Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to apply a framework for value stream mapping (VSM) integrated with fuzzy quality function deployment (QFD) for enabling scientific prioritization of improvement proposals to improve leanness. Design/methodology/approach – The literature was reviewed from the perspectives of VSM, QFD and fuzzy logic applications. The current state map was developed for the case component; fuzzy QFD was used for prioritizing improvement proposals and prioritized proposals were incorporated in the future state map. Findings – The approach enabled the scientific mapping of wastes with improvement proposals and thereby enabling systematic implementation of improvement proposals. The conducted pilot study resulted in 4 percent reduction in cycle time. As the lean implementation is a continuous process, furthermore improvements are expected in near future. Research limitations/implications – The study was conducted in an Indian camshaft manufacturing organization. The improvements in terms of leanness parameters were quantified. Practical implications – The findings determined from the study has practical relevance. Besides, managerial implications were also discussed. Originality/value – The study presented in this paper was conducted in a real time manufacturing environment. Hence the contributions of study are found to be valuable among academic and practicing communities.

Abstract:
Narrowband (NB) powerline communication (PLC) is extensively adopted by utilities for the communication in advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) systems. PLC technology needs to overcome channel disturbances present in certain grid segments. This study analyzes improvement proposals of the physical layer of the main narrowband PLC technologies approved by international communication organizations that are currently deployed in Europe: Powerline Intelligent Metering Evolution (PRIME) 1.3.6, PRIME 1.4, and G3-PLC, in order to improve PLC performance under channel disturbances. This thorough study is based on simulations carried out by an innovative ad hoc Virtual PLC Lab, developed by the authors, applied in replicable, fully-automated, and cost reduced test scenarios. The analysis is performed by applying standardized test methods and metrics, and by evaluating the influence of a set of representative channel disturbances defined by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) and selected noises generated by distributed energy resources (DER) in normal operation. PLC performance improvements in terms of equalizer curve fitting, error correction codes, and noisy subcarrier suppression mechanisms are presented. The performance gain due to each physical improvement proposal is accurately measured and compared under the same conditions in a replicable and automated test environment in order to evaluate the use of the proposals in the evolution of future PLC technologies.

Abstract:
Welding of elements, a heat exchanging component, is one of the most essential processes during the manufacturing of Tubel evaporators. Weld joints consists of fillet welds of thin tubes against a plate on one end, and on the other end against a thicker pipe with entry holes for the tubes. Since earlier a welding robot station has been invested to the production line to improve manufacturing quality and productivity. The results from the robot welding hasn’t been reliable enough though, and have led to additional operations to fix the problems that has occurred.This thesis project has the objective to investigate and analyse the problems occurred from earlier use of the robot station. The main challenges of the process have been identified and key factors that influence the welding performance are recognised to fully understand the problem. A list of improvement actions has then been proposed by first hand considering in terms of quality and productivity. The improvement actions are then evaluated by test welding.Materials used in the component and during test welding are either duplex or austenitic stainless steels, which weldability differs significantly between these. Related discontinuities and defects are similar for both material, but occurrences of these are higher when welding duplex steels.Improvement actions has included positioning of the electrode, parameter optimization, modification of robot equipment, base material improvements and welding sequence. Results of welding austenitic steels was considerably better and showed good results after the test welding, while welding of duplex steel likely needs design modification of the component to satisfy quality requirements and standards.
Svetsning av element, en värmeväxlande komponent, är en av de viktigaste processerna under tillverkningen av Tubel-indunstare. Svetsningen som förekommer är kälfogar av tunna tuber mot en plåt på ena änden, och på andra ändra änden mot ett tjockare rör med ingångshål för tuberna. Sedan tidigare har en svetsrobotstation investerats i produktionslinjen för att förbättra tillverkningen gällande kvalitet och produktivitet. Däremot har inte resultaten från denna varit tillfredsställande nog, som lett till extra arbete för att åtgärda de problem som förekommit.Detta examensarbete har syftet att undersöka och analysera de svetsrelaterade problem som funnits sedan den tidigare användningen av robotstationen. Huvudutmaningarna av processen har blivit identifierade och nyckelfaktorerna som påverkar svetsprestanda är undersökta för att så fullt som möjligt förstå sig på problemet. En lista av förbättringsförslag har tagits fram som i första hand betraktar förslag gällande kvalitet och produktivitet. Dessa förbättringsförslag har sedan utvärderats genom testsvetsning.Material som använts i komponenterna och under testsvetsningen har antingen varit duplex- eller austenitiskt rostfritt stål, vilkets svetsbarhet skiljer sig väsentligt från varandra. Relaterade diskontinuiteter och defekter är lika mellan båda dessa stål, men förekomsten är betydligt högre då duplexa stål svetsas.Förbättringsåtgärder har omfattat svetspositionering av elektroden, parameteroptimering, modifikation av robotutrustning, åtgärder av basmaterial och svetssekvenser. Testsvetsning av austenitiskt rostfritt har varit betydligt enklare och gett goda resultat, medans svetsning av duplexstål förmodligen behöver förbättrande åtgärder av komponentdesignen för att klara av de krav som kvalitetskrav och standarder ställer.

Abstract:
The component development within the product development projects at St. Jude Medical AB (SJM AB*) is considered to be inefficient and is in need for improvements. This master thesis was initiated by the Material Supply and Mechanical and Leads Development departments at SJM AB and it has been carried out between January and June, 2005. The purpose for this master thesis is to try to find what is negatively affecting the component development at SJM AB and what needs to be done in order to make it more efficient. The project consists of an extensive survey phase, where the problem areas negatively affecting the¨component development have been mapped. It started with a brainstorming session, which resulted in a substantial Ishikawa diagram, where many causes to the inefficient component development were defined. The major causes in the Ishikawa diagram were prioritized by employees within the product development projects, in order to receive information about which of these causes that were considered to be the largest bottlenecks. In order to visualize the current flow in the component development and to map the problem areas in these flows, workshops were held with three different product development projects. The results from the Ishikawa diagram and the reflections from the workshops were analyzed and they resulted in the continuous work for the remaining time of the project. The continuous work was decided to include the two problem areas; the Internal Component Management and the Suppliers. The results delivered by this project are an extensive survey of the problem areas, which negatively affect the component development, a list of improvement proposals for the internal component management and a checklist, which is to be used as an aid when reviewing the design material before

Abstract:
Summary Objective - The objective of this research study is to develop improvement proposals for an ordering handling system of uncontrolled packaging materials. By analysing data from related products in combination with observations and interviews the following research questions were answered to reach the purpose of the study: How can reordering points and inventory handling of uncontrolled packaging materials be structured? What would be the advantage of implement and plan uncontrolled packaging materials in an ERP system? Method - By studying a business phenomenon without firstly determine a theoretical background, the approach of this report has been through inductive research. By first observing the problem and connecting it to related theories the problem could be analysed and processed according to a theoretical approach. Results - The findings of the study show that data of uncontrolled materials can be derived through the connection of relevant products by using a breakdown structure. By this approach data and forecasts of related products could be summarized and used as a calculation basis for a reordering point system. The advantages of implementing reordering points of uncontrolled materials into an ERP system resulted in a reduction of non-value adding activities, reduction of maximal inventory, reduced tied-up capital, and to a controlled ordering handling. Implications - To further the study area of uncontrolled materials the researchers suggest that studies within other areas than packaging material is examined with a similar approach. Parts of the study, such as the combined demand and productmapping, could be applied in projects with more complex structures to explore the limitations of the method. This would increase the knowledge base on how to structure and control materials that do not follow any system. Furthermore, the scope of the report has been to focus on high volume packaging materials and therefore it would be interesting to see the approach applied to low volume products or materials. Restrictions - As data of this study is created by connection of related products it entails that similar circumstances exist if the project is to be replicated. Furthermore, the study is solely focused on the inventory department which could be a delimitation. Charts and data illustrations – In the report charts and data are manipulated according to the confidentiality agreement with the case company. The provided examples illustrate the relation between different factors although does not reveal any true data derived from the case company.

Abstract:
Purpose: Today the amount of Eco labelled multi-family houses are increasing. The Nordic Swan is a well-known certification that has grown a lot when it’s comes to certifying multi-family houses in Sweden. Unlike other well-known ecolabels there are not many studies done on the Nordic Swan. By studying the certification, and its establishment, in two large projects the goal of this study is to pinpoint weaknesses in the process of attaining the Nordic Swan and then make improvement proposals.Method: In order to provide improvement proposals, a qualitative study was chosen. A study of literature and a document analysis is the foundation of the study by taking theoretical aspects into account, within the Nordic Swan and multi-family housing. The chosen qualitative method is also based on semi structured interviews. The interview respondents were selected as: two production supervisors, a site manager, a quality and environmental coordinator, a project manager and a project developer. All respondents are working daily with the projects, characterized by the Nordic Swan. The different persons were chosen to obtain a high validity of the study. To further increase the validity and its reliability, respondents were given back the empirical data so that they could make further comments and revisions. Reliability was assured by providing well-designed questions.Findings: The goal refers to improvements with the certification, propelling to new knowledge, within the area of the subject. The empirical investigation shows recurring problems with the product database within the certification, seen from the respondent’s experiences of working with the Nordic Swan in projects. They’ve informed about challenges that comes with respective working process. The certification is solid and gives a qualitative product, but has a time-consuming learning process. Overall, the respondent’s focused on the way of working with the ecolabel and the organisations way of managing the product database, both for an older and a new version.The improvement proposals that results from an analyzation of interviews concerns the communication between the Nordic Swan and its customers, how the Nordic Swan’s product database can improve when future versions releases and how the ecolabel could accomplish a greater eco-impact to the projects by promoting “green innovations”.Limitations: The study is limited to the application of the Nordic Swan in multi-family housing in two large projects. As the guidelines in the process do not differ between companies, the result can be considered general. Retrieving information from even more companies on the other hand could have resulted in a more accurate overall result.Implications: The drawn conclusion from the thesis is that the result creates opportunities for improving the certification process. It can also be used to get more companies to use the Nordic Swan. It provides an opportunity for both companies and individuals to farm an understanding regarding the certification.

Abstract This chapter reports on the third co-creation project described in this book. The project was managed by two departments of Zaragoza city council: the Department of Elderly Care and the Technical Office of Participation, Transparency and Open Government. Several activities aiming to improve the lives older citizens have been conducted by the city administration since Zaragoza joined the Global Network of Age-Friendly Cities and Communities. In a consultation process, older citizens had expressed a demand for safe and well-equipped outdoor spaces. Thus, the broad problem focus of this co-creation project was on the improvement of an age-friendly city infrastructure. The co-creation project covered six walks in three different districts. In each district, groups of six to eight older residents defined two relevant routes and collected information (problems and improvements) about them. The data was integrated in a collaborative digital map provided by the city’s Technical Office. The result of the project is an enhanced map service, which allows (older) citizens to report problems in the public (road) infrastructure and/or propose improvements. Their suggestions for improvements enter a list of citizen proposals for a participatory budgeting process.

Abstract:
Visual grounding aims to localize an object in an image referred to by a textual query phrase. Various visual grounding approaches have been proposed, and the problem can be modularized into a general framework: proposal generation, multi-modal feature representation, and proposal ranking. Of these three modules, most existing approaches focus on the latter two, with the importance of proposal generation generally neglected. In this paper, we rethink the problem of what properties make a good proposal generator. We introduce the diversity and discrimination simultaneously when generating proposals, and in doing so propose Diversified and Discriminative Proposal Networks model (DDPN). Based on the proposals generated by DDPN, we propose a high performance baseline model for visual grounding and evaluate it on four benchmark datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that our model delivers significant improvements on all the tested data-sets (e.g., 18.8% improvement on ReferItGame and 8.2% improvement on Flickr30k Entities over the existing state-of-the-arts respectively).

Abstract:
This master thesis explores the challenges for waste management business models in the field of textiles regarding the requirements of the circular economy, as well as improvement potentials in the current framework conditions. It is concerned with the research question: "Is it advisable to change the frame-work conditions at meso or macro level, with regard to business models for waste management companies in the textile sector that are oriented towards the requirements of the circular economy, and - if so - in what way?” The approach of the study is based on the delta analysis of the e Society for Institutional Analysis at the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. It compares the target state of the normative requirements with the actual state of the textile and waste management framework conditions and attempts to identify the gaps (the delta). Based on the delta, it develops approaches that are intended to help reduce the gaps. The thesis develops three business models for the target year 2025 in different areas: an exchange platform for sorters, recyclers and designers, an automatic sorting plant and a plant for fibre-to-fibre recycling of mixed materials. It is becoming clear that these business models cannot meet the target requirements for the circular economy. The analysis identifies the remaining gaps in the framework conditions as the main problem. For example, insufficient innovation impulses and the lack of competitiveness of secondary raw materials inhibit the actors from applying and using new technologies and business models. Restricted access to knowledge and information, as well as a lack of transparency between the actors, also prove to be problematic. In order to answer the research question, the study recommends altering the framework conditions at meso and macro level. It proposes a platform for cooperation between designers, the introduction of a material declaration system and an eco-design guideline for textiles as possible development options. In addition, this work offers a matrix of criteria to help the actors test and improve their new waste management business models regarding their suitability for the circular economy. The analysis is carried out from an outsider's perspective on the entire textile industry. It therefore cannot cover and deal with all aspects and individual circumstances of each player in detail. The necessary changes in the framework conditions that have been identified can therefore be used as a basis for further investigations.
