A Lean Manufacturing Approach for Optimization of Lithium-Ion Battery Supply Chains Management
Abstract: The rise of electric vehicles (EVs), energized by the rapid uptake from customers, is propelling an explosion in demand for -running efficient and economical lithium-ion battery supply chains. In answering the call, this paper delves into the application of lean manufacturing principles to optimize lithium-ion battery (LIB) supply chain management by significantly decreasing waste, lead times, and enhancing overall production efficiency. Lean tools are applied for the analysis of battery …

Carbon-Al Synergy: Investigation of Fiber Stacking and Orientation on the Mechanical Properties of Al-CFRP Metal Matrix Composites
Abstract: The current study examines the mechanical behaviour of Aluminum-Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (Al-CFRP) composites fabricated using compression moulding technique, a novel approach combining lightweight aluminium’s ductility with CFRP’s high strength-to-weight ratio. The polymer composites were fabricated by stacking aluminum alloy sheet of 0.5mm thickness and pre-impregnated by 12 layers of carbon fiber cloth of 200 gsm, with epoxy resin between layers, followed by consolidation under controlled temperature and pressure in …

Codal Validation and Optimization of Gantry Girders Under Variable Wheelbase and Impact Loads: A Review of Analytical, Numerical, and Codal Approaches
Abstract: Gantry girders serve as critical structural elements in industrial facilities such as steel plants, workshops, and heavy manufacturing units, where electric overhead traveling (EOT) cranes operate. The design of these girders is governed by stringent codal provisions to ensure safety under bending, shear, and deflection. However, discrepancies between codal predictions, analytical formulations, and finite element analysis (FEA) results, particularly under variable wheelbase and dynamic impact loads, have been widely reported. …

Comparison of RCC and Steel Composite Structure subjected to Static and Dynamic Loads
Abstract: Steel has long been used for the construction projects but the use was limited to a certain height because of the buckling and bending becomes critical after a particular height.The RCC structure after extensive use and research proved to be much more economical and concrete as a construction material covered the whole urban jungle as we witness today. The hustle for the betterment of the construction industry particularly to provide …

Strength Analysis of Topside Supports on FPSO Hull
Abstract: AbstractThis paper is performed to determine strength and endurance capacity of topside supports and underlying hull structure on Floating Production Storage Offloading (FPSO) platform. Support stools shall be installed on every intersection between longitudinal bulkheads and transverse frames. Strictly, the analysis is relevant to topside supports and hull structure in the mid-ship area away from the moon-pool, but modification of the results to be representative for the moon-pool area is …
