historically secured about 40% of the market for middle Eastern crude oil movements to Europe. Given these market shares on incremental volume SUMED should achieve its maximum design throughput of 117 mta by year 2000. The SUMED pipelines system which is owned and operated by an Arab company having EGYPT, SAUDI ARABIA, KUWAIT, EMIRATES AND QATAR as share holders has been in operation since 1977. An expansion project has started to increase the throughput capacity of the system from 80 to 117 mta. The project completion is expected by mid 1994 with a total expenditure of 120 million dollars. This paper reviews the evaluation and selection of various electric motor and gas turbines for the main pumping station addition for this pipeline expansion.

Abstract:
In the past decade, electric motors have become a challenging alternative to gas turbines to drive centrifugal compressors [1] [7], mainly because of the progress of Variable Frequency Drives main components allowing to drive high power motors. Low Electricity prices (mainly in France) and environmental concerns have contributed to spread that technology across Europe. As flexibility needs and environmental constraints will grow in the gas transmission business, the option to drive the centrifugal compressors with an electric motor will be taken into consideration more and more often either for technical, regulatory or economic reasons in future compressor station projects [2]. GRTgaz, the main gas transmission company in France, decided in the early 2000’s to enlarge and renew its compressor fleet (42 units to be installed between 2004 and 2014 in a 5 to 14 MW power range). GRTgaz is taking that option into account for each of these projects considering the following criteria, related to 3 main considerations: Operational needs: • Availability, reliability • Rangeability needs • Flexibility needs • Type of compressor station (head, peak, network core) • Access to the electrical grid • Available space for the site • … Environmental constraints: • Environmental Footprint • Air emissions • Noise • … The full possession cost for a 30-year period: • Investment cost • Energy cost • Maintenance cost • CO2 quota prices This paper is proposing to develop how these criteria are assessed, what hypotheses are made to help the decision and to share GRTgaz feedback on the projects that have already been completed. Some examples will be presented.

Abstract:
The Ford Motor Company Human Body Finite Element Model (FHBM) was validated against rib dynamic tension and 3-point bending tests. The stress-strain and moment-strain data from the tension and bending simulations respectively were compared with human rib specimen test data. The model used represented a 50th percentile adult male. It was used to compare chest deflection and chest acceleration as thoracic injury indicator in blunt impact and belted occupants in front sled impact simulations. A 150 mm diameter of 23.4 kg impactor was used in the blunt impact simulations with impact speeds of 2, 4, and 8 m/s. In the Front sled impact simulations, single-step acceleration pulses with peaks of 10, 20, and 30 g were used. The occupants were restrained by 3-point belt system, however neither pretensioner nor shoulder belt force limiter were used. The external force, head acceleration, chest deflection, chest acceleration, and the maximum values of Von Mises stress and plastic strain were the model outputs. The results showed that the external contact force, head acceleration, chest deflection, and chest acceleration in the blunt impact simulations varied between 1.5–7 kN, 5–28 g, 18–80 mm, and 8–40 g respectively. The same responses varied between 7–24 kN, 13–40 g, 15–50 mm, and 16–46 g respectively in the front sled impact simulations. The maximum Von Mises stress and plastic strain were 50–127 MPa, and 0.04–2% respectively in the blunt impact simulations and 72–134 MPa, and 0.13–3% respectively in the sled impact simulations.

Abstract:
The US NRC’s post-Fukushima taskforce recommend extending the coping time up to at least 72 hours. In PWRs, the reactor coolant pump (RCP), and more particularly the shaft seal system located between the motor and the impeller, are directly impacted by these recommendations [AREVA, 2012]. Considering the importance of station black out (SBO) condition, seal performance of RCP shaft seal assembly shall be verified especially under an extended SBO condition. As a final stage of the localization program of the RCP, KAERI performed a seal LOCA test to verify seal leakage characteristics and to produce qualified experimental data for a plant safety analysis during the extended SBO condition. The seal verification test was performed using the localized seal assembly, fabricated by DOOSAN Heavy Industries & Construction Company of Korea, along with the commercial APR1400’s RCP for the Shin-Kori unit-5 nuclear plant to simulate an actual condition of the commercial nuclear power plant. Test condition was derived from a series of safety analysis for the APR1400 plant which reflected the FLEX procedure, and it consisted of three major sub-conditions such as high-pressure and high-temperature condition, saturated condition, and low-pressure and low-temperature condition. The major concerning point of the test is to measure a seal leakage flow rate during the test period. Total leakage amount and maximum leakage flow rate through the localized shaft seal assembly during the whole period of the test are in comparatively smaller ranges than the conventional input values used for a safety analysis of APR1400.
