The efficacy of cold atmospheric pressure plasma (CAPP) with ambient air as working gas for the degradation of selected mycotoxins was studied. Deoxynivalenol, zearalenone, enniatins, fumonisin B1, and T2 toxin produced by Fusarium spp., sterigmatocystin produced by Aspergillus spp. and AAL toxin produced by Alternaria alternata were used. The kinetics of the decay of mycotoxins exposed to plas...

Knowledge discovery in database have been attracting a significant amount of research, industry attention in recent years. Process planning knowledge (PPK) is one of the most important knowledge in mechanical manufacturing enterprise. The traditional method of turning data into knowledge relies on manual analysis and interpretation. This paper analyzes the source and composing of process planni...

With the development of Information Technology, distributed integrated system of PDM and CAPP has being focused on by many researchers. To enhance the security access control ability of the integrated PDM and CAPP system, an operational model based on attribute certificate with roles was made. It can prevent unknown entity from accessing to the product data in the integrated system. The functio...

Studies have shown that previous psychopathy models may only address limited aspects of interpersonal and emotional deficits when being applied to the Chinese cultural context. Understanding differences in manifestation psychopathic personality requires a more comprehensive conceptual map allows for examination detailed or nuanced psychopathy. The present study aimed apply Comprehensive Assessm...

The purpose of construction management is to successfully accomplish projects, which requires a continuous monitoring and control procedure. To dynamically predict project success, this research proposes an Evolutionary Support Vector Machine Inference Model (ESIM). ESIM is developed based on a hybrid approach that fuses support vector machine (SVM) and fast messy genetic algorithm (fmGA). SVM ...

Recently, extensive efforts have been made on the application of expert system technique to solving the process planning task in the machining domain. This paper introduces a new formal method to design CAPP expert systems. The formal method is applied to provide a contour of the CAPP expert system building technology. Theoretical aspects of the formalism are described and illustrated by an exa...

Computer aided process planning (CAPP) and scheduling are two major activities in a modern manufacturing system. The existing CAPP systems have not taken account of shop floor conditions while developing process plans. This paper discusses the importance of integration of scheduling and CAPP and proposes a method for the same. There can be several methods to machine a part and several machines ...

Development of information technology industry provided great possibilities in the area of integration of diff erent CAx systems, such as CAD, CAM, CAE and others. In order to successfully link systems of automated-design (or Computer Aided Design CAD) with automated manufacturing systems (or Computer Aided Manufacturing – CAM), automation of manufacturing process planning is needed, i.e. CAPP ...

An important process-planning task in sheet-metal manufacturing is the determination of bending sequences for individual components. Computer-aided generation of these sequences, as part of a computer-aided process-planning (CAPP) system, can relieve the workload of process-planning departments, this being especially important in small batch manufacturing environments. This paper discusses the ...
