摘要:

This paper describes a pilot study conducted to investigate the performance of operators under paced conditions in a particular form of conveyor-paced working. The response shown by the operator is reflected grossly by a speeding-up in work rate

摘要:

The paper describes a study covering 409 workers in the assembly factory of a large Belgian automobile company. It was desired to identify the factors which contributed, in both a positive and a negative way, to the attitudes of the men toward their work. The technique adopted was a free, but standardised, interview with each man whilst working on the line with him, the research worker having previously been trained and having worked on the line as an assembler. The data were subjected to an analysis of variance, and factors at work groups lying at the extremes of the distributions are discussed, reasons for their contribution to the total variance being drawn from the interview data.

摘要:

“A note on wage incentive plans” by Morton Klein, published in an earlier issue, is discussed. His assumption that the total weekly output is predetermined is questioned and comments are made on how a wage plan can contribute to keeping the production rate constant.

摘要:

In einem vorangegangenen Artikel [Unternehmensforschung, 7 (1963), 59–64] wurde die Fliessbandfertigung eines Gutes bei stochastischer Nachfrage betrachtet. Im folgenden wird der Fall behandelt, bei dem mehrere Güler auf einem einheitlichen Typ von Fertigungsstrassen erstellt werden künnen. Die Nachfrage nach den einzelnen Gütern ist ebenfalls stochastisch: In Ergänzung zu dem früher behandelten Fall hat man noch Umstellungskosten zu berücksichtigen

摘要:

This paper offers a heuristic algorithm for the allocation of resources both in physical space and in time. The algorithm, to be implemented by a computer, will seek out good, if not optimum, combinations of items, namely, schedules and arrangements with respect to more than one payoff function. The algorithm has application in such diverse fields as the time scheduling budget allocations, courses of study in training programs, transportation, interdependent projects, and allocation in two or three dimensional space of production, service and/or warehousing facilities.

摘要:

The paper is concerned with a special case of the silo problem, namely when it is sought to divide optimally a container into two compartments used for storing two commodities separately. The two compartments are filled to capacity at the beginning of each period and quantities of the two commodities are withdrawn during the period according to two independent demand distributions. There are no storage costs, but penalties are incurred in case of runouts. A solution to the problem is given and the sensitivity of the model is discussed.

摘要:

It is shown that, above some critical value of Sommerfeld number, a condition of hydro-dynamic lubrication may exist. An elementary theory is developed which is consistent with experimental results, the viscosity of typical lubricants and the pressure dependence of viscosity of the lubricant.
