the effect of the operating conditions (temperature, time, ph, enzyme level and pulp consistency) used in the enzymatic step of a xp (cartazyme-hydrogen peroxide) sequence for bleaching kraft pulp from bagasse on various properties of the resulting pulp and paper sheet products was studied. the quality of bagasse used, was examined by its yield, brightness,viscosity and the kappa number. finall...

this paper presents the findings of experimental investigations into the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and approach angle on the machinability of titanium (grade-5) alloy. also the comparison for the two different cutting materials inserts polycrystalline diamond (pcd) and cubic boron nitride (cbn) with similar tool geometry for similar machining parameters is also carried o...

in the present work a ph-dependent cloud point extraction procedure using ph-sensitive hydrogel polymer was applied for preconcentration and spectrophotometric determination of the hg(ii) as its thio micher's ketone complex. central composite design (ccd) and response surface method were applied to design the experiments and find out the optimum conditions. four factors entitled concentration o...

When solving the control co-design (CCD) problem using simultaneous strategy in a deterministic manner, uncertainty stemming from stochastic design variables is ignored, and might have negative influence on performance of dynamic system. In attempting to overcome undesirable effect uncertainty, this research investigates reliability-based (RB-CCD) presents single-loop framework for RB-CCD based...

This paper addresses culturally rooted factors within user interface design. The design implications of globalisation are discussed, together with the related processes of internationalisation, localisation, ‘glocalisation’, iconisation and culturalisation, in order to establish a basis for a new approach to HCI design. The potential for a more diverse culturecentred, design-based system—‘Cultu...
