A Survey of The Optimization of The Flexible Job Shop Problem | ||
|
Abstract: The flexible job shop problem is an important problem in modern manufacturing systems. It is known to be an NP-hard problem. The optimization of this problem can bring in considerable improvements in the manufacturing efficiency. In recent studies, it has attracted the attention of most researchers in this field. Several metaheuristic methods were proposed to solve this problem. These methods started with exact algorithms and later approximate methods, which include heuristic methods, evolutionary algorithms, swarm intelligence, local search and hybrid algorithms, were introduced to cope with the development and the growing scale of the flexible job shop problem. In this paper we explore the algorithms that are most commonly used to solve this problem. This paper also aims to evaluate and compare the performance of these algorithms.

A Four-Element Planar UWB-MIMO Antenna System Comprising of Plus-Sign Stub for High Isolation | ||
|
Abstract: A four-element planar UWB-MIMO antenna system with plus-sign stub (for achieving high isolation) is proposed here. The complete antenna system is constructed on 52mm x 52mm, FR-4 substrate (dielectric constant=4.3). The structure consists of 4 identical antenna elements, with each element placed orthogonal to its adjacent element on the top of the substrate. The partial ground plane with circular slots is utilized on the back of the substrate. The antenna is simulated using CST Microwave Studio. Simulated S11<-10dB, in the entire operating band (2.9 -12.9 GHz) and the isolation among the elements is observed to be less than -20 dB in most of the band. Maximum gain of 4.82dB is observed at center frequency (7.9 GHz). VSWR<2 is present throughout the band. The impedance bandwidth of 126.58% shows its candidature for many wireless UWB communication applications. Keywords: Four-Element UWB-MIMO Antenna, Orthogonal, Plus-sign Stub, High Isolation.

Elaboration of Different Pore Blocking Model for Phenol Removal using Disk Shaped Ceramic Membrane | ||
|
Abstract: Membrane fouling is mainly associated with the deposition of solute molecules on the membrane surface. The performance of a given membrane is found to be degraded due to membrane fouling and hence it results into a significant decline in the permeate flux. Therefore it is very necessary to interpret the fouling mechanism in order to predict the profile of permeate flux. The present study illustrates the mechanism of membrane fouling through describing four pore blocking models such as complete pore blocking, standard pore blocking, intemediate pore blocking and cake filtration. The model parameters were also evaluated at varying trans-membrane pressures ranging from 196 to 392 kPa. The accuracy of the fitted model was further judged in terms of higher value of regression coefficient (R2) and here also it is confirmed from Table 1 that cake filtration model exhibits higher values of R2 (≈ 0.98). The degree of membrane fouling was indicated by model parameter k. The values of permeate fluxes calculated from different models are found to be less than the experimental values of the permeate flux indicating the under prediction of flux profile.

|
Abstract: The applications of conveyor are increasing day by day in the manufacturing industries due to its flexibility and accuracy in material handling. Industries like packaging and food processing uses conveyor for the rapid production and less power utilization in material handling. In general, only a single type of object likes tablets, bottles or trays are monitored and controlled on a single conveyor in pharmaceutical industries. The trays or boxes on the conveyor are to be stopped at the required station and material to be filled in the trays on conveyor. This can be done using the induction type proximity sensors and counters placed at different positions in the system. In given system, we have done the design and fabrication of semi-automatic tablet counting and shifting mechanism in belt conveyor used in the packaging and transportation system in tablet packaging for pharmaceutical industries. The number of trays/boxes to be filled by tablets can be transfer by using arrangements of proximity sensors and pneumatic locking along with counting system. The output packaging fixed can be easily altered in between the process. Keywords: Tablets, Packaging, Counter, Pneumatic, Sensors, Belt Conveyor. References:

Engineering Technology Students Response to Hands-on Fluid Power Exercises | ||
|
Abstract: Hands-on interventions have been the focus of many studies; however, they frequently are not done using a population of students involved in active learning. Engineering technology programs are established with the premise that the program will encourage hands-on exercises, in field experiences, and contact with those that have experience in the field. These researchers work with engineering technology students throughout the academic year, some of them have experience in other programs such as engineering, mathematics, and business. They find the contrast between these groups of students often remarkable. Some studies have focused on the cognitive development of this population, others have focused on survey response that includes student or graduate introspection regarding their education and career path. Few focus on how the students respond to short, hands-on tasks involving the use of existing skills, and those they acquire in class. This study presents a set of exercises to students and analyzes the level of engagement, interest, and knowledge gain by asking them to carefully consider the answers to three questions and then respond to those questions. The researchers focus on the qualitative and quantitative answers, as well as student interaction following the exercises. Purdue Polytechnic is one of Purdue’s University Colleges and has 9 remote locations spread across the state in addition to main campus. Students located at main campus tend to be traditional students that matriculate immediately after high school graduation, while those at the remote campus’ are more likely to matriculate a year or more after high school graduation. The interactive hands-on exercises were tested on students located in one of the remote sites and the results are compared to other remote sites and to the main campus, as well. These groups also are different in size ranging from a few students to nearly 100. The data in this study is analyzed as an aggregate and as separate locations. The researchers find that these students have more intuition to solve problems, as noted by past research on this population, done in a different manner.

Analysis on Automatic Opinion Extraction from Product Reviews | ||
|
Abstract: Opinion mining also known as sentiment analysis is the computational study of subjective information towards different entities. Entities usually refer to products, organizations, services or/and their features, functions, components and attributes. Opinion mining is a major task of Natural Language Processing (NLP) that studies methods for identifying and extracting opinions from written text, such as product reviews, discussion groups, forums and blogs. Natural Language Processing techniques and lexicon-based approaches for opinion mining are used to extract aspects and customer opinions. Extracting opinion words and product features is an important task in many sentiment analysis applications. Opinion lexicon also plays a very important role because it is very useful for a wide range of tasks. Although there are several opinion lexicons available, it is hard to maintain a universal opinion lexicon to cover all domains. So, it is necessary to expand a known opinion lexicon that is useful for some domains. The aim of this system is to automatically expand opinion lexicon and to extract product features based on the dependency relations. Stanford Core NLP dependency parser is used to identify the dependency relations between features and opinions. Extraction rules are predefined according to these dependency relations. This work proposed an algorithm based on double Propagation to extract feature and opinions. The polarity orientation is annotated by using Vader lexicon. Unlike the existing approaches, this system contributes verbs opinions and verb product features. In order to increase the precision and recall, the system also proposes additional patterns besides 8 rules in Double Propagation. And, general words that are not features and adjectives that are not opinions are filtered in the proposed system. According to experimental studies, our approach is better than the existing state of the art approach. Keywords: Opinion Mining, Opinions, Aspects References:

Investigation of Glass Fiber Potential in Soil Stabilization | ||
|
Abstract: The use of natural fibers to reinforce soil is an old and ancient idea. Traditional geosynthetics such as geotextile, geogrid etc. have proved to be efficient, and are increasingly used in geotechnical engineering. In contrast, the use of glass fibers in soil needs further investigation. Soil samples were obtained from borrow pits at Ajibode and Chapel both located in the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria and stabilized with procured glass fiber at proportions of 0.4%. 0.8%, 1.2%, 1.6%, 2.0%, 2.5% and 3.0% by weight. Tests such as particle size analysis, compaction and California bearing ratio (CBR) were carried out on the unstabilized (control) soil samples. Thereafter, the compaction and CBR tests were carried out on stabilized soil samples. The results showed an improvement in the two soils’ maximum dry density and CBR on addition of the glass fibers. The glass fibers had optimum effect on the soils between 1.2% and 1.6% of soil samples. Therefore, incorporating glass fiber into the soils in the required quantity will enhance soils’ CBR and density.

Potential of Oyster Shell Ash Activated with Cement as soil Stabilizer for Road Construction | ||
|
Abstract: The study investigated the suitability of oyster shell ash activated with cement as additive to improve soil geotechnical properties. Three Lateritic soil samples were collected and stabilized with varying percentages of oyster shell ash (OYSA) from 2% - 15% activated with 5 % cement by dry weight. The mixtures’ geotechnical properties: Atterberg limit, specific gravity, California bearing ratio (CBR) and shear strength parameters (cohesion and angle of friction) were determined. Chemical analysis of the oyster shell ash was carried out in laboratory. Results showed that the OYSA is rich in calcium and silicon oxides (CaO and SiO2) with other oxides. OYSA addition led to increase in specific gravity (2.42 to 2.43 sample 1; 2.24 to 2.50 sample 2 and 2.25 - 2.28 sample 3) , improvement in Atterberg’s limit through decrease in the plasticity index, increase in the CBR (22.5% - 145% sample 1, 0.54% - 30.78% sample 2 and 1.56% - 54.54% sample 3) and improvement of cohesive shear strength property (50 - 65kN/m2 sample 1, 20 - 21 kN/m2 sample 2, and 42 – 78 kN/m2 sample 3) ) due to the formation of cementitious layer and alteration in the structure and grain composition of soil samples. Therefore, using 6% OYSA activated with 5% cement will enhance soil geotechnical properties. Keywords: Oyster Shell Ash, Soil Stabilization, Geotechnical Properties, Lateritic Soil References: 1. T.
