Computational Dynamics of Multibody Systems: History, Formalisms, and Applications
Peter Eberhard,Werner Schiehlen +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present some fundamentals in multibody dynamics, recursive algorithms and methods for dynamical analysis, in particular methods from linear system analysis and nonlinear dynamics approaches are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Towards a generic design method for reconfigurable manufacturing systems: Analysis and synthesis of current design methods and evaluation of supportive tools
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the state-of-the-art design methods for reconfigurable manufacturing systems (RMSs), in terms of their content, structure, and scope, which leads to a synthesis of the reviewed methods into a generic design method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modularity assessment in reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) design: an Archived Multi-Objective Simulated Annealing-based approach
TL;DR: In this paper, a modularity-based multi-objective approach that uses an adapted version of the "Archived Multi-Objective Simulated Annealing" (AMOSA) method was proposed to solve the optimization problem by selecting from a set of candidate machines the most suitable ones.

Reconfigurable Manufacturing on Multiple Levels: Literature Review and Research Directions
TL;DR: An overview of the current body of research is provided, by assessing which structuring levels of the factory and corresponding research issues that are dealt with, and currently unexplored areas and interesting issues that could be addressed in future research are identified.
Supporting the Design of Reconfigurable Production Systems
TL;DR: To compete, manufacturing companies need production systems that quickly can respond to changes to handle change drivers such as volume variations or new product variants, reconfigurability is imperative as mentioned in this paper.

Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems
TL;DR: Reconfigurability, an engineering technology that deals with cost-effective, quick reaction to market changes, is needed for this new manufacturing paradigm.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends and perspectives in flexible and reconfigurable manufacturing systems
TL;DR: The results show that two-thirds of respondents stated that FMSs are not living up to their full potential, and well over half reported purchasing FMS with excess capacity (which was eventually used) and excess features (which in many cases were not eventually used).
Journal ArticleDOI
Prozessmodule zur Gestaltung flexibilitätsgerechter Produktionssysteme
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors stellen die notwendige Basis zur Gestaltung flexibilitatsgerechter Produktionssysteme dar.

Technische Wissensbibliothek zur Rekonfigurierung von Fertigungssystemen
Uwe Heisel,Martin Meitzner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a rekonfigurierbaren Fertigungssystem is presented, in which die Flexibilitat eines bearbeitungsystems erhohen und so die Produktivitat und die Wettbewerbsfahigkeit produzierender Unternehmen steigern.
