CAPP Terminal Device, Size #2 for teenaged and adult amputees offers an alternative to hooks and hands available today. CAPP TD 2 is intended to be pleasing in appearance; it blends with the forearm in shape, colour and material to give a continuous flowing natural look. It was designed to provide secure grip through the combined action of a closing spring, a full frictional, resilient cover an...

Presented in the paper is a C-space based computer automated process planning (CAPP) algorithm for freeform die-cavity machining, which is an extension of the hierarchical CAPP model proposed earlier by the authors. In order to demonstrate its validity, the proposed CAPP algorithm has been implemented and applied to actual die-cavity machining examples. q 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights r...

The paper deals with aspect of Computer Aided Process Planning (CAPP) systems in mechanical engineering area. The paper presents some elaborated and developed methods and module for CAPP. The self-teaching module for CAPP system and selective classification method will be introduced.

Although there is significant industrial need for comprehensive computer-aided process planning systems (CAPP), most traditional CAPP solutions have been fragmented in nature. This is because each CAPP domain (assembly, machining, inspection, etc.) has been treated independently. This paper argues in favor of adopting ‘feature-orientation’ as the unifying theme and describes a Generic CAPP Supp...

Considerable research and development efforts have been devoted to Computer Aided Process Planning (CAPP). Nevertheless, because the CAPP problem is complex and is characterized by many interdependent technical and business parameters and variables, no viable off-the-shelf solution is yet available that can be easily or widely implemented in industry. This paper presents an overview of the CAPP...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of alcohol use disorders (AUD) on community-acquired pneumococcal pneumonia (CAPP) admissions, in terms of in-hospital mortality, prolonged stay and increased hospital spending. METHODS Retrospective observational study of a sample of CAPP patients from the minimum basic datasets of 87 Spanish hospitals during 2008-2010. Mortali...

Capuramycin-related compounds, including A-500359s and A-503083s, are nucleoside antibiotics that inhibit the enzyme bacterial translocase I involved in peptidoglycan cell wall biosynthesis. Within the biosynthetic gene cluster for the A-500359s exists a gene encoding a putative aminoglycoside 3-phosphotransferase that was previously demonstrated to be highly expressed during the production of ...

Abstract: A framework for dynamic classification with computer aided process planning (CAPP) systems is presented. The dynamic classification is used to provide flexibility facility status information while the CAPP system is used to modify the retrieved process plans. The paper deals with aspect of classification systems in CAPP systems based on Group Technology (GT). The dynamic classificatio...

We present an architecture called the CAPP (Computing And Prefetching Processor). The CAPP provides high performance for loop-based scientific and signal processing programs by improving memory system performance by providing a decoupled prefetch processor. The prefetch processor improves performance by relieving the main processor of prefetching instruction overhead and allowing the prefetch d...

Compelling evidence suggests that Cold Atmospheric Pressure Plasma (CAPP) has potential as a new cancer therapy. However, knowledge about cellular signaling events and toxicity subsequent to plasma treatment is still poorly documented. The aim of this study was to focus on the interaction between 3 different types of plasma (He, He-O2, He-N2) and human epithelial cell lines to gain better insig...
