@article{922025, note = {Includes index.}, author = {Gupta, Kapil. and Gupta, Munish Kumar.}, url = {http://library.usi.edu/record/922025}, title = {Optimization of Manufacturing Processes /}, abstract = {This book provides a detailed understanding of optimization methods as they are implemented in a variety of manufacturing, fabrication and machining processes. It covers the implementation of statistical methods, multi-criteria decision making methods and evolutionary techniques for single and multi-objective optimization to improve quality, productivity, and sustainability in manufacturing. It reports on the theoretical aspects, special features, recent research and latest development in the field. Intelligent Manufacturing is a valuable source of information for researchers and practitioners, as it fills the gap where no dedicated book is available on intelligent manufacturing/modeling and optimization in manufacturing. Readers will develop an understanding of the implementation of statistical and evolutionary techniques for modeling and optimization in manufacturing.}, recid = {922025}, pages = {1 online resource (viii, 232 pages)}, }
