1. CHARACTERIZING SUSTAINABILITY FOR MANUFACTURING PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT
Topic: Green Manufacturing
Published: 8/17/2012
Authors: Mahesh Mani, Jatinder Madan, Jae Hyun Lee, Kevin W Lyons, Satyandra Kumar Gupta
Abstract: Manufacturing industries lack the measurement science and the needed information base to measure and effectively compare performances of manufacturing processes, resources and associated services with respect to sustainability. The current use of ...

2. A COMPUTER AIDED SYSTEM FOR SUSTAINABILITY ANALYSIS FOR DIE-CASTING PROCESS
Topic: Green Manufacturing
Published: 6/15/2012
Authors: Jatinder Madan, Mahesh Mani, Princepal Singh, Amrik Singh
Abstract: Currently available sustainability analysis systems for the die-casting process primarily depend on the material properties and do not account for process information. As a result they are unable to assess or compare the sustainability of parts made ...

5. Information Model for Disassembly for Reuse, Recycling, and Remanufacturing
Series: NIST Interagency/Internal Report (NISTIR)
Report Number: 7772
Topic: Green Manufacturing
Published: 4/13/2011
Author: Shaw C Feng
Abstract: Disassembly process is an essential activity in the mid and end of a product’s service life cycle. Maintenance is a mid product life activity, which involves disassembly, cleaning, repair, replace, inspection, and reassembly. Remanufacturing, reuse, ...
