Opis:
Background: The purpose of this paper is to redesign the supply chain network of a lubricant company by implementing an innovative solution concentrated on the delivery of products and minimizing total loading, unloading and transportation costs. Methods: In this paper the authors' approach to redesigning the supply chain network (SCN) is presented. It comprises 3 phases: analysis of the current state of the SCN, identification of disadvantages in the SCN and SCN improvement. This step-wise procedure is verified on a real-world supply chain network, which is analyzed, evaluated and redesigned. Based on this analysis, the most important strengths and weaknesses are identified. The main criteria for evaluation are loading, unloading and transportation costs. A redesign of the company is proposed, the stakeholders' opinions are gathered and the innovative solution is implemented. Results: After successful implementation of the innovative solution, the result shows savings in loading, unloading and transportation costs and an improvement in the level of service. Research Limitations: The proposed methodology can be implemented in other supply chain networks. However, the way of limiting the loading, unloading and transportation costs presented in this paper cannot be regarded as a general rule applicable to all companies. Conclusions: This study presents innovative thinking in the logistics network of a company and the results obtained prove that companies which are innovative in terms of products can also become innovative in their services.
Wstęp: Celem niniejszego artykułu jest reorganizacja łańcucha dostaw firmy funkcjonującej w branży olejowej, poprzez wdrożenie innowacyjnego rozwiązania skoncentrowanego na dostawach produktów i poprzez minimalizację całkowitego załadunku, wyładunku towarów i kosztów transportu. Metody: W niniejszym artykule jest przedstawione podejście do reorganizacji łańcucha dostaw (ŁD). Składa się ono z 3 faz, tj. analizy stanu aktualnego ŁD, identyfikacji słabych stron ŁD oraz poprawy funkcjonowania ŁD. Przedstawiona wielofazowa procedura jest zweryfikowana na przykładzie rzeczywistego łańcucha dostaw, który jest poddany analizie, ocenie i reorganizacji. Na podstawie przeprowadzonej analizy, są definiowane jego najważniejsze mocne i słabe strony. Głównymi kryteriami oceny są koszty załadunku, wyładunku i transportu. Rekomendowana jest reorganizacja przedsiębiorstwa, zbierane są opinie osób zainteresowanych funkcjonowaniem łańcucha i zaimplementowane jest innowacyjne rozwiązanie. Wyniki: Po udanym wdrożeniu innowacyjnego rozwiązania, uzyskany rezultat pokazuje oszczędności w kosztach załadunku, wyładunku i transportu oraz poprawę poziomu świadczonych usług. Ograniczenia badawcze: Proponowana metodyka może być zastosowana w innych łańcuchach dostaw. Jednak przedstawiony sposób ograniczenia kosztów załadunku, wyładunku i transportu nie może być uznany, jako ogólna zasada dla wszystkich przedsiębiorstw. Ponadto badania nie uwzględniają sytuacji ewentualnych niedoborów magazynowych. Wnioski: Przedstawione wyniki badań koncentrują się na innowacyjnym podejściu do sieci logistycznej w wybranej firmie, a uzyskane wyniki dowodzą, że przedsiębiorstwo świadczące innowacyjne produkty, może stać się innowacyjne w sferze usług.

Opis:
Received Signal Strength Indication (RSSI) plays a vital role in the range-free localization of sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network and a good amount of research has been made in this regard. One important factor is the battery voltage of the nodes (i.e., the MICAz sensors) which is not taken into account in the existing literature. As battery voltage level performs an indispensable role for the position estimation of sensor nodes through anchor nodes therefore, in this paper, we take into a account this crucial factor and propose an algorithm that overcomes the problem of decaying battery. We show the results, in terms of more precise localization of sensor nodes through simulation. This work is an extension to [1] and now we also use neural network to overcome the localization errors generated due to gradual battery voltage drooping.

Opis:
Background: This study is for examining the association between green logistics, energy demand, renewable energy consumptions, environmental performance and sustainable economic development in a panel of nineteen developed economies around the globe over the period from 2008-2017. In addition, the article expands domain of green logistics from firm level to country level and also connects national scale economic indicators with green logistical performance. Methods: The study employs Pools OLS (ordinary least square) statistical technique to check hypothesis, while secondary data have been used, which were downloaded from the World Bank. Results: The results reveal that the green logistics indicators have strongly positive correlation with green energy sources, FDI inflows, and Trade openness. On the other hand, greenhouse gas emissions and carbon emissions have negative correlation with green logistics. Furthermore, renewable energy is a driving factor of green logistics and supply chain operations which also promote environmental and economic sustainability. Conclusion: This article provides the insight of the association between green logistics performance and national scale economic and environmental indicators. In addition, this research will help practitioners, senior managers and policymaker to understand the importance of renewable energy and green practices in logistical operations.

Opis:
The present experimental evaluation deals with the behavior of base pressure (BP) in a suddenly expanded duct at supersonic Mach number regimes. The experiments have been conducted for two cases viz. Without and with the use of microjets or active control. The plan of experiments was planned as per Taguchi design of experiments for acquiring data in a controlled manner. An L27 orthogonal array and analysis of variance (ANOVA) has been employed to investigate the contribution (in terms of percentage) of distinct process parameters like Mach number (M), Nozzle Pressure Ratio (N), Area Ratio (A) and their interactions affecting base pressure. The correlation between these parameters affecting base pressure has been obtained using multiple linear regression analysis. It has been concluded that the Mach number and area ratio were the factors that had high statistical significance on the behavior of base pressure for both cases. The performances of the developed linear regression models have been validated for accuracy prediction by use of 15 test cases. The performance of both the base pressure models was found to be better with percentage prediction in deviation lying in the range of –12.92% to +15.88% for base pressure without control and –10.27% to +19.23% for base pressure with control.

Opis:
To obtain optimal performance, estimation of radio refractivity is essential in planning and design of radio links/systems. The dependence of radio refractivity on different climatic parameters such as temperature, pressure, humidity and scale height is studied. The method proposed by International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is used in calculation of tropospheric radio refractivity. The main objective of this work is to formulate a mathematical equation/expression which can be used to predict/estimate the value of radio refractivity for an arbitrary day of any year, with a low error of estimation, in a local environment. Sensitivity of radio refractivity to temperature, pressure and humidity has been evaluated for a period of 5 years from 2008 to 2012, in a particular area under consideration. The results presented for tropospheric radio refractivity take into consideration both the location height and scale height parameters. The results are analysed in terms of statistical measures such as the moving averages, probability density function, monthly mean values, and their corresponding standard deviations. Finally, a mathematical model is formulated to calculate the radio refractivity for any day of a whole year. Reliability of error analysis in respect to accuracy is also shown. It was implemented in the industrial enterprise.

Theileriosis is a hemoparasitic disease that affects a wide range of different animal species and is caused by various species of Theileria. This study aimed to determine the molecular epidemiology of Theileria annulata through microscopy and PCR, in crossbred cattle in some districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. For this study, a total of 384 blood samples were collected from cattle in the Peshawar (n=120), Charsadda (n=94), Nowshera (n=84), and Swabi (n=86) districts. Microscopy and PCR were used to determine the overall prevalence of theileriosis, which was found to be 15.8 and 22.6%, respectively. Theileria annulata was detected in blood samples through PCR in the study area, and the target gene i.e., Tams 1, of positive samples was sequenced. The sequences in the current study revealed high sequence homology (ranging from 96 to 100%) with Tams 1 sequences of neighboring countries present in the NCBI database. Season, breed, age, and sex were found to be important risk factors among the several risk factors examined, whereas, among different clinical manifestations, lymphadenopathy showed a strong association with theileriosis. According to Cohen’s kappa and ROC analysis, microscopy was proven to be a fair diagnostic test for detecting theileriosis in cattle, and may be used in combination with molecular techniques for screening a large number of animals.

Opis:
Time-Frequency (t-f) distributions are frequently employed for analysis of new-born EEG signals because of their non-stationary characteristics. Most of the existing time-frequency distributions fail to concentrate energy for a multicomponent signal having multiple directions of energy distribution in the t-f domain. In order to analyse such signals, we propose an Adaptive Directional Time-Frequency Distribution (ADTFD). The ADTFD outperforms other adaptive kernel and fixed kernel TFDs in terms of its ability to achieve high resolution for EEG seizure signals. It is also shown that the ADTFD can be used to define new time-frequency features that can lead to better classification of EEG signals, e.g. the use of the ADTFD leads to 97.5% total accuracy, which is by 2% more than the results achieved by the other methods.

Opis:
The impact of design flood in terms of water surface level and maximum velocity in a reach on the Nile River is studied, using a depth-averaged two-dimensional model. The reach includes a proposed site for a shipyard maintenance harbour. The CCHE2D model, a depth-averaged two-dimensional model, is selected to perform both the steady state computation, for calibration purposes, and flood routing through the reach to obtain maximum water surface level and velocity information. Manning's coefficient was obtained by matching the computed and measured water surface level in the reach under steady flow conditions. The computed results of velocity and water surface profiles agreed satisfactorily with the measured data. The verified model was then used to simulate a flood event within the same reach. Stage-discharge relationships for various sections within the reach were obtained. The peak water surface level at each section was compared with the flow stage under normal flow conditions. The peak stage was found to be well below the proposed elevation of the construction site. The estimation of the peak velocity and water surface level might be useful for bank protection work.

Opis:
An investigation is performed for an alyzing the effect of entropy generation on the steady, laminar, axisymmetric flow of an incompressible Powell-Eyring fluid. The flow is considered in the presence of vertically applied magnetic field between radially stretching rotating disks. The Energy and concentration equation is taking into account to investigate the heat dissipation, Soret, Dufour and Joule heating effects. To describe the considered flow non-dimensionalized equations, an exact similarity function is used to reduce a set of the partial differential equation into a system of non-linear coupled ordinary differential equation with the associated boundary conditions. Using homotopy analysis method (HAM), an analytic solution for velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are obtained over the entire range of the imperative parameters. The velocity components, concentration and temperature field are used to determine the entropy generation. Plots illustrate important results on the effect of physical flow parameters. Results obtained by means of HAM are then compared with the results obtained by using optimized homotopy analysis method (OHAM). They are in very good agreement.

Effects of human laterality, type of computer and noise on computer operators’ performance of a data entry task were investigated. Seven right- and 7 left-motorsided male subjects performed the task on desktop and laptop computers in a sitting posture under varying noise levels. The mean number of characters entered per minute was statistically analysed. The right-motorsided operators entered more data than left-motorsided ones at each noise level. Operators performed better on desktop computers. Operators’ performance decreased when noise level increased from 82 to 92 dB(A) but it improved at 102 dB(A). Effects of laterality, type of computer and noise, and the interaction between laterality and noise were statistically significant. The interactions between laterality and type of computer, and type of computer and noise were statistically insignificant. Laterality was statistically significant at all noise levels and noise was statistically significant for right motor-sided operators only.

But the pink colour prevailing after use makes people reject the water on aesthetic grounds. Water samples from bore wells and tap water from public places were collected from different areas of Visakhapatnam. Physio-chemical and microbial analysis analyses of the water samples were carried out. A dose based permaganate treatment of water depending upon number of colony forming units and species of microorganism present in the water was carried out [1,2,5].

Opis:
Multi-step martensitic transformation in an aged Ni-rich binary NiTi shape memory alloy is considered as usual behavior during transformation from austenite to martensite phase; from (austenite) B2 to R-phase and then R-phase to B19' (monoclinic). However, for equi-atomic NiTi-based quaternary high temperature shape memory alloy, two-step martensitic transformation was detected for the first time. The $Ti_{50}Ni_{15}Pd_{25}Cu_{10}$ high temperature shape memory alloys were investigated for the evolution of transformation temperatures at aging temperature of 550°C and 700°C. Aging at 550°C for 6 h resulted in significant reduction of phase transformation temperatures. During forward transformation from austenite to martensite, two-step martensitic transformation B2 → R and R → B19 (orthorhombic) was observed. By aging the alloy at 700°C for 6 h, no significant effect was found on phase transition behavior and transformation temperatures.

Twenty male subjects aged 10–55 were assigned into 4 age groups each consisting of 5 persons. They performed the task for 15 min on desktop and laptop computers in a sitting posture under varying levels of noise. The mean number of characters entered per minute (MNCEPM) was statistically analyzed. Operators in the 16–25 age group achieved the highest rate of data entry at each level of noise investigated. Operators performed better on desktop than on laptop computers. Their performance decreased when noise level increased from 82 to 92 dB(A), but it improved at 102 dB(A). The effects of age and noise were statistically significant. However, the effects of the type of computer, the interactions between age and type of computer, age and noise level, and type of computer and noise were not found to be statistically significant.

Opis:
The impact of climate change on annual air temperature has received a great deal of attention from climatologists worldwide. Many studies have been conducted to illustrate that changes in temperature are becoming evident on a global scale. Air temperature, one of the most important components of climate parameters, has been widely measured as a starting point towards the apprehension of climate change and variability. The main objective of this study is to analyse the temporal variability of mean monthly temperature for the period of 1941 to 2010 (70 years). To detect the magnitude of trend in mean monthly temperature time series, we have used non-parametric test methods such as The Mann-Kendall test, often combined with the Theil-Sen’s robust estimate of linear trend. Whatever test is used, the user should understand the underlying assumptions of both the technique used to generate the estimates of a trend and the statistical methods used for testing. The results of this analysis reveal that four months – January, February, March and December – indicate a decreasing trend in average temperature, while the remaining eight months have an increasing trend. The magnitude of Mann-Kendall trend statistic Zc for this declining temperature and the magnitude of slope for the months of January, February and December are confirmed at the high significance levels of α = 0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 respectively. Though, the overall trend is positive for monthly as well as seasonally efficient time series.

Opis:
Flank wear of multilayer coated carbide (TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiN) insert in dry hard turning is studied. Machining under wet condition is also performed and flank wear is measured. A novel micro-channel is devised in the insert to deliver the cutting fluid directly at the tool-chip interface. Lower levels of cutting parameters yield the minimum flank wear which is significantly affected by cutting speed and feed rate. In comparison to dry and wet machining, insert with micro-channel reduces the flank wear by 48.87% and 3.04% respectively. The tool with micro-channel provides saving of about 87.5% in the consumption of volume of cutting fluid and energy.
W pracy przedstawiono badania nad zużyciem krawędzi skrawającej wielowarstwowej płytki z ceramiki narzędziowej (TiN/TiCN/Al2O3/TiN) w toczeniu twardym na sucho. Badano także zużycie krawędzi skrawającej w warunkach toczenia na mokro. Nowatorskim rozwiązaniem było zastosowanie mikrokanału w płytce skrawającej, przez który płyn smarny dostarczany jest bezpośrednio do styku między narzędziem i wiórem. Uzyskany tą drogą niższy poziom parametrów skrawania zapewnia minimalne zużycie krawędzi skrawającej, na które w istotny sposób wpływają prędkość skrawania i szybkość posuwu. W porównaniu do warunków toczenia na sucho i na mokro, zastosowanie mikrokanału zmniejsza zużycie krawędzi skrawającej o odpowiednio 48,87% i 3,04%. Narzędzie z mikrokanałem zapewnia także oszczędność zużycia płynu smarnego i energii o ok. 87,5%.

Opis:
Heavy metals determination in manures provides beneficial information to predict the availability and the potential contamination of environment. Therefore, a study was carried out to investigate heavy metals changes in livestock manure during a co-composting process. The metals were stepwise fractionated into exchangeable, adsorbed, organically bound, carbonate precipitated and residual forms by extracting with 0.5M KNO3, de-ionized water, 0.5M NaOH, 0.05M Na2EDTA and 4M HNO3, respectively. During the extraction process, the amount of metals remained highly dependent on an extraction method and stage of manure composting. Extractions released heavy metals contents in the final composted manure as Zn > Cu > Pb > Cr > Ni > Cd. Irrespective of the days of composting, extracting agents differed in the order HNO3 > Na2EDTA > NaOH > KNO3 > H2O for all heavy metals. Higher concentrations of heavy metals were observed during the early stages of composting. Conversely, there was a progressive increase in the concentrations of K, Ca and Mg during composting of manure. Total C in the manure reduced with composting days.

Opis:
The present work measures the adsorption capacity of sugarcane bagasse to remove excess lead from groundwater. Batch adsorption experiments were carried out to evaluate the adsorption equilibrium, and the effects of four parameters (pH, adsorbent dosage, equilibrium time and particle size) on the adsorption of lead were investigated. Characterization of the adsorbent was carried out through SEM and FTIR instruments. Results confirm that the adsorption of lead takes place successfully on the surface of the adsorbent. The maximum efficiency of adsorption is up to 50% achieved in 5g adsorbent dosage, at an optimum pH 5, with a contact time of 120 minutes and 53 μm adsorbent size at 38.

Opis:
The current study was aimed to find out the heavy metal concentration of groundwater in the Veppanthattai block. Here, 45 water samples from different sites were collected during the year 2015 at post monsoon, and Cd, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, Pb and Zn heavy metal content was analyzed using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS), The obtained results were then compared with the WHO standard for the specific highest pollution level. Accordingly, some or all water samples are above the permissible limit, particularly for Cd metal (all samples). The elevated concentration of cadmium in water samples of the study area may be due to agricultural runoff, as pesticides and cadmium-containing fertilizer have been used. The study showed that without proper treatment, the groundwater of the study area is not suitable for domestic applications.

Opis:
This experimental study reveals the effects of CaF2, FeMn and NiO additions to the base fluxes on tensile strength and percentage elongation of the weld metal. The aim of this study is to develop suitable flux for mild steel for high tensile strength, impact strength and ductility. Bead on plate welds were made using submerged arc welding process. Mathematical model for percentage elongation and UTS of mild steel welds were made. The elements transfer to the welds have been correlated with the above mechanical performance characteristics. The effect of oxygen content on weld elongation and UTS also has been deduced. This study shows that CaF2 and NiO are the significant factors for tensile strength while FeMn is not significant for tensile strength. However, for elongation besides CaF2, the interaction of CaF2 and FeMn was also found significant. The effects of basicity index of the flux and carbon equivalent of the welds on tensile strength and percentage elongation of the welds have also been evaluated.
W studium eksperymentalnym, przedstawionym w pracy, pokazano wpływ domieszek CaF2, FeMn i NiO do podstawowego składu topnika na wytrzymałość na rozciąganie i procentowe wydłużenie metalu spawu. Celem studium było opracowanie topnika odpowiedniego dla stali niskowęglowej, który zapewnia wysoką wytrzymałość na rozciąganie, wytrzymałość na udary i plastyczność. Ściegi spawów wykonano metodą spawania łukiem krytym. Opracowano model matematyczny wydłużenia procentowego i wytrzymałości na rozciąganie (UTS) dla spawów ze stali niskowęglowej. Zbadano korelację między wymienionymi charakterystykami mechanicznymi a transferem pierwiastków do spawu. Wyznaczono także wpływ zawartości tlenu na wydłużenie spawu i ostateczną wytrzymałość na rozciąganie. W badaniach doświadczalnych wykazano, że domieszki CaF2 oraz NiO są istotnymi czynnikami wpływającymi na wytrzymałość na rozciąganie, podczas gdy domieszka FeMn nie ma istotnego wpływu. Oceniono także wpływ współczynnika zasadowości topnika i równoważnika węglowego spawu na wydłużenie procentowe spawu.

Opis:
Purpose: Experimentally substantiate the possibility of using the developed jet-centrifugal spraying device in plants spraying technologies. Design/methodology/approach: Many years of experience in creating spraying devices for solving practical problems in various industries made it possible to propose a design diagram of a single-phase jet-centrifugal spraying device. The tests were aimed at achieving device characteristics that are acceptable for use in plants spraying technologies such as jet coverage distance, droplet size and droplet deposition area (spray diameter). For this a several tests series with different design parameters was done. Before testing, the tightness of the device body was checked (the holding time under a pressure of 1 MPa is not less than 2 minutes). Findings: Based on the obtained jet coverage distance, droplet size and droplet deposition area, the developed spray device of some modifications can be used in plants spraying technologies. However, it is necessary to determine the quality of the spray device according to the BCPC classification; the device should be tested with some insecticides, fungicides and in plants spraying technologies to develop recommendations for their use. Research limitations/implications: The influence of design features of developed jetcentrifugal spray device on the jet coverage distance, droplet size and droplet deposition area was studied. Practical implications: The results obtained are useful in the field of improving national plants spraying technologies in order to improve the quality of the plant protection agent application and reduce the loss of the drug into the environment. Originality/value: To ensure maximum efficiency the proposed design of the jetcentrifugal spray device can be upgraded directly by the farmer by installing interchangeable nozzles that are attached with a union nut. Replaceable nozzles have different diameters and modifications and can be selected depending on the required jet coverage distance and spraying dispersion according to the current environmental conditions.

Opis:
Sweet orange fruits were exposed to vapor heat treatment (50°C) in water bath for 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 min in plastic covered structure. The data were recorded on different physico chemical factors immediately after the storage and after seven days simulated marketing under ambient condition (20°C). Low temperature storage enhanced weight loss, surface pitting, disease incidence, total soluble solids accumulation, TSS/Acid ratio but decreased reducing sugars, acidity and ascorbic acid content. Chilling exposure up to 45 days had no significant effect on weight loss and TSS. However, increased weight loss (2.63%), TSS (11.75), TSS/Acid ratio (8.45 ºBrix), disease incidence (8.93%) and lowest reducing sugars (3.90) were noted in sweet orange exposed to chilling temperature for 75 days. Among the VHT durations, the highest weight loss (2.29%) was found in VHT for 0 min while the highest TSS (11.81 ºBrix), TSS/Acid ratio (8.10) and disease incidence (6.22%) and least reducing sugars (4.12%) were found in VHT 20 for min. Vapor heat treatment ranging from 5–10 min resulted in lowest weight loss (1.79%), TSS (10.81 ºBrix) TSS/Acid ratio (7.33), disease incidence (1.00%) and highest reducing sugars (4.75%) in sweet orange fruits. However, non-reducing sugars were least affected by both LTSs and VHTs. It is concluded that the chilling exposure (5°C) beyond 45 days aggravated the decline of fruit physio-chemical quality characteristics. Whereas, VHT with 5–10 min maintained the sweet orange fruit quality during simulated marketing; however, VHT of 15–20 min adversely affected the sweet orange fruit quality attributes.

Opis:
Purpose: Water is vital for the sustenance of every life form. Urbanization, growing population and industrial development has led to exploitation of water resources globally. This study assesses quality of water resources of Mohammedia prefecture. Design/methodology/approach: The water quality analysis was carried out based on physio-chemical and heavy metal concentrations. The physio-chemical analysis comprised of status of concentration, overall quality and water pollution index evaluation. The heavy metal evaluation consisted of Ecological Risk Index, non-carcinogenic risk and carcinogenic risk assessment. Findings: The landfill near Ben Nfifikh River reported insignificant (WPI<1) – low level of pollution (>1≤1.5) for surface and groundwater points. However, the groundwater for Zenata region was found to pose both carcinogenic (CRt > 0.0001, range 0.4-35.31) and non-carcinogenic risks (HQ>1, range 6 -34) of higher degree rendering it unfit for human consumption. Hence, this study concludes that groundwater resources should not as water supply; instead, Oud El Maleh River can serve as surface water source for meeting requirements of Zenata region. Research limitations/implications: The data obtained can be categorized as landfill area near river Nfifikh and landfill area near river El Maleh. Both areas have been investigated for groundwater and surface water quality assessment. Practical implications: This study demonstrates the need to study the characteristics of groundwater (depth, flow rate, water renewal, etc.) before arranging a waste dump. This problem is especially relevant for arid countries, since residents experience a shortage of water, as well as a lack of rainfall provides a weak renewal of groundwater, which can contribute to the accumulation of a higher concentration of carcinogens in groundwater and provide a high risk to public health. If policymakers in arid countries and decision-makers have effective water quality maps, then the country can be more efficiently managed water resources without risking the population. Originality/value: The current study is planned as a multi-stage, each of which is supposed to conduct field studies of groundwater and surface water quality with appropriate parameters, analysis of institutional reports and related scientific studies in order to create an effective water quality map for rational water use.
