Guilherme Luz Tortorella,Alejandro Mac Cawley Vergara,Jose Arturo Garza-Reyes,Rapinder Sawhney +3 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the mediating role played by Organizational Learning (OL) capabilities at different contextualization levels on the association between Industry 4.0 (I4.0) technologies and operational performance was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
A modified FMEA approach to enhance reliability of lean systems
TL;DR: In this article, a modified Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) approach is presented to enhance the reliability of Lean systems. But, it does not address the impact of failure modes on the overall performance of the system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Healthcare 4.0: trends, challenges and research directions
Guilherme Luz Tortorella,Flávio Sanson Fogliatto,Alejandro Mac Cawley Vergara,Roberto Vassolo,Rapinder Sawhney +4 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that, despite the recency of the subject, research in H4.0 has been conducted in an interdisciplinary way with a diversified set of applications and functionalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
En-Lean: a framework to align lean and green manufacturing in the metal cutting supply chain
TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology is proposed that allows one to articulate the complex relationship between Lean principles and their overall environmental impacts for specific processes, and a case study illustrates the application of the methodology to the metal cutting industry using single and/or multipoint cutting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sustainable Nanotechnology: Through Green Methods and Life-Cycle Thinking
TL;DR: In this article, the authors emphasize the need to conduct ''life cycle'' based assessments as early in the new product development process as possible, for a better understanding of the potential environmental and human health consequences of nanomaterials over the entire life cycle of a nano-enabled product.
