Knowledge creation within an innovative unit : A case study of Robotic MowersHadmark, Julia, Nilsson, Elin January 2008 (has links)
Problem Knowledge is becoming ever more vital in today’s economy and organisations are realising the need to act on the advantages it provides. Knowledge is complex and contradictory, making it difficult to be created and managed by organisations. Purpose The purpose of this research is to see how knowledge is created and subsequently managed within an environment characterised by progress and innovation, and to identify the most problematic areas in knowledge creation processes as well as suggest improvements. Method Overall, qualitative methods were used in this study. In-depth interviews were conducted with management level within three product development units, two of these were only used for support to the third and main case, Robotic Mowers. Issues of trustworthiness and ethical implications were confronted in order to provide the most advantageous method to conduct the study. Result Knowledge creation at Robotic Mowers originates from both external and internal sources. The most important external source and activity to create knowledge are suppliers/consultants and the most important internal sources is the use of tests. Further, the unit has a highly informal approach to the creation of knowledge and the management of it. Support to knowledge creation is mainly found in cultural aspects. Conclusion The unit’s knowledge creation is dependent on informal and unstructured interaction among group members and to external parties. Overall, low managerial control is exercised and the group has developed a strong culture that enhances informal ways of knowledge creation and its management. The main problem of knowledge creation is that the group fails to realise a long-term need, which is revealed through inadequate efforts in trying to turn tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge.

Design samojízdného žacího stroje na trávu / Design of Self-Propelled MowerZapletálek, Martin January 2014 (has links)
This thesis deals with the analysis and design OF self-propelled mower on the grass. The machine is designed for cutting fodder, and their subsequent treatment. Focusing on the vast scope and great hourly output. The design emphasis is on compliance ergonomic rules, easy maintenance and functionality of the machine. For a very innovative features can be seen ejecting the cab, crop spacing on the sides, drive hydraulic cutter bars. In particular, the location of the cabin and boarding colors and folding machine cutter bars during transport. The machine was created to perfect performance, operator comfort, performance focused on large cysts and fluid design.

Product Usage Data collection and Analysis in Lawn-mowersDamineni, Sarath Chandra, Munukoti, Sai Manikanta January 2020 (has links)
Background: As the requirements for the modern-day comforts are raising from day to day, the great evolution in the field of lawn-mowers is recorded. This evolution made companies produce a fleet of lawn-mowers(commercial, house-hold) for different kinds of usages. Despite the great evolution and market in this field, to the best of our knowledge, no effort was made to understand customer usage by analysis of real-time usage of lawn-mowers. This research made an attempt to analyse the real-time usage of lawn-mowers using techniques like machine learning. Objectives: The main objective of the thesis work is to understand customer usage of lawn-mowers by analysing the real-time usage data using machine learning algorithms. To achieve this, we first review several studies to identify what are the different ways(scenarios) and how to understand customer usage from those scenarios. After discussing these scenarios with the stakeholders at the company, we evaluated a suitable scenario in the case of lawn-mowers. Finally, we achieved the primary objective by clustering the usage of lawn-mowers by analysing the real-world time-series data from the Controller Area Network(CAN) bus based on the driving patterns. Methods: A Systematic literature review(SLR) is performed to identify the different ways to understand customer usage by analysing the usage data using machine learning algorithms and SLR is also performed to gain detailed knowledge about different machine learning algorithms to apply to the real-world data. Finally, an experiment is performed to apply the machine learning algorithms on the CAN bus time-series data to evaluate the usage of lawn-mowers into various clusters and the experiment also involves the comparison and selection of different machine learning algorithms applied to the data. Results: As a result of SLR, we achieved different scenarios to understand customer behaviours by analysing the usage data. After formulating the best suitable scenario for lawn-mowers, SLR also suggested the best suitable machine learning algorithms to be applied to the data for the scenario. Upon applying the machine learning algorithms after making necessary pre-processing steps, we achieved the clusters of usage of lawn-mowers for every driving pattern selected. We also achieved the clusters for different features of driving patterns that indicate the various characteristics like a change of intensity in the usage, rate of change in the usage, etc. Conclusions: This study identified customer behaviours based on their usage data by clustering the usage data. Moreover, clustering the CAN bus time-series data from lawn-mowers gave fresh insights to study human behaviours and interaction with the lawn-mowers. The formulated clusters have a great scope to classify and develop the individual strategy for each cluster formulated. Further, clusters can also be useful for identifying the outlying behaviour of users and/or individual components.
