As product lifecycles are getting shorter and shorter, manufacturers are facing a great deal of economic and political pressure to reclaim and recycle their obsolete products. Disassembly, as one of the natural solutions, is of increasing importance in material and product recovery. However, this process is fraught with a high level of uncertainty (e.g., variations in product structure and condition,...
A method is presented for the robust control of a disassembly system that undergoes process plan variations due to heterogeneity of demands and product conditions. Two colored timed Petri net (CTPN) models is proposed and extended for the hierarchical modeling of both the system architecture and disassembly plans corresponding to the products to be processed. To address the high levels of uncertainty...
Due to the rapid increase of technological waste in recent years, it has become necessary to find ways of handling the waste in an economically sound and environmentally benign manner. In order to do so, many groups are attempting to disassemble obsolete products in order to reuse or recycle the various components and/or materials such products are comprised. To ease in the disassembly procedure of...
Disassembly is of increasing importance in material and product recovery. However, this process is fraught with many uncertainties (e.g., variations in product structure and condition). In our previous work, such dynamics in disassembly process planning were addressed through an adaptive fuzzy system and associated algorithms. Building upon the work, this paper presents an enhanced fuzzy learning...
