Is your company lean? It can be, with the help of MSU’s Institute of Furniture Manufacturing and Management. Faculty in the Institute have been looking in depth at lean processes and how they can be implemented in Mississippi furniture and supplying companies. A series of studies that relate specifi cally to the development and use of lean manufacturing techniques in furniture and wood componen...

The increased number of furniture orders led to a significant amount material waste. Bahana Raya produces 5-7 m3 multiplex and blockboard Multiplex waste in the form lumber wood chips has been solely utilized as fuel for stoves being used cooking worker lunches, with remainder simply burned This study was carried out provide solutions dealing existing terms crushing machine. A tool or machine w...

We prove the existence of Sasakian metrics with positive Ricci curvature on certain highly connected odd dimensional manifolds. In particular, we show that manifolds homeomorphic to the 2k-fold connected sum of S × S admit Sasakian metrics with positive Ricci curvature for all k. Furthermore, a formula for computing the diffeomorphism types is given and tables are presented for dimensions 7 and...

The extensions of the environment with the integration of sensing systems in any space, in conjunction with ubiquitous computing are enabling the so-called Smart Space Sensor Networks. This new generation of networks are offering full connectivity with any object, through the Internet of Things (IoT) and/or the Web, i.e., the Web of Things. These connectivity capabilities are making it feasible...

In this note I shall continue the study of the geometry of the moduli-space of pairs of points in 3 dimensions. I show that this space, H̃, is the base space of a canonical family of associative k -algebras in dimension 4. The study of the corresponding family of derivations leads to a natural way of introducing an action of the gauge Lie algebras of the Standard Model, in H̃. The results fit wel...

The institution of sweeping the roads, streets and compounds of public buildings in most towns is a public nuisance for which the city fathers are responsible. The dust rises in the air and falls into the houses within its reach, especially into the rooms on the first floor. All such surfaces which harbour loose dust should be watered before they are swept. The floors should be mopped with wet ...
