    Integrating m-Machine scheduling into MRP

    This paper presents an approach to integrate the m-machine production scheduling into Material Requirements Planning (MRP). In general, generating MRP considers only Bill of Materials (BOM) and ignores capacity constraints and operating sequences; therefore, a production plan is unachievable when scheduling is actually performed next on shop-floor. That is why recent research has focused on executing both MRP and scheduling simultaneously. Our approach uses an integer linear programming model to plan and schedule concurrently to look right through the capacity constraints and operating sequences. The objective function of the proposed model considers both planning and scheduling purposes that is to minimize total inventory costs and order's tardiness. All significant and inevitable concerns when separately generating MRP and schedule are incorporated with the model through several constraints. Numerical results show that this model can be used to simultaneously generate reasonable MRP as well as feasible and optimal m-machine production schedule. © 2009 IEEE.

    This paper proposes a method of camera calibration and the influence of principal point on camera parameters. The camera parameters are represented in terms of a set of intermediate parameters. The intermediate parameters and lens distortion coefficients are iteratively computed. The image coordinates are rectified on each cycle of iteration. Once the iteration is terminated, the initial parameters are computed from the obtained intermediate parameters. Then, the camera parameters and distortion coefficients are iteratively computed from the obtained initial parameters and the image coordinates are rectified too. In the experimental results, the proposed method is tested by change principal point to observe the influential principal point on camera parameters and compared the results with the conventional method.

    The firing angle adjustment of ac-dc converter that adjust firing angle proportional to control signal. The dc output voltage is not linear. This paper presents the technique to generate the firing signal for ac-dc converter which has linear dc output voltage. This technique decoded the arccosine value as binary data and save in ROM, before compare with control signal. All digital circuits and ROM were constructed using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and Verilog Hardware Description Language (Verilog HDL) so that the proposed technique has small size and ease of implementation. The experimental results show the dc output voltage and output waveform that agree with the design. Moreover, this technique can be applied to multi-output for dual converter and 3- phase system. © 2008 SICE.

    Reliability modeling for automatic operation mode of FSWO&FSWB system
    (2017-06-07)
    Yuchomboon, Yutthana
    ;
    This paper applies FMEA and FTA approach which has been proved to be acceptable and widely applied in many applications of modeling and methods supporting the production system and the safety and/or maintenance manager to identify how subsystems and components could fail and what are the corresponding effects on the whole system, and to quantify the reliability parameters for complex systems. A case study represents that the automatic operation mode from the primary fuel switch to secondary fuel called FSWO (Fuel Switch Over) procedure, which is the process of switching fuels from natural gas to oil fuel. For FSWB (Fuel Switch Back), this is process of switching from oil fuel to natural gas. The numerical illustrations and results substantiate that the model approach capable of pointing out and quantifying the importance of each component in the system.

    In general, the process of the SPRT module calibration takes long time and requires all employees participation in the calibration process, and it also requires an expert for calculation of results and measurement uncertainty. All of these waste a vast amount of working time. Therefore, this paper provides the automatic SPRT module calibration process which can reduce the steps of calibration, resulting in process time reduction and the automatic process doesn't require the expert to calculate results and measurement uncertainty. © 2011 IEEE.

    A mathematical model evaluation for the standard uncertainty of Temperature uniformity
    (2016-09-06)
    Jaoskul, Yada
    ;
    This paper presents a technique to evaluate for the standard uncertainty of temperature uniformity. In general, when considering the temperature test chamber as a constant temperature chamber that has achieved an arbitrary uniform temperature, the uncertainty at that achieved temperature can be separated into the two factors of chronological temperature fluctuation in time, and spatial temperature fluctuation, referred to as temperature uniformity. Temperature uniformity is represented through two methods: temperature variation in space base on the center of the working space, and temperature gradient considering the entire working space. To represent a linear integer mathematical model applied to evaluate temperature uniformity. The numerical illustrations and results substantiate that the model proposed is useful to simultaneously consider x and y axis when determining temperature uniformity. Moreover, we found that the linear integer model made a significant impact on uniformity of the temperature chambers.

    For mobile back-lighting applications, a switched-capacitor-based serial DC-DC converter using solar power supplies is proposed in this paper. Unlike conventional switched-capacitor DC-DC converters, the proposed converter pushes up the output voltage of a switched-capacitor-based circuit by the voltage of solar cells. For this reason, the proposed converter can realize not only long battery runtime but also small hardware-cost and wide input-range. Concretely, in comparison with the conventional parallel converter using 1.5× step-up SC converters, the proposed converter can achieve 20% reduction of hardware cost and 16% extension of input range. The characteristics of the proposed converter are clarified by theoretical analyses. Furthermore, SPICE simulations and experiments show the validity of circuit design, where theoretical results correspond well with simulation results.
