Prof. Jay Lee Keynote Topic: Trends and Recent Advances of Industrial Big Data Analytics for Smart Manufacturing Keynote Abstract: In today’s competitive business environment, companies are facing challenges in dealing with big data issues for rapid decision making for improved productivity. Many manufacturing systems are not ready to manage big data due to the lack of smart analytics tools. U.S. has been driving the Cyber-Physical-Systems (CPS), Industrial Internet, and Advanced Manufacturing Partnership (AMP) Program to advance future manufacturing. Germany is leading a transformation toward 4th Generation Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) based on Cyber-Physical Production System (CPPS). It is clear that as more predictive analytics software and embedded IoT are integrated in industrial products and manufacturing systems, predictive technologies can further intertwine intelligent algorithms with Machine-to-Machine (M2M) intelligence to predict product and production performance degradation and autonomously manage and optimize productivity and supply chain performance, The presentation will address the trends of predictive big data analytics and CPS for future industrial transformation. First, predictive analytics and Cyber-Physical System (CPS) enabled industrial systems will be introduced. Second, advanced predictive analytics technologies for self-aware industrial systems with case studies will be presented. Finally, business innovation based on industrial big data will be introduced using case studies. Biographical Sketch: Dr. Jay Lee is Ohio Eminent Scholar, L.W.

Keynote Topic: A surveillance of dynamic processes in various mechatronic systems
Keynote Abstract: Here is commonly observed a tendency of acquiring greater knowledge and skills in scope of looking for better performance of the created technical solutions. For this reason, an essence and importance of issue of dynamic processes surveillance in modern engineering systems, from the point of view of assuring the desired process performance, will be explained. A concept of mechatronic design, which includes virtual prototyping, real time simulation and real performance on the target system, is the first fundamental of scientific and practical research. The other basis is an authorial method of the optimal control at energy performance index along trajectory of the desired motion. The latter has been applied for surveillance of dynamic processes observed in continuous and discrete linear nonstationary and nonlinear systems. Moreover, the mixed method of rigid and flexible finite element is recognised as successful tool for modelling and then – is implemented towards dynamic processes surveillance. An extensive part of considerations concerns practical applications in industry. Thus the optimal control at energy performance index has been applied for a purpose of development of the methods of surveillance of various wheeled mobile platforms as strongly nonlinear systems whose motion is subject to non-holonomic constraints. The other example of potential applications concerns vibration surveillance of a robot’s manipulator having open kinematic chain. An efficiency of the surveillance has been evidenced as well as in time and frequency domain. A wide range of scientific studies and technical tasks means the problems of vibrations during conventional and high-speed cutting processes. The latter especially concerns milling of flexible and high-dimensional details. The considered results of many research and developmental projects evidenced almost whole elimination of the vibration problem in many cases. Process quality is observed to be significantly improved as well, which classifies the obtained products even as being done by finishing grinding or lapping. Short Biography: Professor Krzysztof J.

Keynote Topic: Micro/Nanomanufacturing
Keynote Abstract: Bio-inspired hierarchical micro/nanostructures have offered new functionalities and developments in optical, photoelectric, interfacial, antibacterial, catalytic and mechanical systems in a wide range of modern industries. The newly added functionalities may vary significantly with respect to the geometry and feature size of the micro/nanostructures on the primary surface of the artificial components. It leads to an emergent requirement for powerful manufacturing capability to enrich the libraries of micro/nanostructures. In general, it is still a big challenge for current manufacturing society to generate the functional structures through an efficient and flexible way. In this talk, I will introduce our recent studies on the development of the novel Diamond Milling Servo (DMS) based micro/nanomachining for the generation of hierarchical micro/nanostructures. Basic surface generation and toolpath determination principles, as well as the correspondingly developed spatial motion, modulated DMS with multi-scale manufacturing capability will be introduced in detail. Typical micro/nanostructures on both planar and freeform surfaces fabricated by the DMS technique are demonstrated through experimental cutting.

Keynote Topic: Sustainable Manufacturing Optimisation based on Big Data Enabled Intelligent Immune System Keynote Abstract: The Big Data driven approach has become a new trend for manufacturing optimisation. In this paper, an innovative Big Data enabled Intelligent Immune System (I2S) has been developed to mimic the characteristics of a biological immune system to monitor and address manufacturing dynamics over lifecycles to achieve sustainable optimisation effectively. I2S is a novel inter-disciplinary integrated system of the artificial immune mechanism, the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)-based Cyber Physical System (CPS), Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) and sustainable manufacturing scheduling optimisation algorithm to fulfil two major functions: (1) an ANNs-based algorithm and analysis tools are used to identify the abnormal energy consumption patterns of manufactured components from monitored Big Data. An intelligent immune mechanism is devised to adapt to the pattern/condition changes of machine tool systems and process dynamics; (2) a re-scheduling algorithm is triggered if abnormal manufacturing conditions are detected thereby achieving adaptive multi-objective optimisation of energy consumption and manufacturing performance. In this research, Computer Numerical Controlled (CNC) machining processes have been used for system validation via industrial deployment into multiple machine lines in European factories. For the companies, around 30% energy saving and over 50% productivity improvement have been achieved by adopting I2S. The research is sponsored by EU projects for academia-industrial partnership and collaboration conducted by researchers/engineers from EU/international universities and representative manufacturing companies in Europe.
