Dr Björn Johansson is associate professor in production systems. He received his PhD from Chalmers in 2006. His research is applied and focuses on enabling productive utilization of virtual tools for sustainable production system development. Specific areas of interest are: discrete event simulation, input data management, scheduling, layout planning, sustainability measures of production operations, lifecycle assessment, balancing, and 3DVisualisation of production systems. He has close collaboration with automotive and food production industry, as well as sub-suppliers, software vendors. Dr Johansson maintain strong links with the US National Institute of Standards and Technology, where he also spent over one year as a guest researcher during 2007-2009.
