چکیده
This paper discusses the performance modeling and availability analysis of Yarn Dyeing System of a Textile Industry. The Textile Industry is a complex and repairable engineering system. Yarn Dyeing System of Textile Industry consists of five subsystems arranged in series configuration. For performance modeling and analysis of availability, a performance evaluating model has been developed with the help of mathematical formulation based on Markov-Birth-Death Process. The differential equations have been developed on the basis of Probabilistic Approach using a Transition Diagram. These equations have further been solved using normalizing condition in order to develop the steady state availability, a performance measure of the system concerned. The system performance has been further analyzed with the help of decision matrices. These matrices provide various availability levels for different combinations of failure and repair rates for various subsystems. The findings of this paper are therefore, considered to be useful for the analysis of availability and determination of the best possible maintenance strategies which can be implemented in future to enhance the system performance. Keywords—Availability Analysis, Markov Process, Performance Modeling, Steady State Availability.

Yarn tenacity modeling using artificial neural networks and development of a decision support system based on genetic algorithms
Yarn tenacity is one of the most important properties in yarn production. This paper addresses modeling of yarn tenacity as well as optimally determining the amounts of the effective inputs to produce yarn with desired tenacity. The artificial neural network is used as a suitable structure for tenacity modeling of cotton yarn with 30 Ne. As the first step for modeling, the empirical data is col...
متن کاملAchillea Millefolium, a New Source of Natural Dye for Wool Dyeing
Today, natural colorants are emerging globally due to the fact that they are safer and more environmentally-friendly. Natural dyes have been employed in dyeing Persian carpet piles for many years. In this study, the dried Achillea was used for dyeing wool yarns. The Iranian wool yarn was scoured, mordanted using Cu, Sn, Al salts and then dyed with different amounts of dried Achillea powder. Tag...
متن کاملApplication of Derivative Spectrophotometry to Determine the Relation Between Color Intensity and Dye Concentration of Madder
The Derivative Spectrophotometry usually improves resolution bands, eliminates the influence of background and provides more defined fingerprints than original spectra, hence enhancing the detectability of minor spectral features. In this work, different madder types were collected and applied for dyeing woolen yarns used in Persian carpet in conventional pre-mordanting and dyeing process with ...
متن کاملYarn Hairiness Determination Using Image Processing
Yarn hairiness is one of the key parameters influencing the quality of yarn.It is observed that yarn quality has been deduced based on yarn length and diameter only. But these parameters do not provide much information about yarn quality. Thus it is proposed to derive more yarn quality parameters like yarn hairiness, uniformity of yarn and its thickness. In textile industry, image processing is...
