Flexibility is one of the most important aspects of production systems. In this paper, different approaches to this subject are summarized and it is argued that various aspects of flexibility can be unified in a hierarchical structure. A simple, one-machine system is used to obtain the 'volume flexibility' from the 'machine flexibility' in the context of the hierarchical structure of flexibility types.

Design of a variable five-axes adjustable configuration robot manipulator YUCEL, AS; Ersak, Aydın (1994-04-14) A robot manipulator design is presented in this paper supplying a few kinematical configurations in a single structure which is in the mean time, reconfigurable for given tasks and hence making the level of flexibility and adaptability much higher for changing working environments
Analysis of price-only and revenue sharing contracts in a reverse supply chain Biazaran, Majid; Bakal, İsmail Serdar; Department of Industrial Engineering (2016) Original Equipment Manufacturers prefer to fully or partially outsource take-back activities, such as used product acquisition and handling, since dealing with reverse flow of goods is not their core competency. However, outsourcing may cause the supply chain to suffer from local optimization that results from decentralization. In such cases, different forms of contracts are offered to reduce the effects of decentralization. In this study, we consider a two-echelon reverse supply chain where a remanufacture...
Breadth and Depth of Main Technology Fields: An Empirical Investigation Using Patent Data Özman, Müge (Science And Technology Policies Research Center, Middle East Technical University (Ankara, Turkey), 2007) Recently work on technological change has emphasized the importance and implications of di§erent knowledge bases among industries in terms of innovative potential. In some industries, products and processes have become more complex, as well as there appears to be increased convergence in some market segments. Although increasing attention has been given to features of knowledge bases, there have been limited empirical research on how to measure them. In this paper a method is proposed to measure empirically...
Analysis and compensation of mass loading effect of accelerometers on tool point FRF measurements for chatter stability predictions Özşahin, Orkun; Özgüven, Hasan Nevzat (Elsevier BV, 2010-06-01) Chatter is one of the major problems in machining resulting in poor surface quality and reduced productivity. Stability diagrams can be used to determine chatter-free process conditions yielding high productivity. For generation of stability diagrams, frequency response functions (FRF) at the tool tip are needed to be used in stability models. Impact tests involving accelerometers are commonly used in FRF measurements. Although mass of a typical accelerometer used in these measurements is extremely small co...
Evaluation of the Effect of Functional Similarities on Development Effort Top, Ozden Ozcan; Tunalilar, Seckin; Demirörs, Onur (2008-09-05) Although functional size is the primary input for effort and cost estimation formulas, the relation between functional size and development effort does not always hold in practice. Calculating the magnitude of functional similarity is perceived as a partial solution to overcome this problem. In this study we applied different approaches to identify the magnitude of functional similarity in five projects. The applicability of these approaches is evaluated by observing the impact of functional similarity on e...
