Download Presentation as PDFNew disruptions – technological, business and social – are being facilitated by the evolution of digital technologies. There are, of course, many valuable pilot efforts across the world that integrate a deep understanding of digital technologies with student learning. Yet the classical classroom that does not fully include digital learning dominates globally. There are many curricula that allow postsecondary students to learn about digital opportunities, but these are not ubiquitous. As educators, we want students to learn and become more self-aware about how their academic disciplines intersect with the enlarging digital world. How do we do so? First, we must convey that digital transformation and innovation are not synonymous. While digital transformations are typically realized over longer periods, digital innovations on the other hand are generated by the more immediate ignition of creativity and relatively shorter term design thinking. Digital creativity is enabled both within the classroom and oftentimes outside it, in the latter case sometimes even without a formal curriculum. It thus follows that, in addition to discipline-specific fundamentals, students should learn to embrace digital evolution regardless of their area of academic discipline to enable longer term digital transformation.
In this presentation, we will discuss some examples of how the awareness and understanding of digital evolution has been integrated into student learning in various engineering disciplines. This includes, for instance, teaching and learning related to autonomous systems, data analytics, IoT implementations, e.g., for advanced manufacturing, and the evolution of graphical user interfaces and apps. Finally, we present some strategies to encourage the more ubiquitous implementation of these integrations.

Accenture estimates an economic opportunity of five trillion dollars for businesses moving to the CE.
Since the first industrial revolution generations of people used to linear economy (LE) i.e. produce, use and throw. LE depletes materials, energy and water resources. Moreover the undesirable effects of LE on the living environment is evident around the world. Growing consumerism and population worldwide raised concerns about the sustainability for future generations. Call for legislative pressure, stricter environmental laws, and coordinated efforts to move away from the LE to CE is gaining momentum. New legislations in Europe, China, Japan, USA and Singapore put pressure on industries and businesses to bear the responsibility for environmental impacts of their products over the entire life cycles. China studied the best practices of pioneering EU countries, and passed laws to promote CE. Provinces like Qinghai are adopting CE to achieve green or low-carbon development and growth. CE oriented industrial system involves the use of renewable energy, elimination of use of toxic chemicals, elimination of waste through superior design of products, resources efficiency, remanufacture products, recover resources at the end of service life, and innovative business models. CE aims for sustainable development i.e. economic prosperity, environmental quality, and impact on social equity and future generations.
Industry 4.0 is seen as an enabler of the circular economy. Industry 4.0 is characterized by a confluence of new technologies such as automation, Internet of Things (IoT), cyber physical systems, machine learning, cloud computing, big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), sensors, robots, human-robot interactions, 3D printing, wearables, mind-technologies, biotechnology and nanotechnology. They are expected to transform the production systems, business models, economic growth, employment, and sustainability.
For example, IoT, sensors, on-device AI, and big data analytics help to monitor, diagnose, preventive maintenance, and reduce harmful emissions in the transportation sector. New approaches include re-design of vehicles and materials selection with environment in mind, and processes to ensure complete recycling of used vehicles. Application of augmented reality, virtual manufacturing and smart manufacturing or digital manufacturing to shorten lead-time, reduce cost, improve productivity and quality. This is applicable to land, sea, and aerospace transport systems. Similar examples are emerging in plastics, wood, paper, construction, water use, solid waste handling, clean energy generation and use, resources efficiency and productivity of manufacturing processes, agriculture, farm produce, food packaging, beverages, textiles, supply chains, and services sectors.
Using these technologies garments company Zara designs and stock an outfit in its stores around the world in 20 days! Silicon Valley entrepreneurs backed company Allbirds makes machine washable shoes from very fine merino wool and meant to be worn without socks. Urban farming enabled by industry 4.0 technologies reduces the water consumption and fertilizer consumption while improving the yield and quality. More over these improved practices contribute to lowering of carbon foot print of products. New approaches integrate environmental factors to realize sustainable product design and manufacturing, and eco-friendliness of products and uses.
Emerging industrial revolution will be a result of synergetic pursuit of new technologies and circular economy. It will transform the production systems, business models, economic growth, employment, and sustainability. Hybrid technologies involving Industry 4.0 and CE concepts are expected to transform the production systems, business models, economic growth, employment, living, and sustainability. They enable the vision of smart, green and livable cities.
This lecture examines how the new technologies and CE concepts will impact the industry and environment? Other questions that will be addressed include which sectors of the economy will have the most impact? Which industries and businesses will be benefited and who will be affected? What are the opportunities for innovation? What are the best practices around the world, and examples to emulate? What are the changes needed in education to nurture future human capital?

Download Presentation as PDFFor the implementation of Industrie 4.0 in practical applications, high process transparency, an integrated data flow and high adaptability of the industrial value chains are essential requirements. In this presentation, the main challenges on the way towards Industrie 4.0 in manufacturing companies as well as promising approaches and recent experiences are presented.
Today, manufacturing companies are facing the challenges of an increasing product variety and shorter lead times, while there are typically high efforts for individual engineering, data processing and the adaptation of production equipment.
Thus, one important target is the vertical integration of business processes from the digital customer interface down to the machine level, which means the integration of all IT systems related to engineering, individual product configuration, order processing and machine setup. In order to achieve this target, the digitization and automation of numerous processes is necessary, which requires digital representations of products and production equipment. Classification and modelling standards such as eCl@ss and AutomationML can provide a basis for the digital representations, which have to be processed automatically in digital value chains.
On the shopfloor level, modular machine concepts as well as flexible line control systems serve as enablers for transparent and easy-to-setup production processes and thus for an efficient variant production.
