ABSTRACT

Smart manufacturing involves many innovative requirements: a tight connection between physical and digital systems (the cyber-physical world), the capability of managing and processing in nearly real time very huge amount of data (Big Data), the ability of managing production plans in a very flexible way with reference to strongly automated and interconnected production lines (M2M). Further, the interactions between man and machine (H2M) change, to enhance the process/product quality.
All these requirements ask for new approaches for measurement systems and techniques in order to make effective the capability of transforming data into useful information for decision makers.
All the steps of the measurement process are involved: transducer selection and installation, sensor calibration, system modelling and its interaction with sensors, sensor fusion and networking, data acquisition and data processing methods and algorithms, measurement uncertainty management. Management of measurement systems and validation techniques are also noteworthy in this scenario.


ABOUT THE ORGANIZER

Giulio D’Emilia is associate professor at DIIIE (Department of Industrial Engineering and Informatics and of Economics) of the L’Aquila University (ITALY), where he is responsible of the Labs for mechanical and thermal measurements.
Prof. Giulio D’Emilia is also responsible for L’Aquila University of the project “Lead The future”, a national initiative for dissemination of procedures and best practices of theoretic and experimental procedure in the field of environmental and social sustainability (Sustainability and Society 4.0)

RESEARCH ACTIVITY
Prof. Giulio D’Emilia and his research group (composed by environmental, mechanical, managerial and information engineers) devote their activity to multidisciplinary and integrated applications.
He is author or coauthor of more than 110 papers published on international and Italian journals, international and national conferences.
In these papers the main results of his research activity are described, mainly concerning the following topics:

  • Measurement of displacement and vibrations, by means of innovative non contact displacement sensors;
  • measurement of temperature and flowrate in industrial applications;
  • measurements for environmental monitoring (innovative geotechnical probes, monitoring systems of emissions in atmosphere, new probes base on fiber optic sensors, ….)
  • vibration measurement for condition monitoring of tool machines, automatic operation stages of production lines, civil structures;
  • calibration of transducers of different quantities of mechanical and thermal interest and traceability of measurements;
  • uncertainty evaluation of experimental data of complex measurement systemsinvolving sensor fusion and interaction of physical modelling and experimental data processing (industrial and environmental);
  • new sensors development for the quality control of product and process;
  • data processing techniques of experimental data, in particular of distributed multi-sensor systems;
  • tool development for support to the decision making based on experimental data;

He got some experience in case studies related to the development of certified management systems for quality, environment, safety, food safety and maintenance. New engineering approaches are deeply studied, like lean manufacturing, six sigma, lean six sigma, ...
