Review on the State of the Research in Energy and Eco-efficiency of Manufacturing Processes

摘要: Researches in the field of manufacturing processes traditionally focused on mechanical performances, such as cutting forces, machinability, surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, etc. The energy consumption and associated environmental impact had been overlooked past. Due to soaring price increasing awareness impacts, eco-efficiency has become one most extensively researched topics manufacturing. New researches papers have published order improve processes. However, there are few fundamental questions remaining unanswered. For example, “what does mean processes?”, “how evaluate them” still remains be answered. following sections present currently available methodologies literature that attempt answer those define research gap which requires addressed.
