Abstract:
In order to obtain components with desired properties in production processes, it is necessary to consider all single process steps. The holistic view of a process chain enables the identification and the control of interactions between the single processes. In contrast to the description of a single process, state and control variables might not be consistent along the entire process chain. We propose a universal characterization of state and control features along the process chain that takes into account all relevant information and, at the same time, reduces the complexity in optimization. This allows us to optimize the entire process chain to obtain a desired product at the end under consideration of process noise, even for high dimensional state and control spaces.
