The purpose of this study are to (1) determine the combination of inputs used in producing products such as beef sausages and veal sausage meatball; and (2) determine the optimal combination whether the product can provide the maximum profit. In order to determine the combination of inputs and maximum benefits can be used linear programming with graphical and simplex method. The valuation result shows that the optimal input combination would give a profit of Rp. 1.115 million per day.

An increasing number of electric vehicles (EVs) are replacing gasoline vehicles in the automobile market due to the economic and environmental benefits. The high penetration of EVs is one of the main challenges in the future smart grid. As a result of EV charging, an excessive overloading is expected in different elements of the power system, especially at the distribution level. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of EVs on the distribution system under three loading conditions (light, intermediate, and full). For each case, we estimate the maximum number of EVs that can be charged simultaneously before reaching different system limitations, including the undervoltage, overcurrent, and transformer capacity limit. Finally, we use the 19-node distribution system to study these limitations under different loading conditions. The 19-node system is one of the typical distribution systems in Jordan. Our work estimates the upper limit of the possible EV penetration before reaching the system stability margins.

This study presents a noncontact electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement system to replace conventional ECG electrode pads during ECG measurement. The proposed noncontact electrode design comprises a surface guard ring, the optimal input resistance, a ground guard ring, and an optimal voltage divider feedback. The surface and ground guard rings are used to reduce environmental noise. The optimal input resistor mitigates distortion caused by the input bias current, and the optimal voltage divider feedback increases the gain. Simulated gain analysis was subsequently performed to determine the most suitable parameters for the design, and the system was combined with a capacitive driven right leg circuit to reduce common-mode interference. The present study simulated actual environments in which interference is present in capacitive ECG signal measurement. Both in the case of environmental interference and motion artifact interference, relative to capacitive ECG electrodes, the proposed electrodes measured ECG signals with greater stability. In terms of R–R intervals, the measured ECG signals exhibited a 98.6% similarity to ECGs measured using contact ECG systems. The proposed noncontact ECG measurement system based on capacitive sensing is applicable for use in everyday life.

Naturally limited stiffness of cantilever elements due to lack of constraint from other structural components, together with low structural damping, causes intensive and slow-decaying transient vibrations as well as low stability margins for self-excited vibrations. In cases of dimensional limitations (e.g., boring bars), such common antivibration means as dynamic vibration absorbers have limited effectiveness due to low mass ratios. This paper describes novel concepts of structural optimization of cantilever components by using combinations of rigid and light materials for their design. Two examples are given: tool holders (boring bars) and robot arms. Optimized boring bars demonstrate substantially increased natural frequencies, together with the possibility of greatly enhanced mass ratios for dynamic vibration absorbers. Machining tests with combination boring bars have been performed in comparison with conventional boring bars showing superior performance of the former. Computer optimization of combination-type robot arms has shown a potential of 10–60 percent reduction in tip-of-arm deflection, together with a commensurate reduction of driving torque for a given acceleration, and a higher natural frequencies (i.e., shorter transients). Optimization has been performed for various ratios of bending and joint compliance and various payloads.

AbstractConventional models of data envelopment analysis (DEA) are based on the constant and variable returns-to-scale production technologies. Any optimal input and output weights of the multiplier DEA models based on these technologies are interpreted as being the most favorable for the decision making unit (DMU) under the assessment when the latter is benchmarked against the set of all observed DMUs. In this paper we consider a very large class of DEA models based on arbitrary polyhedral technologies, which includes almost all known convex DEA models. We highlight the fact that the conventional interpretation of the optimal input and output weights in such models is generally incorrect, which raises a question about the meaning of multiplier models. We address this question and prove that the optimal solutions of such models show the DMU under the assessment in the best light in comparison to the entire technology, but not necessarily in comparison to the set of observed DMUs. This result allows a clear and meaningful interpretation of the optimal solutions of multiplier models, including known models with a complex constraint structure whose interpretation has been problematic and left unaddressed in the existing literature.
