“…The decision maker could interactively determine the best solution based on the non-dominant solution set obtained from the model. Liu et al [25] considered customer satisfaction and the evolution of product families in product configurations. The result showed that this method could provide a more competitive product configuration scheme to customers in the future market.…”

In the background of global carbon-neutral requirements, enterprises need to control carbon emissions in the process of product lifecycles in order to gain market competitive advantages. Previous product configuration studies, mostly focused on minimizing carbon dioxide emissions, have ignored the issue of carbon-neutral costs. This study quantifies the product costs borne by enterprises and the carbon-neutral cost borne by the government, respectively. A carbon-neutral cost model for suppliers, enterprises, customers, and recycling plants in the whole life cycle of products was constructed. The whole life cycle carbon emissions and the unit carbon removal costs were taken into account in the carbon-neutral cost model. By minimizing product and carbon-neutral costs, a bi-objective integer programming model was constructed. The NSGA-II algorithm was introduced to solve the Pareto front of the model. The feasibility and effectiveness of this method were then illustrated through a case study and results comparison. It showed that, compared with the scheme of carbon emissions reduction, the optimization scheme with carbon-neutral costs as the object had a significant change. Integrating carbon-neutral costs into product development activities was effective in reducing the enterprise’s product cost and the government’s financial expenditure on carbon removal simultaneously. The proposed model could provide a win–win product configuration scheme for the government and enterprises.

“…In addition, some studies focus on the evolution of product clusters, representing the product cluster structure as a network that describes the relationship between the components in the product cluster structure. In the context of considering customer requirements and product reliability, determining the parts that need to be improved can provide customers with more competitive product configuration schemes in the future market [28,29].…”

A Product Evolution Rules Based Method for Retired Mechanical Product Demand Acquisition

et al. 2022

Accurate acquisition of retired mechanical products demand (RMPD) is the basis for realizing effective utilization of remanufacturing service data and improving the feasibility of remanufacturing schemes. Some studies have explored product demands, making product demands an important support for product design and development. However, these studies are obtained through the transformation of customer and market demand information, and few studies are studied from a product perspective. However, remanufacturing services for retired mechanical products (RMP) must consider the impact of the failure characteristics. Consequently, based on the generalized growth of RMP driven by the failure characteristics, the concept of RMPD is proposed in this paper. Then, the improved ant colony algorithm is proposed to mine the generalized growth evolution law of RMP from the empirical data of remanufacturing services, and the RMPD is deduced based on the mapping relationship between the product and its attributes. Finally, the feasibility and applicability of the proposed method are verified by obtaining the demand for retired rolls. In detail, the results show that the proposed method can obtain the RMPD accurately and efficiently, and the performance of the method can be continuously optimized with the accumulation of empirical data.
