IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics
|April 2, 2019
Summary
This study introduces a new method for optimizing product disassembly, considering resource limits and component order. The approach effectively balances energy use, time, and profit for better recycling efficiency.
Area of Science:
- Industrial Ecology
- Operations Research
- Sustainable Manufacturing
Background:
- Effective product disassembly is crucial for environmental and economic benefits, improving recovery efficiency and reducing negative impacts.
- Existing disassembly planning methods often neglect sequence-dependent factors and resource constraints, limiting their practical application.
- Optimizing disassembly is complex due to the increasing number of product components.
Purpose of the Study:
- To address the limitations of current methods by developing a multiobjective optimization model for sequence-dependent, resource-constrained disassembly.
- To incorporate disassembly precedence constraints into the optimization model.
- To minimize energy consumption and disassembly time while maximizing disassembly profit.
Main Methods:
- Formulated a novel multiobjective optimization model considering sequence-dependent disassembly, resource constraints, and precedence requirements.
- Utilized energy consumption as a key metric for disassembly efficiency alongside traditional criteria.
- Proposed a lexicographic multiobjective scatter search (SS) method to solve the complex optimization problem.
Main Results:
- The proposed lexicographic multiobjective SS method demonstrated effectiveness in solving the complex optimization problem.
- Comparison with linear weight SS and genetic algorithms showed the proposed method provides superior solutions.
- The method achieved better results in a shorter execution time, meeting structural and resource constraints.
Conclusions:
- The developed optimization model and SS method are effective for sequence-dependent, resource-constrained disassembly.
- This approach enhances recovery efficiency and reduces environmental impact in industrial product recycling.
- The findings offer a practical solution for optimizing disassembly processes in complex manufacturing systems.

Frequency-dependent Selection
23.4K
When the fitness of a trait is influenced by how common it is (i.e., its frequency) relative to different traits within a population, this is referred to as frequency-dependent selection. Frequency-dependent selection may occur between species or within a single species. This type of selection can either be positive—with more common phenotypes having higher fitness—or negative, with rarer phenotypes conferring increased fitness.

Disassembly of Intermediate Filaments
2.6K
Intermediate filaments (IFs) do not undergo spontaneous disassembly. Enzymes, kinases, and phosphatases add and remove phosphates from specific sites to regulate their disassembly. The IF concentration in the cytoplasm also regulates the disassembly. If the concentration crosses a threshold, it activates the protein kinases in the vicinity, allowing the phosphorylation of IFs.

Constraints and Statical Determinacy
966
In structural engineering, the equilibrium of a system is not only determined by its equations of equilibrium but also with the help of constraints. Constraints refer to restrictions on the motion of a system. The proper combinations of constraints can minimize the total number of constraints needed to maintain a system in mechanical equilibrium. When this happens, the system is said to be statically determinate. For such systems, the unknown reaction supports can be estimated using equilibrium...

Cable Subjected to Its Own Weight
789
Overhead power transmission lines rely on cables to carry electricity across large distances. To ensure the stability and functionality of these lines, it is crucial to understand the shape and tension experienced by the cables under the influence of their weight.
A generalized loading function is employed to analyze a cable subjected to its own weight. This function considers the force acting along the cable's arc length rather than its projected length, providing a more accurate...

The most common and easiest way to display the relationship between two variables, x and y, is a scatter plot. A scatter plot shows the direction of a relationship between the variables. A clear direction happens when there is either:

What is Natural Selection?
126.6K
Natural selection is an evolutionary process in which individuals with survival-promoting traits reproduce at higher rates. These favorable traits become more common within a population or species. Naturally selected traits initially arise via random genetic mutations. In order for selection to occur, there must be variation within a population, the trait controlling the variation must be heritable, and there must be an evolutionary advantage for variation in the trait.
