Smart Coordination Requires Operators in the Loop
Authors: Peggar Ksenija , Hattinger Monika
Published: April 2024

As industrial digitalization progresses and the use and application of digital technology in industrial production increases, it is tempting to view technology as the answer and solution to all the challenges that arise in production. However, does relying solely on the power of digital technological systems do justice to the complexity of today’s shop floor? We argue that despite the fact that digital technologies have the capacity to process a considerable amount of data which outperforms human computing abilities, it is crucial to apply a more holistic view and widen the scope of analysis above and beyond the immediate application of digital technologies. Thus, this study aims to explore industrial shop floor practices to increase understanding of the planning and coordination patterns. To get a thorough understanding of how planning and coordination work today and to find new opportunities, a case study approach was adopted. Data was collected in one small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprise through shop floor observations and interviews with six employees during 2022–2023. Further, we applied a coordination framework, including coordination mechanisms, for data analysis. The results show that the three coordination mechanisms Objects and Representations, Roles, and Routines are abundantly present in the case study. Moreover, two additional coordinating mechanisms were identified, Digital Technology and Context, which include a contribution to the earlier coordination framework. We argue to put the challenges that operators face into the limelight, by involving them in the planning and coordination loop.
The Reinvention of Time Blocks
Authors: Almström Peter
Published: April 2024

To estimate a time for future production activities is complex and requires specialist knowledge if the result needs to be accurate. The Parametric Time Block (PTB) concept is proposed as a solution to efficiently and accurately determine time for assembly activities in early development phases. As a part of a design science approach is the concept tested at two case companies. The result of the application is very promising with a dramatic efficiency increase for determining time of a forthcoming product. Several insights regarding both the structuring of PTBs and the design process have been drawn from the cases.
The Importance of Digitalisation in Industrialising Additive Manufacturing: Learnings from the DIDAM P2030 Project
Authors: Isaksson Ola , Brahma Arindam , Hajali Tina , Ohlsson David , Mallalieu Adam
Published: April 2024

Additive manufacturing, a technology that has evolved significantly over the last few decades, has shifted from prototyping to final product manufacturing. Despite its potential in design flexibility and customisation, its implementation in industrial ecosystems often faces challenges, especially in companies with established traditional manufacturing methods. This paper explores additive manufacturing beyond the printing process, drawing insights from the DIDAM project in Swedish manufacturing companies. It maps the advantages of additive manufacturing to external factors influencing its success such as digital infrastructure. This mapping yields “risk factors” for its implementation. These factors are based on empirical observations from the DIDAM project to identify potential failure modes, assess risks, and provide a snapshot view of critical issues. This objective evaluation aims to support managers in evaluating the risks associated with additive manufacturing’s integration into a company’s manufacturing ecosystem, based on empirical findings in industrial cases as reported in the DIDAM Digital Model Guide (Digital Model Guide, 2023).
What Not to Do: VR Implementation Teams and the Barriers That Inhibit Them
Authors: Sauter Barrett , Granlund Anna , Badasjane Viktoria , Ahlskog Mats , Bruch Jessica
Published: April 2024

Implementation of VR into NPD processes requires a coordinated effort from within the manufacturing organization. However, the knowledge to carry this out successfully is still quite limited within research as well as within manufacturing organizations, leading to failed pilot projects and a waste of resources. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to identify barriers that inhibit VR implementation. A multiple case study has been carried out focusing on two VR implementation attempts within a single manufacturing site. The results identify four specific roles and their responsibilities within the VR implementation teams: Key driver, gatekeeper, key user, and general user. The results further identify the barriers experienced within the VR implementation attempts.
Do Manufacturing Companies’ Key Performance Indicators Support Circularity? – An Explorative Study on Swedish Manufacturing Companies
Authors: Hussmo Daniel , Skärin Filip
Published: April 2024

Manufacturing companies today are facing a grand challenge to become more sustainable. One way this can be achieved is through circularity, which can support companies in creating a regenerative system by closing and narrowing loops of material and energy. To strive towards becoming more circular, companies can deploy key performance indicators (KPI:s) that are able to communicate the strategic direction of the company. Although KPI:s have received significant attention related to sustainability, it still remains to be seen how they can be used to support circularity. By analysing the sustainability reports of 20 of the most sustainable companies in Sweden, this paper presents a current state if manufacturing companies’ KPI:s support circularity. In total, 469 KPI:s were extracted from the reports, which were then grouped into themes and connected to if they help companies to Reduce, Reuse, or Recycle resources. The analysis showed that a majority of the KPI:s used support Reduce, whereas significantly fewer support Reuse and Recycle. It is further seen that a disconnect between the strategic intent and the KPI:s used within the companies exist, where all companies highlight to different extent that circularity is of importance and something they work with, but the KPI:s presented are not connected to this. The paper further presents some ways forward to help manufacturing companies in their endeavour to become more circular, as well as discusses avenues for future research.
Remanufacturing Components Using Twin Transition – An Exploratory Study in the Heavy-Duty Vehicle Industry
Authors: Leberruyer Nicolas , Agerskans Natalie , Elvin Malin , Chirumalla Koteshwar
Published: April 2024

Remanufacturing is a life cycle renewal process by which previously used products such as vehicle components can be maintained and rebuilt. Although knowledge in remanufacturing processes is advanced from a scientific perspective, many traditional technology-driven manufacturing companies are facing challenges related to remanufacturing of various components in their specific industry. An underlying reason is that existing components have been sold for many years, and it is unclear what modifications should be made to the manufacturing process to accommodate both new and remanufactured products. Furthermore, it is unclear what organizational changes such as culture and training of operators are required. At the same time, the manufacturing industry is undergoing a digital transformation. It is therefore relevant to investigate how digitalization and sustainability practices can be combined, commonly referred to as Twin Transition. The purpose of this paper is to explore how a manufacturing company can approach a change towards remanufacturing of components using Twin Transition. This is accomplished by using a qualitative-based case study method at a large manufacturing company in the heavy-duty vehicle industry. The data collection method involved workshops following a SWOT analysis and rich picturing approach. The results from the rich picturing workshop identified four main themes to facilitate remanufacturing. The SWOT analysis identified 20 key aspects related to facilitate remanufacturing. Finally, the paper concludes by proposing five key enablers for achieving remanufacturing using Twin Transition.
Supporting the Transformation to Access-Based Business Models in a Circular Economy with a Practical Model for Calculating the Costs of the Provider
Authors: Vogt Duberg Johan , Sakao Tomohiko
Published: April 2024

In a transformation to becoming more circular, many original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are investigating the potential of transferring product ownership from the user to the provider, thus enabling access-based business models. Such a new model also makes the product life cycle cost borne by the provider, meaning that the OEM gains an interest in reducing the life cycle cost and prolonging the life cycle for its own benefit. In this study, a case OEM is in such a transformation and postpones the end-of-life through refurbishment and remanufacturing. However, to launch the access-based business model, the OEM needs to understand its new cash flows. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to show how an OEM has been supported by a model for calculating the product life cycle costs when transforming to an access-based business model. Through applying transdisciplinary research, a calculation model was developed in close collaboration with an OEM to calculate and visualise the product life cycle costs. The study also shows how the remanufacturing cost can be estimated based on existing repair and maintenance data. Furthermore, the importance of developing decision-making insights to persuade upper management that the new circular practices can provide boosted profitability is highlighted.
Integrating Smart Production Logistics with Network Diagrams: A Framework for Data Visualization
Authors: Jeong Yongkuk , Flores-García Erik , Bae Juhee , Wiktorsson Magnus
Published: April 2024

This paper introduces a framework that integrates smart production logistics (SPL) with network diagrams. This integration enhances visibility in the material and information flow within the manufacturing sector, thereby adding value through data visualization. Drawing from a detailed case study in the automotive industry, we outline the essential components of network diagrams that are tailored to depict spatial-temporal data linked with material handling processes in an SPL context. This integrated approach presents managers with a new tool for optimizing planning and executing tasks related to the transport of materials and information. Furthermore, while the framework brings about significant technological progress, it also emphasizes the managerial implications of SPL data visualization. In particular, it highlights its potential to foster informed decision-making, resource optimization, and strategic forecasting. The paper also discusses prospective research avenues, stressing the importance of dynamic diagrams that decode complex patterns from digital data and the incorporation of sustainability metrics in SPL assessments.

Published: April 2024

The integration of virtual reality (VR) laboratories into welding education presents an array of potential advantages. It can be used at campus or in distance, and it offers an alternative when access to traditional laboratories is challenging. The economic benefits, including savings on material preparation and energy costs, along with the environmental, health and safety advantages of mitigating exposure to welding fumes, arc radiation, and electrical hazards, add further value and contribute to sustainability in welding education. The work presented here is an example of the integration of education in the areas of welding and informatics and research on immersive learning. A multidisciplinary team worked on the development of an immersive learning environment, including virtual laboratory areas for welding processes as well as for microstructural inspection of welds. During the project, this learning environment, and the contained virtual laboratories, have been implemented by the researchers with the support from IT students, and tested, and improved with the feedback provided by students in welding technology, materials science, and manufacturing courses. Overall, more than twenty students from Informatics have been involved throughout the project, resulting in five bachelor theses, three master theses, three course projects in Immersive computing, and two course projects focusing on web development. The involvement of IT students has not only supported the development of the virtual learning environment, but it has also created new avenues for future research and developments in immersive computing.
Does the Improvement in AI Tools Necessitate a Different Approach to Engineering Education?
Authors: Baalsrud Hauge Jannicke , Jeong Yongkuk
Published: April 2024

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the manufacturing sector introduces new challenges and demands for the engineering workforce in the evolving European economy. This paper investigates how advancements in AI tools, especially in manufacturing, necessitate a shift in engineering education to equip graduates with relevant skills and ethical understanding. While AI is not new to manufacturing, its ongoing development and increased accessibility bring forth fresh challenges related to required competencies and ethical considerations. Furthermore, this work explores the potential of incorporating recent AI tools, such as ChatGPT and other generative adversarial networks, into engineering education. This is illustrated through a case study of a master’s level digitalization course. In this course, AI tools aimed to help students bridge their programming knowledge gaps and educate them on ethical AI use, providing a model adaptable to lifelong learning courses in the field. This inquiry also addresses the broader concerns related to AI misuse in academic settings and the subsequent difficulties in plagiarism detection and accurate learning outcome assessment. The discussion does not argue against AI adoption but emphasizes managing its inadvertent impacts on the industry and society. By integrating emerging technologies and their ethical use into the curriculum, the engineering education system can better align with the shifting demands of the workforce in an increasingly digitalized manufacturing landscape.
The EU Enlargement as a Tool for the Transformation of the Serbia-Kosovo Conflict After 2008
Authors: Marošková Tereza
Published: April 2024

The objective of this paper is to analyse the impact and influence of the EU on the Serbia-Kosovo conflict after 2008 via the Serbian integration process. The author employs the analytical framework for studying the impact of the European integration and association on border conflicts. According to this framework, the impact of the EU on the conflict was both direct and indirect. The indirect impact was present in the pro-European orientation of the governments after 2008. But conditionality, as a direct tool, proved essential for the conflict transformation. The EU has used various phases of the integration process as rewards for progress in the dialogue between Serbia and Kosovo to de-escalate the conflict. This confirms that the enlargement policy is the most effective foreign policy tool that the EU has at its disposal.
The Discourse of the Egyptian January 25th Revolution
Authors: Černý Karel
Published: April 2024

This qualitative empirical study deals with the Egyptian revolutionarydiscourse published on Twitter by the revolutionaries from the so-calledFacebook generation during the January 25th revolution. Their Twitteraccounts have been analysed using methods based on grounded theory. Asa result, nine general categories that they work with have been identified(nationalism, pan-Arabism, historical mission, national unity, nationalpolarization, moral superiority, civil society, Mubarak as a scapegoat, anduncertainity). We also identified the relations among them and the maingeneral categories of the discourse: secular nationalism, dignity andempowerment. The framing of the revolutionary action in terms of secularnationalism and dignity (empowerment) has motivated the revolutionaries.These two narratives provided powerful meanings for their actions andrepertoires of contention, which would be highly improbable without such aframing. At the same time such narratives represent a culture of resistancerather than a coherent ideology. The revolutionaries’ culture of resistance isnot building on notions of political Islam, but on the former regime’sdiscourses of secular nationalism and citizenship (the civil state). Howeverthe revolutionaries used such concepts that were produced by the regimeagainst the regime itself.
An Analysis of the Electronic Jihad's Activity in the Social Media Environment
Authors: Střítecký Vít , Špelda Petr
Published: April 2024

The present text offers an analysis of the electronic jihad strategies based upon the Twitter campaigns of the Somali jihadi-Salafi group Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mudjahideen. The text builds on a post-structuralist conceptualization of temporality, which, when met with virtual environments, becomes a key source of power. The text first introduces a theoretical argument discussing the influence of temporality on the international system in order to apply the resulting conclusions towards an empirical analysis of the revisionist discourse disseminated by the selected extra-systemic actor. The aim of the text is to hint at the analytic potential of certain data collection methods that are employable in the environments of virtual social networks and consequently to demonstrate one of the possible methods of interpretation of such data. This method is inspired by a specific set of expressive devices which, in an apt way, connect the methodological approach with the interpretation of the revisionist world order discourse. The presented analysis in the context of the specific examined terrorist campaign illustrates a revisionist dynamic that is accelerated by the virtual domain and aims at disrupting the normative foundation of the Westphalian order.

Conflicting Borders in the Post-Soviet Space
The Russian World and Neo-Eurasianism
Authors: Kurfürst Jaroslav
Published: April 2024

Borders, sovereignty and power in the post-Soviet space occupy the center of the Russian geopolitical discourse, which has been striving for the whole quarter century from the collapse of the USSR for its political reconceptualization and reterritorialization. Two key civilizationist concepts, the Russian World and neo-Eurasianism, play prominent roles in the Russian formal, imagined and practical geopolitics. The two concepts have different geneses and accents but also many identical characteristics. The article focusses on the contrast of the two concepts, and documents their differences and similarities from the conceptual-structural, cognitive, geographical and ideological point of view as well as from the perspective of their practical expression in Russian domestic and foreign policy. The comparison concludes with the finding that both concepts represent complementary instruments of Russian internal consolidation and the building of the Russian sphere of influence in the post-Soviet space through the mobilization of various communities and ideological patterns.

The article is based on a presumption that the relations between theArmenian and the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic are substantially differentfrom the relations between other de facto states and their patron states.Thus, they can not be explained in the same manner as the relationsbetween Russia and its three “client” de facto states – Abkhazia, SouthOssetia, and Transnistria. Also, the concept of kin-state does not seem to besu"ciently elaborated to explain the Armenian-Karabakhi relations. Theserelations, in comparison with other similar cases, such as the Turkish-NorthCypriot relations, feature a whole range of highly specific features, above allthe dominance of informal institutions and practices. The article identifiesthis complex systems of mutual relations and introduces the term informalasymmetric confederation to describe it. According to this model, therelations between the Armenian and the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic arebased on a common ethno-cultural framework, mutually mingling politicalelites and a handful of formal and, most importantly, a whole range ofinformal mechanisms, which enable both entities to achieve political deals,as well as to mutually influence each other’s internal decision makingprocesses.
Phantom Borders – Historical Conditions of Political and Socio-Economic Cleavages of Contemporary Ukrain
Authors: Jelen Libor , Dostál Petr
Published: April 2024

The term phantom border or region is used in current political-geographicliterature to describe situations in which the original political boundaries ina region are abolished de jure, but still appear in the form of different socialand political cleavages within the population, even though the historicalcontinuity of the settlement may have already been disturbed. Ukraine is avery good case for studying this effect for its complicated territorialdevelopment. The contribution analyses historical conditions of currentpolitical, cultural and socio-economic structures in Ukraine. It usesstatistical tests to verify the occurrence of the so-called phantom boundaryeffect – whether the original historical boundaries correspond to the spatialpatterns of current political and socioeconomic differences of the Ukrainiansociety. The analysis partially confirmed the existence of phantomboundaries in Ukraine’s political and cultural-demographic aspects, but in anumber of economic characteristics the phantom effect could not be found.
Russia’s Relations Towards the West and the States in Post-Soviet Europe in the Works of Dugin, Solzhenitsyn and Narochnitskaya
Authors: Naxera Vladimír
Published: April 2024

For Russia, the collapse of the USSR and the rise of a number of independent states meant a return to the territorial scale held by the country several hundred years ago. Today, this is the subject of extensive political, social, and intellectual discussions. Over the course of the post-Soviet development, we can observe a whole range of political representatives, scholars, and publicly influential individuals who call for the expansion of the Russian territory into regions previously ruled by Moscow, which is a demand that they support with a wide array of arguments. These are authors whose ideological backgrounds often differ; their resulting aims, however, are not dissimilar – their basic aim is to expand the contemporary Russian territory. The goal of this paper is to provide a comparative analysis of the ways in which three selected publicly influential individuals (Natalya Narochnitskaya, Alexander Dugin, and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn) deal with the position of independent states in post-Soviet Europe. This paper examines the manner in which these authors evaluate the existence of these independent states and what motivations and legitimizing factors they use to support their demand for Moscow to expand both its influence and the present borders of the Russian Federation.

International Relations Reseach at the Semiperiphery
Authors: Růžička Jan
Published: April 2024

The article considers the 50th anniversary of the journal Mezinárodní vztahyfrom the perspective of Immanuel Wallerstein’s world-systems theory. Itshows how the journal and its establishment and development reflect thestructural position of the Czechoslovak/Czech International Relationsresearch at the semiperiphery. The concept of semiperiphery captures boththe place of a political community (Czechoslovakia/Czech Republic) in theglobal world-system and the position of a research community(International Relations) within the global scientific field. The article posesthree questions. First, is it possible, despite structural constraints, toproduce world class research in the Czech context? Second, are there anyadvantages stemming from the semiperipheral position? Third, does theCzech research community have an exceptional role to play with regard toany questions and topics? The article argues that it is possible to produceworld class research in the Czech Republic because there are someadvantages to the semiperipheral position. The Czech research communityhas a key role to play in shaping social and political debates within theCzech political community.
European Integration as the Main Topic of the Czech Discipline of International Relations
Authors: Braun Mats , Karlas Jan
Published: April 2024

In this article, we reflect on the research on European integration in thecontext of the Czech discipline of International Relations (IR). We payattention to those academic institutions that concentrate on IR and,simultaneously, on European integration. We reach three main findings inthe article: 1) a number of Czech institutions and scholars that studied theinternational dimension of the European integration were also concernedwith the domestic level of integration; 2) in the Czech environment the IRdiscipline is marked by a distinct cleavage between the theoretically andmethodologically informed parts of the research on European integrationand its descriptively based part; 3) besides International Security, the topicof European integration dominated the Czech IR discipline.

Comments on International Legal Aspects of the Crimean Question in the UN
Authors: Malenovský Jiří
Published: April 2024

The article analyses three main elements of the Crimean question which aredirectly connected with the UN Charter as discussed and voted on in theSecurity Council and in the General Assembly, namely the problems of theself-determination requested by the Crimean population, the unilateralmodification of the internationally recognized border between Ukraine andRussia and the veto put by Russia on the vote on a draft resolutiondeclaring the invalidity of a referendum organized in Crimea in March 2014.Despite the fact that international law does exceptionally tolerate secessionas a form of self-determination, the secession of Crimea did not satisfy thenecessary international legal conditions for accepting a secession.International law does not allow a unilateral modification of aninternational border between two existing states, but nevertheless, that iswhat happened in Crimea. Finally, Russia vetoed the above mentioned draftresolution in spite of Article 27 [3] of the Charter, which requires the partiesto a dispute, when they are members of the Security Council, to abstainfrom voting in the Council on their dispute. The draft resolution on Crimeahas to be considered as applying Chapter VI of the Charter, with Russiabeing a party to a dispute on the status of Crimea with Ukraine. Therefore,Russia had no right to vote on the draft,
