Production planning in additive manufacturing and 3D printing
TL;DR: The production planning problem in additive manufacturing and 3D printing is introduced for the first time in the literature and a mathematical model to formulate it is developed and coded in CPLEX and two different heuristic procedures, namely best-fit and adapted best- fit rules, are developed in JavaScript.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agent-based hierarchical production planning and scheduling in make-to-order manufacturing system
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the operational flexibility provided by this mechanism is able to help manufacturing system to respond demand fluctuation through balancing the capacity across the entire system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Auxetic piezoelectric energy harvesters for increased electric power output
Qiang Li,Yang Kuang,Meiling Zhu +2 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 2D auxetic substrate is sandwiched between two piezoelectric layers, which is capable of introducing auxetic behaviors and thus increasing the transverse stress in the piezelectric layer when subjected to a longitudinal stretching load.
Journal ArticleDOI
A dynamic order acceptance and scheduling approach for additive manufacturing on-demand production
TL;DR: This paper introduces the dynamic OAS problem in on-demand production with PBF systems and aims to provide an approach for manufacturers to make decisions simultaneously on the acceptance and scheduling of dynamic incoming orders to maximize the average profit-per-unit time during the whole makespan.
Journal ArticleDOI
Order acceptance and scheduling in direct digital manufacturing with additive manufacturing
TL;DR: The OAS problem in a competitive environment where on-demand production service providers with multiple PBF systems compete for orders dynamically released on the market is introduced.
