Additive manufacturing for standard parts in the healthcare supply chain: What are the available performance improvements? (2024)
Journal Article

Additive Manufacturing (AM) has established itself as a manufacturing technology for customised and personalised parts in healthcare applications. More recently its use in healthcare applications has been extended to also include standard parts, albe...

Additive manufacturing implementation in healthcare systems : a supply chain perspective (2024)
Presentation / Conference
Chaldoupis, K., Polychronakis, Y., & Sapountzis, S. (2024, March). Additive manufacturing implementation in healthcare systems : a supply chain perspective. Paper presented at IPSERA 2024: Emerging Alternatives, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

In this study the authors have constructed a conceptual framework by examining the factors influencing AM implementation within the supply chain. Most studies address the potential disruptions of AM in logistics and distribution. Therefore, a study i...

How big data characteristics can help the manufacturing industry mitigate the bullwhip effect in their supply chain (2022)
Thesis
Nyamukoroso, M. How big data characteristics can help the manufacturing industry mitigate the bullwhip effect in their supply chain. (Dissertation). University of Salford

For years, practitioners and academics have significantly studied the impact, causes, and remedies of the bullwhip effect in the supply chain. Numerous approaches have been developed throughout the years to help minimise demand amplification; these i...

Additive manufacturing implementation in healthcare systems : a supply chain perspective
Thesis
Chaldoupis, K. (in press). Additive manufacturing implementation in healthcare systems : a supply chain perspective. (Thesis). University of Salford

Additive Manufacturing (AM), or “3D Printing”, also called the ‘Third Industrial Revolution’, allows companies and individuals to “print-out” solid objects layer-by-layer based on access to 3-dimensional computer data. Several authors have pointed ou... Read More about Additive manufacturing implementation in healthcare systems : a supply chain perspective.
