Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a disruptive technology with the potential to
revolutionize manufacturing. However, control of product deformation remains a
major issue. Quality control requires a generic methodology that can predict
deformations for a wide range of designs based on data available for a few
previously manufactured products. We develop a Bayesian methodology to
update prior conceptions of deformation for a new design based on printed
products of different shapes.

Although additive manufacturing holds great promise, dimensional geometric
accuracy remains a critical issue and lacks of generic solve method. Our work fills
the gap by establishing a general model predicting in-plane deviations of AM built
freeform products. Built upon our previous model for cylinder and polyhedron,
this work directly predicts freeform shape deviations from CAD design. SLA
experiments validated this method, indicating the prospect of optimal
compensation for freeform products.

Xiao Liu,
liuxiao@sg.ibm.comMotivated by real-life problems, this paper presents a statistical model for
degrdation data collected from disjoint time intervals (blocks). Within each block,
high-frequency degradation measurements are available. Of interest is the
extreme (i.e., maximum or minimum) of the degradation level within each
interval.

In this research, we study an automated modeling approach to constructing
phase-type (PH) distributions via mathematical optimization and develop PH-
based models to analyze complex data with covariates.

3 - A Discrete Semi-markov Model to Determine Optimal Repair
Decisions for Trend-renewal Process

The failure and repair process of a repairable machine (system) is modeled as a
trend-renewal process permitting the modeling of imperfect repairs. The state of
such a system can be characterized by the real age of the system and the failure
count permitting the use of a two-state semi-Markov model to determine optimal
repair/replacement decisions. Threshold type policies are established. Failure data
from a cement kiln is used to demonstrate the approach.
4 - A Mixed Effect Kijima Model and Application in Optimal
Maintenance Analysis

The Kijima model has been widely applied to analyzing repairable systems with
general repair efficiency. Most existing studies treat the repair efficiency as a fixed
value while it can vary among a series of repair actions. In this paper, we propose
a mixed effect Kijima model to characterize the variation of repair efficiency. An
SAEM algorithm is developed for model parameter estimation. Based on the
proposed model an optimal maintenance analysis is developed as a case study.

Electric Vehicles
Feng Ju, Assistant Professor, Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ,

jeffrey0930@gmail.comIn this paper, we present a flow model to analyze product quality in battery
assembly lines with 100% inspections and repairs for defective parts. A Markov
chain based model is introduced to analyze quality propagations along the battery
production line. Analytical expressions of final product quality are derived and
structural properties are investigated. A case study is presented to illustrate the
applicability of the method.

Control of production operations is considered as one of the most economical
methods to improve energy efficiency in manufacturing systems. This paper
investigates energy consumption reduction in production systems through
effective scheduling of machine startup and shutdown. The theoretical methods
are applied through a case study in automotive paint shop operations.
3 - Adaptive Sensor Allocation Strategy for Process Monitoring and
Diagnosis in a Bayesian Network

This talk proposes a novel approach to adaptively reallocate sensor resources
based on online observations in a Bayesian Network model, which can enhance
both monitoring and diagnosis capabilities. The proposed method addresses two
fundamental issues in an integrated manner: when to reallocate sensors and how
to update sensor layout. Case studies are performed on a hot forming and a cap
alignment process to illustrate the performance of the proposed method under
different fault scenarios.

Steady-state detection is critical in process performance assessment, fault
detection and process automation and control. We proposed a robust on-line
steady-state detection algorithm using multiple change-point model and particle
filtering techniques. Extensive numerical analysis shows that the proposed new
method is more accurate and robust than the other existing methods.
