In recent years, Latin American countries have used their economic growth to improve their technologies applied to Healthcare. Both the private and the public sector are aware that the only way to improve the quality of life of people is through Health, Food and Education. This economic recovery is reflected in a steady and sustained increase in Healthcare spending, and together with the depend...

The objective of the thesis is to provide a framework for understanding and improving service parts quality management in a high technology industry. The research carried out during the internship is used as a case study for understanding and improving service parts quality management. The semiconductor capital equipment industry is primarily technology driven and is highly competitive. Capital...

The generalized systematization of application systems and means the welding equipment on basis mechatronic mechanical designs concerning maintenance operational characteristics welds welded layers at electric arc welding-surfacing by a melting electrode is offered. It shown that improvement properties joint can be obtained introducing new components parts into standard equipment. estimation te...

If your irrigation system is not performing as efficiently as you would like then it may be time to consider updating. This can be done by renewing sprinklers, installing a more advanced control panel, renewing that worn out pump — or a complete redesign of the whole system using modern technology. If you already have Weather-matic equipment installed, Prime offers a full repair and maintenance...

The article discusses a way to improve the survivability of the power system affected by the High Altitude Electromagnetic Pulse (HEMP) through establishment of inventory of electronic equipment replacement modules, particularly those of digital protective relays. It is shown that the known methods of spare parts quantity optimization cannot be used in this case. Thus, another method is offered...

This paper reviews the implementation of an on-site comparison of quantum Hall resistance standards and their scaling to other values. This comparison, organized by the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM), is registered as BIPM.EM-K12 and has for objective the verification of the international equivalence of the representation of the ohm between National Metrology Institutes within...

Stress analysis plays a significant role in the design of parts and structures that must carry load [1]. In this study, Crane hook which is one of lifting equipment, frequently used in material handling is investigated. Analytical (Straight beam, curved beam & Winkler-Bach approximation), experimental (Photo-Elasticity) and numerical (FEM) methods were used by various researchers to study stres...

Modern mechanical engineering is characterized by high energy consumption, which specific share of cost can reach from 15 to 25%. The task research energy-efficient technological methods processing, will reduce the and duration production cycle.As a criterion for optimizing machining process, it proposed use quantitative indicators intensity cutting. feasibility using strengthening in process m...

We describe here our efforts to make it easier to perform certain well-known pieces from the live electronic music repertory, without resorting to special hardware or proprietary software. We hope that these realizations of the electronic parts of the pieces will be longer-lasting than previous realizations have been, and that they will make it possible to perform the music with a much smaller ...
