Abstract:
Purpose – How can multinational companies become more productive on a global scale? The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether a production improvement programme can improve quality performance in a global network of factories. Specifically, the paper analyses the effects of the Volvo Group's production improvement programme on global quality performance. Design/methodology/approach – The research approach is a case study of the Volvo Production System (VPS). The paper analyses the effects of the programme on global quality performance, using data from an implementation audit and a qu

Abstract:
The aim of the article is to analyse two car brands, Volvo and Toyota, using the concept of the “supersystem of entertainment” in the Marsha Kinder approach. In both companies, people respon-sible for marketing create the image of the brand using analogous strategies as in the case of promo-ting products of popular culture. The cars exceed the frame of the commodity and in the process of “mediation of things” they become brands, culture products, even heroes.

Abstract:
Purpose In the recent literature on financialization and the rise of investor capitalism, the successor of managerial capitalism, which dominated until the 1970s, suggests that the firm is today enacted as a bundle of financial assets managed to create value for the shareholders. This paper aims to demonstrate how such views are established relatively recently by examining leadership literature published in the 1970s, representing an entirely different view of leadership work, the role of the firm and capital–labour relations.

The article presents the results of a long-term study (2014-2018) of the biological characteristics of growth and development of plants of the introduced species – red feather clover (Trifolium rubens L.) when growing grass stands for seeds in the soil-and-climatic conditions of the Volga-Vyatka region. The species was assessed for winter hardiness, the duration of the growing season, plant height, structure of seed grass stand, seed productivity and seed quality. Winter hardiness of red feather clover in all years of cultivation was high (more than 80 %). The development of plants took place

Abstract:
A case study in Volvo Powertrain is conducted to examine the distribution of responsibility for human factors in the companies’ engineering design process. Design decisions with human factors impact, and hence system performance implications, are identified in the design of both the product and the production system in a chain of decisions, spread across multiple stakeholder groups. Thus the organisational structure of the engineering design process appears to influence the ability to handle human factors appropriately at each stage of design.

A system for coinjecting mixtures of diesel fuel and water into a heavy-duty diesel engine has been developed and evaluated at the Southwest Research Institute. This system features prototype Lucas electronically controlled injectors, full electronic control, and can vary the percentage of water in the mixture on a cycle-resolved basis. Tests of this system were conducted on a production Volvo D-12 engine, and have produced reduced NOx and smoke emissions over steady-state and transient conditions. Water-diesel coinjection yielded a considerable improvement in NOx-smoke and NOx-BSFC trade-offs

Abstract:
After analyzing the technology of natural stone mining in Russia in comparison with European countries, we conclude that one of the ways to increase the efficiency of the mining transport equipment system in natural stone quarries is to use wheel loaders more widely. Wheel loaders are characterized by high maneuverability, productivity, and are able to combine excavation, transportation, shipping, as well as perform auxiliary work. At the same time, the loader is very effective for providing access to any section of the quarry after stripping loose overburden and waste that impede movement. To

As a result, design decisions have to be made under uncertainty due toa lack of information, structure and knowledge.

Abstract:
Abstract Accurate prediction of oil production flow rates helps production engineers to detect anomalous values which in turn will provide insights about any flaws in huge oil well systems. To aid this, oil flow rate is commonly estimated using empirical correlations. However, in some cases, significant error is inherent in application of this empirical correlation and will often yield inaccurate results. This present work aims to develop a machine learning algorithm based on an Artificial Neural Network to predict with (high accuracy) the oil production flow rate, using an open source data ob
