Most-cited papers in Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers Part B Journal of Engineering Manufacture

State-of-the-art in product-service systems

Tim Baines, Howard Lightfoot, S. Evans et al. · 1 Oct 2007

A Product-Service System (PSS) is an integrated combination of products and services. This Western concept embraces a service-led competitive strategy, environmental sustainability, and the basis to differentiate from competitors who simply offer lower priced products. This paper aims to report the state-of-the-art of PSS research by presenting a clinical review of literature currently available on…

Cloud manufacturing: a computing and service-oriented manufacturing model

Fei Tao, Zhang Li, V.C. Venkatesh et al. · 22 Aug 2011

Combining the emerged advanced technologies (such as cloud computing, ‘internet of thing’, virtualization, and service-oriented technologies, advanced computing technologies) with existing advanced manufacturing models and enterprise ‘informationization’ technologies, a new computing- and service-oriented manufacturing model, called cloud manufacturing (CMfg), is proposed. The concept, architecture, core enabling technologies, and typical characteristics of CMfg are discussed and…

Smart manufacturing: Characteristics, technologies and enabling factors

Sameer Mittal, Muztoba Ahmad Khan, David Romero et al. · 26 Oct 2017

The purpose of this article is to collect and structure the various characteristics, technologies and enabling factors available in the current body of knowledge that are associated with smart manufacturing. Eventually, it is expected that this selection of characteristics, technologies and enabling factors will help compare and distinguish other initiatives such as Industry 4.0, cyber-physical…

Assessing and comparing influencing factors of residual stresses in selective laser melting using a novel analysis method

Jean‐Pierre Kruth, Jan Deckers, Evren Yasa et al. · 8 Mar 2012

During selective laser melting, the irradiated material experiences large temperature fluctuations in a short time which causes unwanted thermal stresses. In order to assess thermal stresses in a simple and fast way, a new pragmatic method is developed, namely the bridge curvature method. The bridge curvature method is used to assess and qualitatively compare the…

Predictive maintenance, its implementation and latest trends

Sule Selcuk · 5 Jan 2016

This study covers new trends and techniques in the field of predictive maintenance, which has been superseding traditional management policies, at least in part. It also presents suggestions for how to implement a predictive maintenance programme in a factory/premise and so on. Predictive maintenance primarily involves foreseeing breakdown of the system to be maintained by…
