Consequently, the Wire and Cable Industry (W&amp;CI) must urgently transition to Green Manufacturing (GM) to address these environmental challenges and achieve sustainable development. Numerous studies have focused on GM in large-scale enterprises, particularly within the context of Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM). However, most perspectives are top-down, with few studies examining GM strategies from a bottom-up approach, especially regarding the supply chain's crucial role in addressing manufacturers’ pressing needs. This study employs a modified Z-DEMATEL (Z number-based Decision Making and Trial Evaluation Laboratory) technique to evaluate and determine strategic dimensions and criteria. The Z-number enhances conventional fuzzy numbers, increasing the reliability of expert evaluations and reflecting the confidence of the evaluation environment under uncertainty. The findings indicate that “managerial support,” “corporate image,” “legal compliance,” “green design”, and “liability risk” are the top five important criteria for GM. On other hand, the modified Z-DEMATEL technique demonstrates that an Influential Network Relation Map (INRM) provides decision-makers with a quick understanding of the causality between criteria, offering insights into GM strategy. By evaluating different manufacturing practices in the wire and cable industry using a hybrid MCDM model, companies can identify improvement opportunities and make informed decisions about the most sustainable practices from a holistic perspective.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55975,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Industrial Information Integration","volume":"44 ","pages":"Article 100761"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142929490","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Automatic assembly is one critical process at stake due to the inherent complexity of the number of parts, their shapes, and the randomness of their initial orientations and positions upon arrival at the station. This research introduces a digital twin framework with an information integration layer designed to enhance the flexibility and efficiency of multi-robot operating systems by collaborating with operator skills, addressing the demand for personalized production. The digital twin model allows operators to remotely implant their skills to oversee the assembly process and to control and train the multi-robot operations through an immersive virtual reality interface upon the arrival of new orders without disrupting the current operations of the physical system. The virtual world allows simulations of the algorithms for collision-free movement and task optimization among multiple robots. Besides, image processing techniques are employed to identify parts arriving in random orientations at the station, providing flexibility during the physical assembly phase. According to the investigation, integrating virtual reality and real-time control challenges data processing and requires robust networking and computational resources. This study contributes to multi-robot operations by providing a scalable and adaptable solution by collaborating with operator skills that enhance both the planning and execution phases of complex assembly processes to new product specifications and changes in design.

This paper aims to evaluate the factors persuading the BT adoption and also to assess the possible application areas for the adoption of BT. Implementation of the BT process considers multiple criteria and alternatives with uncertain information; therefore, it can be considered as an uncertain multi-criteria decision-making problem. In this context, a hybrid approach is proposed based on the criteria interaction through inter-criteria correlation (CRITIC) and the complex proportional assessment (COPRAS) methods with interval-valued q-rung orthopair fuzzy set (IVq-ROFS) named as the “IVq-ROF-CRITIC<img>COPRAS” framework. In this approach, the significance values of the factors are computed through novel score function-based CRITIC model, whereas the CRITIC-based COPRAS model is employed to rank different domains/application areas for the adoption of BT under IVq-ROFSs environment. In this regard, a novel score function is introduced with its desirable characteristics. Further, the developed model is executed on a case study of BT adoption considering 14 factors, which confirms the efficiency and applicability of introduced approach. Based on the results, the healthcare BT alternative is most appropriate among the others. To evaluate its permanence, sensitivity analysis with regard to various ratings of decision strategic coefficient is presented under IVq-ROFS context. The strength of the developed approach is emphasized by comparing it with some of the former models under the context of IVq-ROFSs.

This innovative approach advances the development of a globally sustainable CLSC by focusing on the integration of economic, environmental, and social factors, i.e., the triple bottom line of sustainability. Specifically, we address environmental concerns through the introduction of carbon taxation and enhance social sustainability by exploring the impact of advertising on customer satisfaction. To further refine this model, we classify customers based on their sustainability engagement and apply a fuzzy programming approach to account for uncertainty in customer demand influenced by advertising. To solve this complex global CLSC model, we conduct a thorough analysis of constraints and develop a robust Lagrangian relaxation reformulation. While the initial solution may result in infeasibility, we propose a heuristic algorithm that ensures feasible solutions. Our efficient Lagrangian-based heuristic, incorporating an adaptive strategy, is capable of solving large-scale networks with an approximate 10 % optimality gap.
