an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary crude protein and methionine levels on quality and quantity of egg production. fifteen diets formulated with 3 levels of protein (13, 14 and 15%) and 5 levels of methionine (0.25, 0.28, 0.31, 0.34 and 0.37%) and fed to 420 birds in a 3×5 factorial arrangement. each diet was randomly fed to 4 replicates of 7 birds each and fed for 3 p...

this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of different levels of butyric acid triglyceride and prebiotics on performance, egg quality traits and blood lipids of laying hens.  a 2 × 4 factorial experiment with 4 levels of butyric acid triglyceride (0%, 0.15%, 0.30%, 0.45%) and 2 levels of prebiotic (0 and 0.15%) based a completely randomized design were conducted. one hundred and ninety-t...

The production of extracellular amylase by Bacillus subtilis has been studied in solid-state fermentation (SSF). In a sequential order, various process parameters were optimized for maximum amylase production. The tested process parameters were different solid substrates such as banana husk (BH), water melon husk (WMH), lentil bran (LB), wheat bran (WB), melon husk (MH) and maize oil cake (MOC)...

this experiment carried out to evaluate replacing effects of oyster shell (os) with filter cake (fc) of sugar beet industry on performance and quantity and quality of egg in  laying hens .in this trial the filter cake in two physical forms of powder and pellet in  five levels of 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% replaced for oyster shell. each treatment had 3 replications. the experiment lasted 3 periods...

Three ethanol extracts, chamomile (CHA), clove (CLO) and tarragon (TAR), were tested at five doses (0, 250, 500, 750 and 1000 µL/L) to determine their effects on in vitro organic matter digestibility (IVOMD), metabolizable energy (ME), net energy of lactation (NEL), short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), microbial mass (MM) and rumen fermentation kinetics of a 40:60 forage: concentrate diet using in v...

in this study, the performance of an irreversible regenerative brayton cycle is sought through power maximizations using finite-time thermodynamic concept in finite-size components. optimizations are performed using a genetic algorithm. in order to take into account the finite-time and finite-size concepts in the current problem, a dimensionless mass-flow rate parameter is used to deploy time v...

Welcome to this book on configuration systems! The purpose of this book is to expose the reader to a field of Artificial Intelligence that has been successfully integrated and used in the industry for more than 30 years. This book provides configuration-related material for interested readers from the fields of industry, education, and research. 1.1 What Is Configuration? This part of the book ...

Based on the position of a single CODP, the production planning of mass customization is divided into two stages, make-to-stock production before CODP and make-to-order production after CODP. However, in the case of multiple CODPS, production planning of mass customization can be much more complex. This paper presents a dynamic mass customization system, that is, a three-stage production planni...
