Full textAbstract:
This dissertation deals with the problem of locating inspection stations in two different scenarios: (1) in a manufacturing environment, and (2) in a network involving the transportation of hazardous materials. In the manufacturing environment problem, the location of specialized inspection stations in a serial system and in a serial-parallel system is considered. These location problems have the special characteristic that the demand for the facilities being located is from prespecified link flows and their properties. When defects are introduced in a serial manufacturing system, objectives such as minimization of total cost, maximization of yield, and minimization of undetected faulty units are all viable optimization criteria. The dissertation develops several new models for locating specialized inspection stations using such objectives. Cases considered include (1) when inspection/rework stations are to be located, (2) when inspection stations are already located but their operating modes (rework or scrap) are to be determined, and (3) when both locations and operating modes are to be determined. Exact and/or heuristic methods of solutions for these models are developed and some computational experience is reported. Serial lines have the disadvantage that the product flow is easily disrupted by a single machine malfunction anywhere on the line. One way of improving system performance is to provide some degree of redundancy at the machine level using serial-parallel systems. Extensions of some of the serial-system results to the serial-parallel systems are also presented. In the hazardous material transportation setting, the regulating agencies problem of making decisions on where to inspect trucks on the underlying transportation network is considered. In the case when each inspection station's capacity is limited, the problem can be formulated as a new capacitated facility location problem. Some heuristics and an exact branch-and-bound procedure to solve this problem are developed and some computational experience is reported.

Full textAbstract:
In multistage manufacturing processes it is common to locate inspection stations after some or all of the processing workstations. The purpose of the inspection is to reduce the total manufacturing cost, resulted from unidentified defective items being processed unnecessarily through subsequent manufacturing operations. This total cost is the sum of the costs of production, inspection and failures (during production and after shipment). Introducing inspection stations into a serial multistage manufacturing process, although constituting an additional cost, is expected to be a profitable course of action. Specifically, at some positions the associated inspection costs will be recovered from the benefits realised through the detection of defective items, before wasting additional cost by continuing to process them. In this research, a novel general cost modelling for allocating a limited number of inspection stations in serial multistage manufacturing processes is formulated. In allocation of inspection station (AOIS) problem, as the number of workstations increases, the number of inspection station allocation possibilities increases exponentially. To identify the appropriate approach for the AOIS problem, different optimisation methods are investigated. The MAX-MIN Ant System (MMAS) algorithm is proposed as a novel approach to explore AOIS in serial multistage manufacturing processes. MMAS is an ant colony optimisation algorithm that was designed originally to begin an explorative search phase and, subsequently, to make a slow transition to the intensive exploitation of the best solutions found during the search, by allowing only one ant to update the pheromone trails. Two novel heuristics information for the MMAS algorithm are created. The heuristic information for the MMAS algorithm is exploited as a novel means to guide ants to build reasonably good solutions from the very beginning of the search. To improve the performance of the MMAS algorithm, six local search methods which are well-known and suitable for the AOIS problem are used. Selecting relevant parameter values for the MMAS algorithm can have a great impact on the algorithm’s performance. As a result, a method for tuning the most influential parameter values for the MMAS algorithm is developed. The contribution of this research is, for the first time, a methodology using MMAS to solve the AOIS problem in serial multistage manufacturing processes has been developed. The methodology takes into account the constraints on inspection resources, in terms of a limited number of inspection stations. As a result, the total manufacturing cost of a product can be reduced, while maintaining the quality of the product. Four numerical experiments are conducted to assess the MMAS algorithm for the AOIS problem. The performance of the MMAS algorithm is compared with a number of other methods this includes the complete enumeration method (CEM), rule of thumb, a pure random search algorithm, particle swarm optimisation, simulated annealing and genetic algorithm. The experimental results show that the effectiveness of the MMAS algorithm lies in its considerably shorter execution time and robustness. Further, in certain conditions results obtained by the MMAS algorithm are identical to the CEM. In addition, the results show that applying local search to the MMAS algorithm has significantly improved the performance of the algorithm. Also the results demonstrate that it is essential to use heuristic information with the MMAS algorithm for the AOIS problem, in order to obtain a high quality solution. It was found that the main parameters of MMAS include the pheromone trail intensity, heuristic information and evaporation of pheromone are less sensitive within the specified range as the number of workstations is significantly increased.

INTRODUCTION: The leading cause of injury and death among children in the United States is motor vehicle crashes. Even though laws have been amended and public awareness campaigns and education has increased, many children are still improperly restrained or not restrained at all. When correctly used, child restraints significantly reduce risk of injury or death in a motor vehicle crash. AIM: The purpose of the questions is to exhibit the baseline knowledge of participants before receiving car seat education from certified technicians. METHODS: Over an eight week period, Safe Kids Cobb County Car Seat Technicians distributed a 16-item survey, with 10 knowledge-based questions and 6 demographic questions to Inspection Station participants. Descriptive statistics were run and t-tests were calculated to determine if participant age, ethnicity, and gender were associated with overall knowledge scores. A simple linear regression test was run to determine the association between participant education level and total car seat safety knowledge. RESULTS: One-hundred and sixty nine surveys were completed. Participant knowledge of car seat safety ranged from 0% to 90% on all ten items. No significant correlation between participant knowledge and age was found. The relationship between total knowledge and education level was found to be slightly significant. However, ethnicity and gender were found to be significantly associated with total knowledge scores. DISCUSSION: The results from this study describe baseline knowledge among a sample of participants at Safe Inspection Station activities held in Cobb County, Georgia. These results can help inform tailoring of future programming so that the impact of enhanced health education / prevention messages for intended populations can be maximized.

Inspection is good for quality control and cost saving in production systems. It is a great challenge for managers to decide locations of inspection activities. Most of literatures considered multistage serial production systems; however, in the recent decades, reentrant production systems with higher complexity emerge. One of the most important characteristics of reentrant production systems is that the work units would be manufactured layer by layer and mostly each layer processes through the same machines. In this research, two mathematical models are developed to find the optimal inspection policies with the lowest production cost for both multistage serial production systems and reentrant production systems. The models are highly extensible and applicable; with properly modifying the factors, the models can be applied to different production systems. We considered all or none inspection levels for each workstation with two types of inspection errors. There are three possibilities for the treatment of detected nonconforming units: repair, rework and scrap. Units that need to be reworked would be sent back to workstations according to its defect. Because there is a potential allocation of inspection station behind each workstation, as the number of workstations increases, the problem size increases exponentially. In order to save the computation time, a heuristic solution method based on the characteristics of the mathematical model is developed, and it has a better result compared with the optimization method based on the complete enumeration. Keywords: Serial production system, reentrant production system, inspection station allocation

High quality is one of essential targets of today''s enterprises, because it brings lots of benefits to the companies. There are many methods to achieve high quality for a product; however, the inspection is a fundamental task to promote product quality. Inspecting a product at the right time and at the right place will result in both high quality and cost saving. The main purpose of this study is to develop a cost model for allocating inspection stations for re-entrant production systems. Two important issues for this research are how many inspection stations to be used and where to locate these inspection stations. This study tries to find the minimal value of the total manufacturing cost which is composed of revenue of shipping a conforming item and costs of processing, material handling, inspection, internal failure, and external failure. In literature, the methods of mathematics programming are used to solve inspection stations allocation problem. However, the computation time becomes prohibitively large when the number of potential inspection stations becomes higher. In order to resolve the problem, this research uses the genetic algorithm to find the near optimal solution with an acceptable calculation time. In addition, this research performs a sensibility analysis for the factors used in the cost model to prove that the results of this research obeys the five rules of thumb of allocation of inspection stations presented by Peters and Williams. Moreover, an analysis of ANOVA is done for the effects of those factors.

This research is to study the allocation problem of inspection stations for re-entrant production systems. Five dispatching rules: FCFS, CR, EDD, SPT and LTR are used for the evaluation of the allocation problem with the performance indices of total manufacturing cost, mean flow time, total execution time, and total delay time. The total manufacturing cost is composed of processing cost, inspection cost, overdue cost, external failure cost, and revenue. This study uses the AutoSched simulation package to develop a model for the re-entrant production system. In addition, this research performs a sensibility analysis for the factors used in the cost model to prove that the results of this research obey the five rules of the thumb of allocation of inspection stations presented by Peters and Williams. Moreover, an analysis of ANOVA is done for the effects of those factors. Finally, a comparison between this research and the serial production system is done for the allocation problem.

In recent years, the demand of touch panel increases rapidly. The new input interface is gradually affecting people's usage of various electronic products. Touch panel is often equipped with flat-panel displays, so it must be transparent well and invisible. The defect of touch panel appearance has to be inspected critically. At present, the appearance quality of touch panel has been determined subjectively by means of human visual inspection. However, large amount of various defects make opeartors hard to remenber, and different opeartors may judge the same defect with different defect code. As a result, it makes inspection outcomes faithless and increases the difficulty of inspector training. This research focuses on the improvement of touch panel inspection training and inspected process to increase inspector’s certificated ratio and reduce products scrapped ratio. Through factory on-site obervation and consulting with experienced and new inspectors, the training situation was realized. The training materials were reedited using the rule of memory. Such as “Classified defects”, “different color impression”, “illustration”, “different layout”, and “mulit-perception”. The modified training materials have been verified to be truly helpful for inspector’s learning and increase certificated ratio. At practical inspection workstation characteristics of visual perception ( different luminance contrast ) was applied to increase hit rate. The written test average score from 81.5 to 92.2, the operation test average score from 67.4 to 76.5. Besides, a new carrier and packaging have been designed to reduce product damage, the scrap ratio from 8.2% to 4.9%. This research provides a simple hybrid application case. Applying knowledge of human visual inspection on the modification of training program, a practical inspection problem has been solved. This improving process can be generalized to other inspection station.

In 1989, International Agency for Research on Cancer classified diesel exhaust as a Group 2A carcinogen, and it also indicated that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the most important mutagen and carcinogen. Therefore, the diesel exhaust in diesel vehicle emission inspection stations (inspection stations) could cause occupational hazard to the diesel engine exhaust emission inspectors (inspectors) while performing tests. The objective of this research was to explore 1) PAHs in fine particles (PM2.5) of the workplace environment in inspection stations and inspectors, 2) 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP), a biological marker, and 3) 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a biomarker of oxidative damage, in order to assess workers’ exposure concentrations. Repeated measures were conducted in this research to sample the workplace environment and the inspectors. Personal samplings of 28 workers for 3 consecutive days at 4 inspection stations were performed. In addition, workers’ pre-shift and post-shift urine samples were taken to determine 1-OHP and 8-OHdG concentrations. Personal environmental monitors (PEMs) were used to collects PM2.5 samples in workplace air samplings and personal samplings. The high performance liquid chromatography /fluorescence detector (HPLC/FLD) was utilized to measure concentrations of PAHs in PM2.5 in both the workplace environment and personal samples. During the period of workplace environment sampling, biological monitoring was performed on urine samples, and HPLC/FLD was used to determine concentrations of 1-OHP. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure 8-OHdG. 38 individuals were recruited in the control group after matching by sex and age with the inspectors. One-time post-shift urine samples were collected. Both groups were asked to fill out questionnaires. Statistical methods were conducted in order to adjust confounding factors (e.g. smoking, BMI, etc) of the urine metabolite. Our research results showed that concentrations for daily ambient air samples of PM2.5 at inspection stations ranged from 162.73 to 183.84 μg/m3. Concentrations for PAHs ranged from 9.19 to 12.36 ng/m3. Concentrations of personal air samples for PM2.5 and PAHs were between 85.84-94.38 μg/m3 and 3.04-4.11 ng/m3, respectively. The significant association between concentrations of PM2.5 and PAHs in ambient and personal air samples (r = 0.724, p < 0.001) demonstrated that diesel exhaust is the main source of pollution at the inspection stations. Therefore, the inspectors’ occupational exposure to PAHs could be attributed to diesel exhaust particles (DEPs). The rurinary 1-OHP concentrations for the inspectors and the control group were 0.32 ± 0.26 μmol/mol creatinine and 0.20 ± 0.16 μmol/mol creatinine, respectively. The difference in concentrations between these two group was statistically significant (p = 0.006). The analysis results of factors affecting 1-OHP in urine samples showed that inspectors’s levels were significantly higher than levels of the control group by 0.164 log10 1-OHP (p = 0.029). The confounding effect of smoking was significantly higher than non-smoking by 0.265 log10 1-OHP (p = 0.001) and the BMI was not a significant confouner (p = 0.703) The rurinary 8-OHdG concentrations for the inspectors and the control group were 8.68 ± 8.23 μg/g creatinine and 5.85 ± 4.14 μg/g creatinine, respectively. The difference in concentrations between these two group was also statistically significant (p = 0.045). Similar analysis was performed to determine the factors influencing 8-OHdG in urine samples. It was found that the inspectors’ levels were significantly higher than levels of the control group by 0.146 log10 8-OHdG (p = 0.042). Moreover, the confounding effects of smoking (p = 0.328) and BMI (p = 0.994) on 8-OHdG were not significant. The analysis results of the association between personal air samples and inspectors’ urinary samples indicated that the correlation coefficient (r) between log10 PM2.5 and log10 PAHs in DEPs was significant (r = 0.642, p < 0.001). In addition, the correlation between log10 PAHs and log10 1-OHP (r = 0.245, p = 0.025), and log10 PAHs and log10 8-OHdG (r = 0.274, p = 0.012) were also significant. Our study found that there were siginificant associations between 1) log10 PAHs and log10 1-OHP, and 2) log10 PAHs and log10 8-OHdG in inspectors exposed to PM2.5 in DEPs (DEP2.5) in the workplace environment. The results of multiple regression and generalized estimating equation analysis revealed that PAHs in DEP2.5 has a significant impact on 1-OHP levels. Furthermore, PAHs in DEP2.5 is also a signifant factor on 8-OHdG concentrations. Therefore, when assessing the extenal exposure to levels of PAHs in DEP2.5, we recommend that concentrations of 1-OHP and 8-OHdG can serve as good biomarkers of internal doses and early biological effects.

The market is under the competitive pressures of globalization, how to face the competitive pressure of international manufacturers to achieve sustained-yield management and sustainable profitability. In order to increase the efficiency of the operating mode, it is able to improve the internal system continuously and external links, automation to achieve the ever-changing needs of customers. The changing needs of the global market, rapid changes and fierce competition in the market force enterprises to pursue low inventory, but the relative period of output is particularly important. Therefore, this study will explore how to improve the process of the field, to reduce the unnecessary time to waste, and to improve the efficiency of goods inspection station. In addition, the quality inspection station will be applied with the 5S methodology and priority rule to effectively enhance the efficiency of the operation of the scene. In this study, the quality assurance inspection station of the company uses the work measurement in IE methodology, it is unreasonable for the work found and causes time to waste. Follow the Deming PDCA, brainstorming combined with 5S methodology to improve the quality assurance inspection work environment, the results of practice show that when the work environment of the inspection station has become relatively open, colleagues can quickly find the location of the items according to the label. The floor grid line is also effective to control of the station and the amount of parts, the focus is to improve the parts box and parts full. The situation also improved that the aisle is too small, the use of crane risk problems, the work also makes the work of colleagues to work better. For the improvement of the schedule, we use the existing parts to distinguish the parallel machine or the independent machine. Then, the four priority rules FCFS, SPT, EDD, and CR are used to measure three data randomly from the repeatable 50 data. The average process time and the average delay time of the index to determine whether there is a significant difference in the ANOVA analysis to improve the work process. The results show that the parallel and independent machines use the SPT rule, the average process and the delay time are the least. It is the best solution to use SPI rule to solve the inspection of the inspection station.

This study investigated aquaculture fishermen’s satisfaction with the service quality provided by the Yong-an Fish Disease Inspection Station in the Yong-an District of Kaohsiung City in southern Taiwan. Relevant literature on service quality and customer satisfaction were reviewed to establish the theoretical framework for this study. On the basis of the literature review results, a questionnaire on satisfaction with the service quality of the Yon-gan Fish Disease Inspection Station in Kaohsiung City was developed. This questionnaire comprised five constructs (tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy) and 23 items. A total of 250 questionnaires were randomly administered to aquaculture fishermen at the Yong-an Fish Disease Inspection Station from July to September, 2015, with 236 valid responses returned for a return rate of 94.4%. SPSS for Windows 12.0 (Chinese version) was used to conduct and analyzed, including descriptive statistics, a t-test, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson’s correlation analysis, a regression analysis, and an importance–performance analysis of the valid responses. The results were as follows: (1) The t-tests between expected service quality and actual perceived service quality showed significant differences in all constructs except for “empathy,” and the scores of expected service quality were higher than those of actual perceived service quality. (2) Regarding the aquaculture fishermen’s demographic characteristics, only sex attained nonsignificant difference in the construct of perceived service quality of the fish disease inspection station. (3) Regarding the aquaculture fishermen’s demongraphic characteristics, annual salary and fish farm location attained significant difference in the construct of satisfaction with the service quality of the fish disease inspection station. (4) The perceived service quality of the fish disease inspection station correlated significantly with the aquaculture fishermen’s satisfaction with its service. Related suggestions were provided as a reference for the fish disease inspection station to review its service comprehensively, thereby enabling the station to formulate specific strategies for improving the quality of its inspection service. These strategies could assist the station with increasing the aquaculture fishermen’s satisfaction with the service received and with obtaining their trust.

The purpose of this research is to explore and understand how leisure participation, leisure constraints and negotiation strategies affect the activities of the inspectors. This research was conducted using the models of intrapersonal, interpersonal, and structural constraints from Crawford and Godbey (1987). The methodology consisted of purposive sampling and semi-structured interviews of fifteen inspectors from Taoyuan Police Department. The research results concluded: 1. Inspectors enjoy leisure activities such as running, playing baseball/basketball, drinking tea, reading, watching TV, activities to do with medical treatment/health and having family time by eating out or going on holidays. 2. Intrapersonal constraints are motivation, stress and cognition. 3. Interpersonal constraints mainly influenced by holidays and family. 4. Structural constraints resulted with unfixed working hours, job duties, job position, finance, travelling distance, recreational facilities and the environment. 5. When faced on constraints, it is necessary to communicate, plan and negotiate problem-solving strategies and conduct evaluations to reduce the likelihood of the problem reoccurring. From this research, the recommendations for the inspectors includes: 1. Establishing knowledge about leisure by having effective management of the limited spare time for leisure activities to obtain a positive balance of work and life. 2. Changing working schedules and duties to create more leisure time. 3. Delegating responsibilities to the deputy inspector to evenly share the work load. 4. Junior directors with less experience should follow a financial plan to develop financial skills. Recommendations for police authorities include: 1. Holding appropriate leisure education programs to avoid the directors’ misconception about leisure. 2. Reducing administrative work, as the publics’ safety is top priority. This is to avoid the vicious cycle of competitive performance. 3. Sharing work responsibilities with the deputy inspector by setting up appropriate holiday arrangements, therefore achieving a more reasonable working environment with humane principles.

This study investigates the operating difficulties and strategies of care provided by “Indigenous Tribes Cultural Health Station” (hereinafter abbreviated as “Cultural Station”) currently implemented by (Council of Indigenous Peoples) (hereinafter abbreviated as “CIP”)” from the perspective of service provider. This study used methods, such as literature review and focus group interview, to collect data. This study interviewed public sectors, experts, scholars, and practitioners of “Cultural Station Supervisors and Care Attendants” to investigate and inspect the current status and process of implementation of cultural station service delivery under the care service system of the CIP, in order to further understand: (1) to investigate whether the care service system provided by the CIP can meet the care service needs of indigenous elderly people; (2) to analyze relevant factors affecting the care service of practitioner role; (3) to understand how to maintain the sustainable operation of cultural health station when faced with the increase in care service needs of elderly people in tribes, in order to provide the research results as reference for future development of evaluation model and policy promotion. The research results showed that, the most important care need of elderly people in tribes is “companionship.” “Cultural heritage” needs to be improved most. In terms of health care, “medicaid service” and “accurate eating habit” are in serious shortage. All in all, the establishment of cultural station still meets the needs of indigenous elderly people. However, the inspection and reflection on health care from cultural perspective showed that, there is a lack of a series of systematic care system for elderly people in tribes to meet their special cultural health care needs. Practitioners of cultural station significantly need “funds” and “training course planning” for cultural station from subsidization of central government. When faced with the lack of social workers manpower of social work profession for indigenous tribes and high turnover rate, the specific strategies and approaches of the CIP are still unclear as yet. In terms of the factors affecting difficulties, difficulties are highly correlated with “parent organization,” “provision of support funding,” “staffing,” and “social resources networks.” If the cultural station set up by care system of the CIP can provide the services and measures required by service providers and service receivers, it will be helpful to the maintenance of relationship among cultural station in indigenous tribes, elderly people, and social networks. In this way, relevant care services meeting the needs of local indigenous elderly people can be provided. This study proposed suggestions for four dimensions: 1. Government authorities (CIP and Indigenous Peoples Department); 2. Parent organization of cultural station; 3. Practitioners of cultural station; 4. Subsequent researchers. The suggestions for government authorities are: to promote the tribal languages and develop APP system, as well as to develop specific health care policies for indigenous peoples. The suggestions for parent organization of cultural station and practitioners are: to focus on manpower training, to develop self-management and user charge directions in the future, to obtain Level C license, and to improve professional degree. In the end, the suggestions for subsequent researchers are: to develop regional and in-depth field research on development of cultural stations of various places.

For exploring the healthy effects from indoor and outdoor concentration of CO、CO2、TVOC、O3 and five particulate matters to staff worked in vehicle inspective stations, six stations in Kaohsiung and Pingtung areas were chosen as the experimental targets in this study. The monitoring results show that the range of average concentrations of CO、CO2、TVOC、O3、PM2.5 and PM10 are 0.3ppm ~ 13.5ppm、328ppm ~ 481ppm、411ppb ~ 7341ppb、16.1ppb ~ 57.9 ppb、10µg/m³ ~ 47µg/m³ and 43µg/m³ ~ 214µg/m³, respectively in six chosen stations. The average concentration of CO2 in every station is neither significantly different from each other, nor over the governmental standard, but the average concentrations of CO、TVOC、O3、PM2.5 and PM10 at stations where affected by vehicle’s exhaust or near industrial park are significantly increased. In addition, the concentration of some monitoring stations had already exceeded the standard of the indoor air quality in our country. Among the monitored results, the average concentrations of PM10 in stations of A、B、C(186μg/m3、163μg/m3、209μg/m3) and TVOC in A station(4389ppb) have seriously exceeded the permitted level of government. The results in this study shows clearly that the concentrations of the monitored pollutants in stations will be increased by the idle vehicles waited for inspection, or by the exhaust from the traffic vehicles out of stations and air pollutants from industrial park nearby.

THe Environmental Protection Administration has successively established 72 air qualities inspection station in Taiwan from September, 1993. The main purpose is to grasp accurately air pollution condition and change tendency of air quality in Taiwan each region. Due to monitor data have timeliness and presents the non-linear dynamic tendency. However the Genetic Algorithm - Neural Network has special characteristic ( i.e. system recognition, self-study……) and ability of the solution to non-linearity dynamic system problem. This study combines the Genetic Algorithm - Neural Network with genetic develops the algorithm to achieve complete search, and therefore could avoid falling partial best solution. Enhance the genetic algorithm-neural network (GANN) to apply to predict short-term air quality and diagnose extraordinary monitor data. Based on trial and Error method and the correlation theory basic principle in this study, the optimum set value of seven parameters include date partition, hidden layer neurons, weight value, Population Size, Current Generation, Crossover Rate and Mutation Rate can be obtained. The results showed that the most suitable gene class nerve network was available in predicting short-term air quality and diagnosing extraordinary monitor data. In future, by the genetic algorithm-neural network (GANN) we were able to enable concurrently dual functions for air quality inspection station. In addition, reduces consumed time and manpower, and then causes the Taiwan air quality inspection station to form a complete protection network.
