- Description: This paper describes research conducted on the design of a new automatic fish sorting system at Monash University, Australia. A concurrent mechatronics approach was implement to achieve the project's goals. Also, a technique based on digital imaging was developed for the task of identification of fish sizes. The system is being implemented in the local fish export industry, providing a low cost operation with improved productivity and reliability in the fish sorting process. A computer-based vision system is used for analysis of the fish. A new algorithm is developed to directly determine the length of fish with fast on-line real-time processing. The measurement technique is also applicable to various species. The design specifications of the vision system and the camera capture devices are also presented in this paper

- Description: This study concentrates on optimizing a multi-state weighted k-out-of-n system consisting of different types of reparable components. An optimization model is developed to decide upon both optimal redundancy allocation and best maintenance activities for reliability allocation. The optimization model is to maximize system reliability and minimize system cost simultaneously. To reach this goal, a financial view has been employed to estimate the system reliability, and combine it with system cost. The proposed model determines the number of each component type in the system, and the maintenance actions and the time at which they should be applied. Also, the model is programmed by MATLAB, and Genetic Algorithm is used to solve a practical case. (C) 2016 The Society of Manufacturing Engineers. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
