Abstract:
Logistics and transport systems are complex systems for which sustainable innovations are urgently needed. Serious games are an acknowledged tool for training, learning, and decision making, as well as for helping to introduce innovative concepts for complex systems. Technological innovations for the transport domain that can improve sustainability are usually heavily dependent on the collaboration among actors. A simulation gaming approach can help these actors in understanding the challenges involved, and in finding solutions in a playful, interactive way. Our research approach includes a thorough literature review on games for innovation and collaboration in transport networks, and the development of two dedicated simulation games addressing sustainability innovations for the Port of Rotterdam, the largest seaport in Europe and one of the largest in the world. The two innovation cases are truck platooning and multi-sided digital platforms for barge transportation, both improving the sustainability of hinterland transportation. The games serve as instruments to reveal interactions and tensions among actors, contribute to the interpretation of their behavior, and eventually help all parties to reach a better understanding on how innovation adoption can be fostered, using an innovation ecosystem perspective. We are convinced that serious gaming, by providing a better understanding of the innovation process, will help the implementation of sustainability innovations in complex systems.

Abstract:
The primary objective of this study is to reveal macro-level knowledge to aid the optimization, evaluation, and strategic planning of technological innovation abandonment. This research uses an exploratory data analysis (EDA) approach to extract directional and associative patterns (macro-level knowledge) to assess technological innovation abandonment optimization. Deterministic and stochastic simulations are employed to reveal the impact of three factors on abandonment optimization, namely, a technological innovation’s diffusion rate, a technological innovation’s probability of achieving a given diffusion rate, and the point of abandonment. The patterns and insights revealed through the graphical examination of the simulation provide associative and directional knowledge to assess the abandonment optimization of technological innovation. These revealed patterns and insights enable decision-makers to develop an abandonment assessment framework for optimizing, evaluating, and proactively planning abandonment at the macro level.

Abstract:
Simulation-based learning in medicine has gained substantial importance. It is complementary to often limited clinical practice, and helps interconnect theoretical knowledge with practical training. Simulations are implicated in clinical subjects, but based on recent understanding, simulation can also be used in preclinical subjects, where it can support presented tasks. Simulation technology was used for elective practical sessions in a pathophysiology course, with both measurable outcomes and students’ feedback evaluated. This study was conducted in Slovakia with volunteers (n = 22), who were 3rd-year students of General Medicine (simulation group), paired with classmates in traditional seminars (control group; n = 22) with the same achievement grades. The control group had completed traditional seminars, whereas the simulation group had completed simulation-based seminars in cardiovascular pathophysiology. A standardized student feedback survey, visual analogue scale, and credit tests for regular pathophysiology were used to perform the analysis. Subjective feedback suggested positive outcomes in approximately 80% of students. An objective assessment showed that simulation-based seminars did not increase the theoretical knowledge as documented by 1st credit test (simulation vs control; 42 ± 6 vs 41 ± 4; p > 0.05), but rather their approach to clinical application of obtained information and motivation to study.

Abstract:

Mobile communication markets are known for frequent innovations with potentially high network effects. The conceptual work in economics and innovation studies show how the growth pattern for innovations in such markets could vary depending on the competition and market characteristics. However, the empirical research within this field is limited. This thesis introduces a computer simulation model for analyzing the development, adoption and diffusion of innovations in a mobile market. The model is based on Agent-Based Computational Economics (ACE), and makes use of behavioral theory of firms, economics, and sociology, to leverage the theoretical understating of the diffusion of innovations. The results of the simulation runs on the developed simulation software show that the topologies of social networks have strong effects on diffusion. However, it is also found that in situations where several competing companies launch their innovations sequentially, a winner-takes-all outcome is the most likely when the actors are completely rational. Further, when the information in the market is imperfect, the topology of social networks can create equilibria where the market is shared between several providers. Finally, the variance in consumer characteristics affects both the rate and the outcome of innovation diffusion. The thesis reaffirms that computer simulation is an effective way to combine the sociological and economic theories of innovation diffusion. The results show that there is still a need for more research on the field to better understand why some innovations fail, while other succeed and becomes accepted in the market. The outcome of an innovation launch is shown to be affected by several factors, including timing, network structure, market noise, and consumer characteristics. By using the simulation model to study the influence of such factors in a specific market, service providers may improve their competitive power.

This thesis explores the use of genetic programming as a tool in the system design and innovation process. Digital circuits are used as a proxy for complex technological designs. Circuit construction is simulated through a computer algorithm which assembles circuit designs in an attempt to reach specified design goals. Complex designs can be obtained by repeatedly combining simpler components, often called building blocks, which were created earlier in the algorithm's progression. This process is arguably a reflection of the traditional development path of systems engineering and technological innovation. The choice of algorithm used to guide this process is crucial. This thesis considers two general types of algorithms-a blind random search method, and a genetic programming search method-with variations applied to each. The research focused on comparing these algorithms in regard to: 1) the successful creation of multiple complex designs; 2) resources utilized in achieving a design of a given complexity; and 3) the inferred time dependence of technological improvement resulting from the process. Also of interest was whether these algorithms would exhibit exponential rates of improvement of the virtual technologies being created, as is seen in real-world innovation. The starting point was the hypothesis that the genetic programming approach might be superior to the random search method. The results found however that the genetic programming algorithm did not outperform the blind random search algorithm, and in fact failed to produce the desired circuit design goals. This unexpected outcome is believed to result from the structure of the circuit design process, and from certain shortcomings in the genetic programming algorithm used. This work also examines the relationship of issues and considerations (such as cost, complexity, performance, and efficiency) faced in these virtual design realms to managerial strategy and how insights from these experiments might be applied to real-world engineering and design challenges. Algorithmic simulation approaches, including genetic programming, are found to be powerful tools, having demonstrated impressive performance in bounded domains. However, their utility to systems engineering processes remains unproven. Therefore, use of these algorithmic tools and their integration into the human creative process is discussed as a challenge and an area needing further research.

Abstract:
Sound Quality engineering (SQE) is a discipline that should be embedded within Noise Vibration and Harshness (NVH) engineering. Its purpose is to tailor and enhance a vehicle’s sound in order for it to meet and / or exceed the customers’ expectations of the car and of the brand. NVH engineers need to use the opinions of customers, key decision makers in the organisation and those of their colleagues to set objective NVH targets for new vehicles. Their opinions are captured through jury evaluations. Interactive simulation is a new approach to presenting sounds to a jury. It enables assessors to evaluate existing and concept cars generated in real time and before the manufacture of physical prototypes. This document summarises the research carried out for the EngD research programme. Its aim was to develop methodological approaches for setting up evaluations using interactive simulation, optimise its data capture and analysis capabilities and provide insight, to NVH engineers, into how assessors evaluate sound quality. The first stage of the research involved benchmarking how the interactive simulation tool was being used by its developers, and how NVH targets are set within an OEM. This provided the foundation upon which to build the new methodology. The benchmark was compared against methodological approaches used in experimental psychology and in other sensory perception practices. This identified that principles for the design of evaluations had not been considered and appropriate statistical analysis techniques were not being implemented. Therefore it was not possible to ensure if the differences observed in the results were significant or not. It also became apparent that as each assessor was free to drive vehicles however they wished, the NVH engineers would not be able to link the assessor’s subjective impressions with the acoustical stimuli used to form an opinion. This was due to the lack of observational methods that could be applied. In addition, the use of this form of interactivity was novel compared to the approaches available before the introduction of the simulation. Therefore it was not yet understood how it could influence the outcome of the evaluations. An iterative approach was adopted to develop both tools and methods. Following the benchmarking stages, experimental design principles were implemented and a structured briefing method was formulated for the first time. These contributed to the overall methodologies and were also used to ensure the studies conducted as part of this research programme were free from experimental biases. This stage was followed by identifying a statistical analysis framework which can be used to study the assessors’ subjective impressions. These contributions enable the NVH engineer to understand if the differences observed between sounds are significant or not. The next phase was to understand how to best capture subjective opinions. Recommendations for this were based on the purpose of the evaluation. For the benchmarking stages of the NVH target setting process, many cars are often evaluated and therefore the duration of the evaluation can be a concern. However, the desired level of accuracy of the results is not as high as it is for the validations stages, upon which key engineering decisions are based, and also fewer cars are evaluated. Taken together it was possible to recommend the use of scaled interfaces for the benchmarking stages and the paired comparison method for the validation stages. The former takes less time to complete than the latter, which is however more accurate. The data capture capabilities were further enhanced through the development of a driver observation module; this enabled the assessor’s assessment strategies to be recorded. The data collected provided insight into how assessors drove with the aid of new visualisation and analysis techniques developed. Given the availability of these new methods and tools it was then possible to use the simulator to observe the influence of interactivity on the outcome of the evaluation. This demonstrated that assessment strategies can vary depending on the question asked to the assessor. The study indicated that assessors associated the refinement character of a car with driving conditions other than those presented to them in traditional evaluations. Through the research and developments of this EngD programme, NVH engineers can now observe with confidence if differences between sounds are significant and they can see and hear how the assessor made decisions. Therefore they can now link subjective impressions formed with the stimuli evaluated by the assessor, hence an effective way of using the simulator has been proposed.

Abstract:
Many specific methods and tools have been developed to deal with sustainability problems. However, without a unifying theory it is unclear how these relate to each other and how they can be used strategically. A Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) is being developed to cover this need for clarity and structure. It includes backcasting from a principled definition of sustainability as a key feature. The aim of this thesis is to study how this framework can guide the use and improvement of detailed methods and tools, in particular to support sustainable product innovation (SPI). First, a new strategic life-cycle management approach is presented, in which the selection of aspects to be considered are not based on typical down-stream impact categories, but on identified major violations of sustainability principles. Ideas of how this approach can inform various specific methods and tools are also presented, as a basis for an integrated “toolbox” for SPI. As part of such, a new “template” approach for sustainable product development (TSPD) is developed through a sustainability assessment case study of TVs. That study indicates that this approach can create a quick and strategically relevant overview of critical sustainability aspects of a product, as well as facilitate communication between top management, product developers and external stakeholders. Based on such an assessment, it is sometimes necessary to go deeper into details, including the use of specific engineering methods and tools. To facilitate a coordinated assessment of sustainability aspects and technical aspects, an introductory procedure for sustainability-driven design optimization is suggested trough a water jet cutting case study. Equally important, to get a breakthrough for SPI, it is essential to integrate sustainability aspects into the overall decision-making process at different levels in companies. An approach to assessing sustainability integration in strategic decision systems is therefore also developed through a case study involving several companies. Finally, the integration between the FSSD and general systems modeling and simulation (SMS) is discussed and tested in another water jet cutting case study. It is shown feasible to start with the FSSD to create lists of critical flows and practices, ideas of long term solutions and visions, and a first rough idea about prioritized early investments. After that, SMS can be applied to study the interrelationships between the listed items, in order to create more robust and refined analyses of the problems at hand, possible solutions and investment paths, while constantly coupling back to the sustainability principles and guidelines of the FSSD. This research shows that the combination of the FSSD with detailed methods and tools cohesively provides decision-makers with both a robust overview and, when needed, a more coordinated and effective detailed support. To utilize its full potential, this approach should now be integrated into decision processes, software and manuals for SPI.

Abstract:
In today’s competitive market, a company will not succeed unless they stand out in other ways than pure benefits with its products. This can be reached by in some way altering the process currently in place. One way, is by introducing process innovation. Advantages related to the adoption of process innovation has been found in literature, for example by increase competitiveness, increase productivity, and increase plant visibility. However, process innovation evokes uncertainty. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) models has in previous research been suggested as a tool to reduce uncertainty at manufacturing companies when they are undergoing changes. However, the study of change in process innovation setting has been largely ignored. By acknowledging this gap in current research, the aim of this study is to investigate whether the use of DES models are able to reduce uncertainties in process innovation. The study is guided by three research questions: 1. What are the characteristics of process innovation introduction in a production process context? 2. How is the production process at manufacturing companies affected by process innovation related uncertainties? 3. How can the usage of DES contribute to reduction of uncertainties during the introduction of process innovation at manufacturing companies? In order to answer these questions, a research methodology consisting of a literature review and a case study including the usage of DES were applied. In this thesis the case study is conducted at a manufacturing company, presented with the goal of making a modification in the production. This is done in an attempt to make it more environmental friendly while also establish a competitive edge over the rivals. To reach this, an implementation of a process innovation technology is under planning, but introducing something new creates numerous uncertainties. To be able to implement this process innovation, uncertainty reduction is crucial. By identify literature within the field, and compare with findings from interviews and workshops at the studied company, process innovation characteristics and how process innovation evokes uncertainties were identified. From the usage DES in this thesis, uncertainties were reduced, partly reduced and identified while some uncertainties remain unresolved. Moreover, the findings point to the creation of the simulation model working as a visualisation of the current production and the possible future, which generates a discussion platform for all stakeholders involved.
I den nuvarande konkurrenskraftiga marknaden har ett företag många utmaningar ifall de vill lyckas. Det räcker nämligen inte längre med att ha bra produkter utan de måste också förbättras på andra sätt. Ett sätt att uppnå detta på, är att genomföra förändringar i den nuvarande produktionen, en metod för detta är introducera en processinnovation på företaget. Under detta arbete har fördelarna relaterade till processinnovation upptäckts i befintlig litteratur, till exempel genom att ökad konkurrentskraftighet, produktivitet och synlighet för fabriken. Dessvärre framkallar implementeringen av en processinnovation osäkerheter. Diskret händelse simulering (DES) modeller har i tidigare forskning föreslagits som ett verktyg för at minska osäkerheter i tillverkningsföretag, medan de planerar att genomgår en förändring. Forskning om hur simulering hanterar fabriker som genomgår en processinnovation har i hög grad ignorerats. De här studien har för avsikt att undersöka just det området där nuvarande forskning brister, nämligen om ifall DES modeller kan minska osäkerheter i processinnovationer. Tre forskningsfrågor har tagits fram för att styra arbetet: 1. Vilka kännetecken har introduktionen av processinnovation i en produktionsprocess kontext? 2. Hur påverkas produktionsprocess hos tillverkande företag av de osäkerheter som processinnovation medför? 3. Hur kan DES användas för att bidra till minskandet av osäkerheter i tillverkande företag som introducerar processinnovation? För att besvara dessa frågor genomfördes an litteraturstudie och en fallstudie som innehöll simulering. Fallstudien som utfördes på ett tillverkningsföretag som är i planeringsstadiet för att införa en processinnovation. Innovationen har för avsikt att göra produktionen mer miljövänlig och samtidigt skapa en fördel över konkurrenterna. Nuvarande planering är fylld av osäkerheter eftersom tillägget av någonting nytt alltid gör det. Därför är reduceringen av osäkerheter avgörande för att en implementering ska kunna genomföras Genom att identifiera forskning inom området, och jämföra den med resultat från företagsrelaterade intervjuer och workshops, identifierade kännetecken på processinnovation och hur processinnovation skapar osäkerheter. Genom att använda DES i examensarbetet, minskades antalet osäkerheter, till fullo och delvis, och nya osäkerheter identifierades. Dessutom visar resultat på studien att simulering kan användas som ett visualiseringsverktyg för att skapa en diskussionsplattform angående framtida förändringar i produktionen.

Abstract:
Passenger safety within vehicles is a priority for automotive companies in order to meet both the regulations and customer expectations. The safety critical materials, those used for absorbing energy during a crash, are simulated with FEA in order to design and improve components and to reduce the requirement for physical testing, which in turn saves on development time and cost. The simulation capabilities of Jaguar Land Rover were identified as lacking in accuracy for energy absorbing materials. Quasi-static and dynamic testing of expanded polypropylene as coupon samples and vehicle components was carried out to assess their stress-strain responses, energy absorption capabilities and strain rate effects. Using the properties within FEA the mechanical behaviour of the material was predicted and validated against the physical testing. Updated material models were implemented back into Jaguar Land Rover that fully incorporate strain rate effects and contain reliable, traceable input data. The material models require stress-strain curves, density, material modulus and un-loading characteristics. A test methodology has been implemented into Jaguar Land Rover for characterising energy absorbing materials, something that was previously unavailable. This includes the use of three machines, a low strain rate Instron 5800R, a high strain rate Drop Tower and a Very High Strain rate (VHS) testing rig; each used to understand the effect of compression testing at a range of strain rates and under decelerating/constant velocity impact conditions. Energy absorbing materials were sourced from two foam manufacturers. It was shown that different manufacturer’s material performed differently, even when supplied to the same requirement and manufactured from the same precursor. Computed tomography under synchrotron radiation was utilised to inspect material differences, identifying possible causes for stress-strain changes under compression. From the images a 3D mesostructural model was created to predict the material performance during deformation. As a result Jaguar Land Rover procedures were changed, increasing FEA capabilities and increasing the utilisation of foam within the vehicle. New test procedures were implemented for characterising future energy absorbing materials. The simulation and computed tomography work will help towards the understanding of foam compression mechanisms.

Abstract:
Self-pierce riveting (SPR) is the core joining technology used by Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) to join aluminium & mixed material body in white (BIW). Currently, the application of this process has a serious constraint to the business due to the high investment and intensive labour required by physically testing joint feasibility. This is a critical issue especially where different stacks need to be joined by one SPR gun. In this case, the selection of a common rivet/die combination which suits different material stacks requires labour intensive work that in some cases can create long delays during a vehicle development and commissioning. In this context, the development of a simulation technique, based on Finite Element Analysis (FEA), could allow virtual assessment of the manufacturing feasibility of a joint. This will enable significant business benefits including: saving time, costs and materials requirement for the experimental trials. Three major challenges need to be addressed: short CPU time, accuracy and robustness in order for its application in a manufacturing environment. To achieve these objectives, detailed numerical methods capable of reproducing the key factors affecting the experimental process like tooling, boundary conditions and material plastic deformation are developed. For the first time, a thermo-mechanical finite element model for simulation of the SPR process has been proposed. This allowed consideration of the increase in temperature due to friction and plastic deformation generated during the rivet insertion. The effect of thermal softening and strain hardening were characterized for the development of the substrate material model and their influence on the numerical simulation was assessed. This study has been validated via production line data and a significantly high level of correlation between simulation and experimental data for over 1000 joints representative of a vehicle platform has been achieved. The application of the developed simulation technique will enable several business benefits such as significant reduction of engineering time and costs in contrast to the experimental procedure. These advantages allow a smooth implementation of the SPR process in a JLR production line by providing engineering recommendations rapidly and consistently. All these features, combined with accuracy and robustness have enabled the application of the developed tool into JLR business.
