NorazlinThe Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is a one of the requirements which was required by the Automotive Industries Action Group (AIAG) to all the automotive suppliers and manufacturers worldwide through the TS16949 Quality System. There were a lot of dicrepencies detected on implementing the FMEA which directly related to the user experinces and knowledge. The descrepencies cause the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 24 May 2014 · 13,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTYPICAL MEXICAN AGROINDUSTRIAL RESIDUES AS SUPPORTS FOR SOLID-STATE FERMENTATIONDulce A. Flores-Maltos, Solange I. Mussatto, Juan C. Contreras Esquivel et al.Biological wastes contain several reusable substances of high value such as soluble sugars and fiber. Direct disposal of such wastes to soil or landfill causes serious environmental problems. Thus, the development of potential value-added processes for these wastes is highly attractive. These biological wastes can be used as support-substrates in Solid-State Fermentation (SSF) to produce industrially relevant metabolites with great … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPossibility and Evidence-Based Reliability Analysis and Design OptimizationHong-Zhong Huang, Liping He, Yu Liu et al.Engineering design under uncertainty has gained considerable attention in recent years. A great multitude of new design optimization methodologies and reliability analysis approaches are put forth with the aim of accommodating various uncertainties. Uncertainties in practical engineering applications are commonly classified into two categories, i.e., aleatory uncertainty and epistemic uncertainty. Aleatory uncertainty arises because of unpredictable variation in the performance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 7,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater Flow Systems and Their Response to Climate Change: A Need for a Water-System View ApproachJoel J. Carrillo-Rivera, Antonio CardonaProblem statement: The interest in early hydrogeological studies was the aquifer unit, as it is the physical media that stores and permits groundwater transfers from the recharge zone to the discharge zone, making groundwater available to boreholes for water extraction. Approach: Recently, the aquifer concept has been complemented by the groundwater flow system theory, where groundwater may be defined by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 7 Apr 2012 · 8,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Knowledge Management Process Practices in Very Small Software CompaniesShuib Basri, Rory V. O’ConnorProblem statement: Software development is distinct from other types of engineering because the product is intangible, progress is not explicit and team members rely on the documentation of others to review progress. In addition, there are no standard processes, which make it difficult to predict which process will cause development problems. The discourse of knowledge management is becoming more evident … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 6 Mar 2012 · 8,195 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLearning from Lessons Learned: Project Management Research ProgramKam JugdevProblem statement: When we fail to learn from our own mistakes or those of others, we tend to repeat the mistakes. This study discusses lessons learned as important ways of gathering and sharing both formal and informal project knowledge. Approach: The study presents findings of three studies from a research program on lessons learned. The first study is a content … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 9 Jan 2012 · 13,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClinical and Functional Profile of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Patients: A One Year Follow UpMarco Orsini, Marcos R.G. de Freitas, Osvaldo J.M. Nascimento et al.Problem statement: Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive and degenerative disease that affects the anterior horn motor neurons of the spinal cord and pyramidal tracts. In Brazil, there are few epidemiological data on this disease. Recently, some important findings have been reported, allowing a better understanding on the underlying processes of neuronal death, as well as the characteristics of … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Oct 2011 · 7,774 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Application of Indigenous Knowledge for Conservation and Development of the Production Process of Silk ClothsNuananong Prathumnet, Songkoon Chantachon, Kosit Paengsoi et al.Problem statement: This study generated from the process of production of silk cloths as the Isan (northeast Thailand) identity with complicated production stages. It takes a long time with low compensations and it is unworthy of investment. Isan people of a new generation have gone to be hired to do other kinds of work. They are not interested in adhering … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,133 accessesView PDFCite
