Educating engineers for industry 4.0: Virtual worlds and human-robot-teams: Empirical studies towards a new educational age

2022 IEEE Global Engineering Education Conference (EDUCON) (2016)

Anja Richert Mohammad A. Shehadeh Lana Plumanns Kerstin Gros Katharina Schuster

The term "Industry 4.0" symbolizes new forms of technology and artificial intelligence within production technologies. Smart robots are going to be the game changers within the factories of the future and will work with humans in indispensable teams within many processes. With this fourth industrial revolution, classical production lines are going through comprehensive modernization, e.g. in terms of in-the-box manufacturing, where humans and machines work side by side in so-called "hybrid teams". Questions about how to prepare for newly needed engineering competencies for the age of Industry 4.0, how to assess them and how to teach and train e.g. human-robot-teams have to be tackled in future engineering education. The paper presents theoretical aspects and empirical results of a series of studies, carried out to investigate the competencies of virtual collaboration and joint problem solving in virtual worlds.

Socializing with robots: Human-robot interactions within a virtual environment

Anja Richert Mohammad A. Shehadeh Sarah Müller Stefan Schröder Sabina Jeschke

Robots are already physically supporting humans within multiple processes, but as a step further, the robots will be able to identify and adapt to any individual strengths and become the flawless co-workers needed. One of the questions is whether in other fields of social robotics, e.g. in ergonomics, existing knowledge about human teams can be transferred into the design of hybrid teams and the shaping of human-computer interactions. These developments serve the appearance of Industry 4.0, which is directly correlated to the modernization of productions that are directly involved in defining the concept of hybrid human-robot-teams. This is a concept paper that describes the investigation whether the appearance of the robot and its accuracy while fulfilling the task influence the stress level of the human, his cooperation behavior and trust towards the robot, and as an overall result the performance of the cooperative work in a complete virtual environment. The participants will be given a task to accomplish with the aid of their virtual robot partner and rely on their features and abilities, they have to act as efficiently as possible, which gives room to investigate the teamwork over various team development stages, stress, trust, and performance. The study will take place in August 2016, where the results will be published shortly afterwards.

Hybrid teams of industry 4.0: A work place considering robots as key players

2022 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC) (2017)

Mohammad A. Shehadeh Schroeder Stefan Anja Richert Sabina Jeschke

The ongoing modernization of today's workplaces within the framework of industry 4.0 is leading to radical new developments and forcing fundamental changes to the way companies and factories are established. The purpose of this paper is to develop and improve a concept that organizes the workplace on a basic level in order to meet the upcoming challenge of accounting for robots as key players in it. There are several organizational structures that include the traditional hierarchical structures as well as the modern agile management models that are rising in the world of industry 4.0. Within it, the usage of robots is increasing due to the vast and multiple functions each robot is able to perform. This implies automation, but it also implies that different forms of collaboration with humans are becoming necessary as factories are tending to produce customized products. Individualized products require different methods and different skills which span different sets of abilities of humans and robots. How does this increase of robots' usage affect the applied organization structures and flows of the decision-making processes? What are necessary changes that need to be considered to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of a workplace with robots that already existing structures do not compensate for? This paper highlights the existing gap and addresses the required changes in the organization models. Following that is an evaluation and outlook on that validates the legitimacy of the approach.

Digital Transformation of Engineering Education - Empirical Insights from Virtual Worlds and Human-Robot-Collaboration

International Journal of Engineering Pedagogy (iJEP) (2016)

Anja Richert Mohammad A. Shehadeh Freya Willicks Sabina Jeschke

Cyber-physical systems and “Industry 4.0” will require future engineers to handle big data and complex, multidisciplinary problems as well as to collaborate with machines in “hybrid teams”. As some work spaces will be virtualized or remotely controllable new communication skills and the knowledge of virtual worlds are necessary. Furthermore, working as a team with machines demands not only knowledge of mechanical engineering and machines but also an extended understanding of team working. To meet such challenges future engineers need to acquire new skills and qualification. This task does not only concern engineering students and trainees but also teachers for engineering. Questions about how to prepare for newly needed engineering competencies for the age of Industry 4.0, how to assess them and how to teach and train e.g. human-robot-teams have to be tackled in future engineering education. The paper presents theoretical aspects and empirical results of a series of studies, which were conducted to investigate engineering education in virtual worlds as well as different aspects about team building in hybrid teams.

Modeling of Cellular Articular Cartilage Replacement Tissues in Modern Biomechanics

Mohammad A. Shehadeh Beixian Zhou M. Stoel Dieter Weichert

Predicting the mechanical properties of soft replacement tissues seeded with human chondrocytes is a main requirement in modern medical applications. The implants that are designed to fill in articular cartilage defects should exhibit the same strength and damping properties as the native material itself. For this reason, the acellular basis material of an implant, as well as cellular tissues, are investigated theoretically, numerically, and experimentally in this study. Knowing all of that, the main aim of this work is to reach a common methodology of theory and experiments that determines the mechanical properties of the native material and hence choose a suitable replacement one. This work is financed by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research in Germany (BMBF).

Hassan Ibrahim Rkein Hussin Hejase Ali Rkein Bassam Hamdar Mohammad A. Shehadeh

Universities continue to be concerned about employers’ demands for competent graduates who are job-ready. In response, universities have addressed this challenge by developing students' professional capabilities and skills that meet the job market expectations. Hence, universities have increasingly integrated various educational means throughout their curricula. These supporting means included adopting dynamic teaching and learning methods that foster critical thinking and enhance the analytical ability of the graduates. That was also in addition to incorporating work-integrated learning, facilitating employers’ visitations, and direct involvement in advising course development and review.This study aims to analyze the main stakeholders in the accounting education system, namely accounting students, teaching instructors, and employers, and compare their perspectives on the competencies required of accounting graduates. This research also seeks to identify the competency gap by analyzing the gap matrix and suggesting solutions based on comparing different viewpoints. To achieve the objectives necessitates a quantitative research approach using a survey questionnaire administered to 116 respondents, comprising 56 employers, 45 accounting students, and 15 accounting instructors. Participation in the survey is voluntary.The findings reveal significant differences between students' and employers’ perceptions of required accounting competencies compared to the instructors'. The most significant competencies identified include soft skills, accounting technical skills, problem-solving abilities, ethical considerations, and digital literacy. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers in the workplace and universities to bridge differences and close competency gaps.
