TL;DR: In this paper, a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)-based selective disassembly planning method embedded with customisable decision making models and a novel generic constraint handling algorithm has been developed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the most suitable available technology for waste PCBs, typically categorized as manually dismantling and automatic approaches in developing and developed countries, respectively, to achieve better sustainability and recyclability for waste printed circuit boards, nonmetal powder and precious metals should be developed for a deep recovery following mechanical treatment.

TL;DR: A Simplified Teaching-Learning-Based Optimization (STLBO) algorithm for solving DSP problems effectively and shows that the developed algorithm performs better than other relevant algorithms under a set of public benchmarks.

TL;DR: In the proposed framework, an ontology based approach is developed to integrate and represent the lifecycle information from multiple local data sources within an information services provider.

TL;DR: In this article, a space interference matrix is generated to represent the space interference relationship between each component of a product, and all feasible disassembly sequences can be obtained by analysing the interference matrix in six directions in a 3D environment.
