TL;DR: In this paper, an eco-approach is presented to enable operators to achieve optimal productivity for fuel efficiency of a hydraulic excavator, and the experimental results show that the combinations of various engine speed settings and bucket cut depths can increase productivity by 30% and cut greenhouse gas emissions by 24%, consequentially moving 62% more spoil every hour for every litre of fuel consumed.

TL;DR: It is concluded that hydraulic oil contamination analysis, namely detection of metallic particulates, offers a reliable way to measure real time wear of hydraulic components.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a framework that uses customer satisfaction as the main contributor towards the state of "total contentment" to measure performance and develop product service systems within industry.

TL;DR: In this article, the use-oriented Product Service System (PSS) adopted within the off-highway construction industry is discussed, where the product stays in the ownership of the provider and is made available in a different form to the customer (user), and is sometimes shared by a number of users.
