Process Simulation Using WITNESS
Teaches basic and advanced modeling and simulation techniques to both undergraduate and postgraduate students and serves as a practical guide and manual for professionals learning how to build simulation models using WITNESS, a free-standing software package. This book discusses the theory behind simulation and demonstrates how to build simulation models with WITNESS. The book begins with an explanation of the concepts of simulation modeling and a “guided tour” of the WITNESS modeling environment. Next, the authors cover the basics of building simulation models using WITNESS and modeling of material-handling systems. After taking a brief tour in basic probability and statistics, simulation model input analysis is then examined in detail, including the importance and techniques of fitting closed-form distributions to observed data. Next, the authors present simulation output analysis including determining run controls and statistical analysis of simulation outputs and show how to use these techniques and others to undertake simulation model verification and validation. Effective techniques for managing a simulation project are analyzed, and case studies exemplifying the use of simulation in manufacturing and services are covered. Simulation-based optimization methods and the use of simulation to build and enhance lean systems are then discussed. Finally, the authors examine the interrelationships and synergy between simulation and Six Sigma. Emphasizes real-world applications of simulation modeling in both services and manufacturing sectors Discusses the role of simulation in Six Sigma projects and Lean Systems Contains examples in each chapter on the methods and concepts presented Process Simulation Using WITNESS is a resource for students, researchers, engineers, management consultants, and simulation trainers.
Rational Process Design: Simulation Modeling with Witness Horizon 22
Rational Process Design and Simulation Modeling with Witness Horizon 22 Lanner Group released the latest update to their WITNESS process simulation software, WITNESS Horizon 22, in 2018. WITNESS Horizon includes many updates from prior releases especially including dramatic enhancements in three-dimensional modeling, Data Tables and charting tools. This edition of Rational Process Design & Simulation Modeling with WITNESS Horizon 22 provides an introduction to manufacturing process design and simulation modeling. More than being just a simple explanation of the mechanics of developing simulation models, there is a significant focus on the use of Axiomatic Design for manufacturing processes and building stochastic simulation models based on a strong foundation of process and product functional requirements. The approach is conversational with occasional humorous asides, taking the reader through a series of exercises that are illustrated step-by-step. The seven chapters of exercises sequentially build knowledge, experience and the reader's self-confidence. After all, one would certainly be reluctant to learn to ride a bicycle from reading a book. Learning to develop useful simulation models is, in the end, best accomplished by actually building models and this text supports that model building with a thorough level of detail.

Rational Process Design and Simulation Modeling with WITNESS Horizon
Rational Process Design and Simulation Modeling with Witness HorizonLanner Group released the latest update to their process simulation software, Witness Horizon, in 2016. Witness Horizon includes many updates from prior releases especially with regard to dramatic enhancements in three-dimensional modeling. The previous edition of this text, which is also available in Kindle format, is specific to Witness 13 and 14. This edition or Rational Process Design & Simulation Modeling with Witness Horizon provides an introduction to manufacturing process design and simulation modeling. More than being a simple explanation of the mechanics of developing simulation models, there is a significant focus on the use of Axiomatic Design for manufacturing processes, building the simulation models up from a strong foundation of process and product functional requirements. Additionally, incorporation of Process Failure Mode Effect Analysis with simulation modeling is reviewed and demonstrated.The text consists of seven chapters, with each chapter building on the concepts presented in those prior. Chapter 1 - Simulation model project planningChapter 2 - Introduction to Lanner Witness structure and menusChapter 3 - Building a first simple modelChapter 4 - SMT electronics manufacturing modelChapter 5 - Conveyors and pathsChapter 6 - Variables and variabilityChapter 7 - Advanced topics: PFMEA and simulation, Axiomatic Design of simulation models and 3D modeling
