NAMRC paper by Barbara Linke from University of Califor- nia-Davis, Gero Corman and David Dornfeld of UC-Berkeley and Stefan Tönissen from RWTH Aachen (Germany). The study selects simple and relevant sustainability indicators and discusses different means of normalization. The indica- tors can be displayed as a performance profile individual to each manufacturing process variant. The whole procedure was executed with a grinding process case study. This paper will be published in the Journal of Manufacturing Systems (

A conceptual model to assist sustainable manufactur- ing enterprises through system dynamics is presented in a NAMRC paper by Hao Zhang, Javier Calvo-Amodio and Karl Haapala of Oregon State University (Corvallis, OR). Cur- rent methods of balancing economic and financial priorities against environmental and social responsibilities are deficient in aiding proactive engineering management decision making and revealing broader sustainability opportunities. This paper
incorporates systems thinking into sustainable manufacturing assessment and develops an understanding of the complex interplay of factors from the operational (micro) scale through the enterprise (macro) scale. The combined approach leads to development of a conceptual model being explored in ongoing research. The paper will appear in the Journal of Manufacturing Systems (

A process-based approach for understanding life cycle so- cial impacts in manufacturing is described in a NAMRC paper by Margot Hutchins, Stefanie Robinson and David Dornfeld, all of the University of California-Berkeley. There are substan- tial challenges to identifying and understanding the social im- pacts, which occur on various scales in manufacturing, from the level of a unit process to the level of an enterprise. The paper identifies key characteristics of the social impacts that should be considered in addressing sustainability for products and processes. Examples involving a typical manufacturing process—welding—are presented to illustrate the utility of
