1. Translating Lean Production : From Managerial Discourse to Organizational Practice
Sammanfattning : The majority of organizational change efforts end in failure. These failures can often be ascribed to lack of understanding of the translation processes that accompany the implementation of management concepts. LÄS MER
2. Senior Management Lean Practice : A Team-Based Approach to Facilitate Learning
Sammanfattning : In order to improve organizational performance, organizations within both production and servicesectors keep turning to the Lean concept with hopes of finding a productive approach to theirchallenges. This tendency appears to remain in spite of reports indicating that the Lean concept isfar from easy to develop, implement and sustain. LÄS MER
3. Operational performance driven production system design process
Sammanfattning : The design process of a production system referred to as the production system design process (PSDP) impacts on the operational performancethroughout the lifecycle of the production system, especially on the rampupand operation phases. Despite the impact of activities of PSDP on the operational performance, how to manage the PSDP is still a challenge for manufacturing companies. LÄS MER
4. At the Mountains of Modeling : Multiscale Simulations of Desalination by Capacitive Deionization
Sammanfattning : More than 2 billion people are living in water-scarce areas. Meanwhile, there are enormous amounts of water in the salty oceans. Capacitive deionization (CDI) rises to the challenge with electrochemical cells for desalinating the water. As the CDI field expands, modeling becomes an increasingly important part of the development landscape. LÄS MER
5. Detailed Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Premixed Flames at Moderate and High Karlovitz Numbers
Sammanfattning : In generally accepted and applied flamelet combustion models, a turbulent flame is mainly assumed distorted by the large-scale turbulence eddies, whereas small-scale turbulence effects on the local flamelet structures are neglected. However, in a lot of industrial applications rather high turbulent intensities are often imposed, which induce turbulence scales at ranges smaller than the flame thickness. LÄS MER
