Conference Proceeding
Kazantsev, N., Niewiadomski, K., Martínez-Arellano, G., Elshafei, B., Mo, F., & Murthy, S. R. (2023). Investigating multi-level ontology to support manufacturing during demand fluctuation. In Low-Cost Digital Solutions for Industrial Automation (LoDiSA 2023). https://doi.org/10.1049/icp.2023.1752

Responding to demand fluctuations represents a challenge for manufacturers, as they often face resource limitations and cannot assess all potential solutions. This paper presents a low-cost semantic engineering solution (ontology) to coordinate poten... Read More about Investigating multi-level ontology to support manufacturing during demand fluctuation.

Elastic manufacturing systems: A system view on operations, firm, and supply chain resilience (2023)
Conference Proceeding
Kazantsev, N., Niewiadomski, K., El-Shafei, B., Murthy, S. R., Chaplin, J., Martínez-Arellano, G., …Minshall, T. (2023). Elastic manufacturing systems: A system view on operations, firm, and supply chain resilience.

'Black swan' events-such as military conflicts, pandemics, and semiconductor crises-drastically change product volume and mix patterns and shorten how long manufacturers have to cost-effectively respond to them. This is a particular challenge for hig... Read More about Elastic manufacturing systems: A system view on operations, firm, and supply chain resilience.

Offshore wind resource assessment based on scarce spatio-temporal measurements using matrix factorization (2022)
Journal Article
Elshafei, B., Peña, A., Popov, A., Giddings, D., Ren, J., Xu, D., & Mao, X. (2023). Offshore wind resource assessment based on scarce spatio-temporal measurements using matrix factorization. Renewable Energy, 202, 1215-1225. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2022.12.006

In the pre-construction of wind farms, wind resource assessment is of paramount importance. Measurements by lidars are a source of high-fidelity data. However, they are expensive and sparse in space and time. Contrarily, Weather Research and Forecast...

A hybrid solution for offshore wind resource assessment from limited onshore measurements (2021)
Journal Article
Elshafei, B., Peña, A., Xu, D., Ren, J., Badger, J., Pimenta, F. M., …Mao, X. (2021). A hybrid solution for offshore wind resource assessment from limited onshore measurements. Applied Energy, 298, Article 117245. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apenergy.2021.117245

In wind resource assessments, which are critical to the pre-construction of wind farms, measurements by LiDARs or masts are a source of high-fidelity data, but are expensive and scarce in space and time, particularly for offshore sites. On the other... Read More about A hybrid solution for offshore wind resource assessment from limited onshore measurements.
