NTNU - Production Management Research Group

Det ble et vellykket kickoff seminar i KSP prosjektet TWinYards - Scaling up for offshore wind at Norwegian yards: Efficient operations through digital twins and artificial intelligence. Prosjektet har fokus på smart logistikk, og skal utvikle kunnskap om hvordan man oppnår ressurseffektivitet og flyt i den norske verftsindustri ved å utnytte digitale tvillinger og kunstig intelligens. Vi samlet alle partnere på Scandic Lerkendal, for å få igang prosjektet som skal pågå i de neste fire årene. Dette var institutt for Maskinteknikk og Produksjon (NTNU), institutt for Marin Teknologi (NTNU), SINTEF Digital, SINTEF Manufacturing, Ulstein AS, Brunvoll AS, og Aker Solutions Verdal. I tillegg deltok vår internasjonale partner Cardiff Business School via teams. Prosjektet skal bygge kunnskap, og flere master og PhD-studenter deltok på seminaret, og fikk inspirasjon til sine prosjekter. Det ble gjennomført en rekke gode foredrag, og interessante diskusjoner under seminaret, spesielt vil jeg trekke frem bedriftene som ga gode innspill til forskningen vi skal gjøre framover. Lars Lühr Olsen snakket om "IOT at Ulstein Yard and the potential for Digital Twins for better operations", Knut Ola Tverdal snakket om "Digitalization and PPC at Brunvoll – potential AI/DT applications", Atle Dengerud snakket om Aker og "Challenges with visual management of production flow and examples of solutions".      

What a full day for the NTNU - Production Management Research Group On Tuesday, February 11th, we had the pleasure of hosting thesis poster presentations from our master’s students. They showcased their research progress, engaged in insightful discussions with peers and our group members, and received valuable feedback to improve their work. But the day was not solely about research; we exchanged academic debates for gliding on ice at our second annual ice skating event in Trondheim Center! It was an ideal way to foster team spirit and enjoy the season together. #Logistics40Lab #logistics #production #activities #research
