Abstract Both loop fancy yarns and frotte fancy yarns belong to the group of yarns with continuous effects. The difference between frotte and loop yarn relies on the fact that the loop yarn is constructed with two core yarns and the frotte yarn is constructed with only one core yarn. The differences are evident in the shape of these two types of fancy yarns. These shape differences are the functions of the tensions of component yarns during the twisting process. The shape and construction of the fancy yarn influence its properties. The properties of loop and frotte fancy yarns, woven and knitted fabrics are compared in this article in order to find out the optimal yarn’s and fabric’s production condition to satisfy the final user and maintain low production costs. In terms of economy aspects only, the frotte fancy yarns are believed to be cheaper in production due to lower quantity of components utilize for their production to compare with loop fancy yarns, under conditions of the same settings of ring twisting frame.

ResumoO Agronegócio é responsável por cerca de ¼ das riquezas geradas anualmente no Brasil. Dentro deste universo a cultura cafeeira é responsável por cerca de 10% do volume total das exportações deste setor. A viabilidade da produção cafeeira em qualquer escala depende fortemente da agregação de qualidade no produto final, eficiência nos processos e o controle dos custos da atividade. Os pequenos e médios cafeicultores, de maneira geral, ainda carecem de uma estrutura administrativa que lhes permita conhecer e gerencia adequadamente suas finanças, apesar de existir uma consciência da necessidade do conhecimento e gerenciamento dos custos de produção o que ainda vemos são as finanças das atividades sendo misturadas com as finanças pessoais, impossibilitando qualquer tipo de análise precisa e ainda, uma forte tendência de subjugar os custos e despesas e de inflacionar os resultados finais, mesmo que estes não estejam explícitos. Fatores como má administração do fluxo de caixa ou até mesmo menosprezo por pequenas despesas no cálculo do resultado podem ser o diferencial entre aqueles produtores que prosperam e aqueles que têm de deixar a atividade.

Abstract Agribusiness is responsible for about ¼ of the wealth generated annually in Brazil. Within this universe, coffee culture is responsible for about 10% of the total export volume of this sector. The viability of coffee production on any scale strongly depends on the aggregation of quality in the final product, process efficiency and cost control of the activity. With the administrative modernization of the activity efficiency is gained, and with the efficiency gain opportunities for greater financial gain arise, either through cost reduction or revenue increase. Small and medium coffee farmers, in general, still lack an administrative structure that allows them to know and manage their finances properly, although there is an awareness of the need for knowledge and management of production costs. What we still see is the finances of the activity mixed with personal finances, precluding any kind of precise analysis and yet a strong tendency to subjugate costs and expenses and to inflate final results, even if they are not explicit. Factors such as poor cash flow management or even contempt for small expenses in calculating income may be the difference between those who thrive and those who have to leave the business.

Abstract Similar to natural ecosystems, entrepreneurs and other entrepreneurial actors are locally interdependent and affect the performance of each other. Mostly economically larger and more successful regions have been studied by using the framework of entrepreneurial ecosystems (EEs). The current study aims at further developing the theoretical understanding of EEs and applying the proposed EE model in the context of Estonia. In the study, a conceptual model of an EE is proposed, the uniqueness of which lies in merging three aspects into a single framework: the nine components of an EE, its value-added, and its phase of development. The model was applied for analysing by means of a qualitative methodology four sector-based subEEs in Estonia. The study showed that even in a small country like Estonia the components of the EE were partly similar, but also partly unique for the subEEs. This was not due to the location, but because of sectoral differences. The difference of the development phase seemed to be related to the knowledge base of the sector. The policy relevance of the model is that it allows looking at the elements of an EE as well as its economic value-added and development prospects. The EE approach allows addressing jointly the difficulties and challenges in the development of EEs, including the issues of digitalisation, skilled labour, and production costs, which would allow the subEEs to develop into mature and resilient networks. Not all the components of an EE have to be equally strong, but their interconnectedness determines the strength of an EE. Policy solutions need to be tailored to the needs of specific subEEs based on the knowledge base and inner dynamics of the sectors.

In order to fabricate fabrics with electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) and other function, we fabricated Crisscross-section polyester /antibacterial nylon / stainless steel wires (CSP/AN/SSW) composite yarns with stainless wires as core yarn, antibacterial nylon and crisscross-section polyester as inner and out wrapped yarns, respectively. Knitted fabrics were fabricated with the metal composite yarns with wrap amount of 8 turns/cm on a circular knitted machine. Furthermore, the EMSE of the metal composite fabrics were evaluated by changing the lamination amounts and lamination angles. The results show that when the lamination amount was four, lamination angles were 0°/45°/90°/-45°, the EMSE of the fabrics reached to-10--20 dB in the frequency range of 300 KHz to 3 GHz.

The purpose of this study is to determine the amount of income obtained by farmers who sell grain directly after harvest and farmers who delay selling grain and to find out the difference in income of farmers who sell unhulled grain directly after harvest with farmers who delay selling grain. This research was conducted using a survey method. Sampling of farmers who postpone selling grain and storing them waiting until the price of grain is high was carried out by using the census method for all populations totaling 17. Meanwhile, sampling of farmers who directly sell grain to 17 farmers from 374 populations was carried out using purposive sampling method with criteria respondents are farmers who have their own land with a land area of> 0.5 Ha. The results showed that the average production cost for the farmers to postpone selling GKP was IDR 12,911,329 / Ha / MT, the income was IDR 23,215,058 / Ha / MT, so that the income was IDR 10.303,729 / Ha / MT The production costs for direct selling GKP farmers are IDR 12,107,847 / Ha / MT, revenue is IDR 21,527,265 / Ha / MT, so you get an income of IDR 9,419,417 / Ha / MT. The average income of the respondent's delay in selling GKP was higher than that of the respondent who was selling GKP directly with the average difference in income of IDR 884,312 / Ha / MT. The R-C value of the delay in selling GKP is 1.80, while the direct selling value is 1.78. Statistically, there is a significant (significant) difference between the income of the respondent with the delay in selling GKP and the respondent from selling GKP directly. This can be seen from the t value of 3.42 and the t value of 2.036.

The combination of relatively low production costs and a versatility makepolymers one of the most used classes of engineering materials. Thecomplexity of their chemical bounds, however, make the thermomechanicalprocessing of these materials a challenge since thermal flux frommanufacturing might significantly alter their properties. In this paper wasevaluated the use of thermocouple with Arduino® compatible hardware formeasurement and control of an intermittent heating system for processing ofNylon-6 and polycarbonate thermoplastics. A 2² factorial design was createdfor using K-type thermocouple for the two polymers at two different surfacefinishes obtained by sanding with mesh #80 and #600 abrasives. The resultsindicate that the Arduino interface has satisfactory processing capacity formonitoring heating cycles and temperature logging, making it possible toknow how temperature variated and at what level it stabilized for the heatingconditions presented. The difference in material specific heat capacity andthermal conductivity will affect the observed temperature profile. Roughnessmight present a considerable effect on the material heating since it is linkedto the heat exchange area of the process.

Abstract Background In healthcare systems where hospital tariffs are based on average national length of stay (LOS), deprived patients may be a source of inefficiency for hospitals as deprivation has been shown to be associated with increased LOS. They may also negatively impact hospitals’ financial balance as few hospital payment methods include deprivation. Our objective was to study the impact of deprivation on hospital efficiency and financial balance. Methods A study was carried out using an exhaustive national hospital discharge database. All inpatient stays in mainland France between 2012 and 2014 by children over 28 days and under 18 in hospitals with a paediatric ward were included. Deprivation was estimated with an ecological deprivation index divided into national quintiles. Efficiency was assessed by variations in patients’ LOS compared to different mean national LOS (paediatric LOS, LOS of admissions for a similar condition...). Financial balance was assessed at the admission level through the ratio of production costs and revenues and at the hospital level with the difference between all revenues and production costs for said hospital. Multivariate models assessed the association between those indicators and deprivation. Results 4,124,510 inpatient stays were included. LOS was shorter than national means for less deprived patients and longer for the more deprived, and the difference was higher for diagnosis-related groups (DRGs) that included both adult and paediatric patients compared to paediatric-only DRGs. The multivariate model confirmed those significant associations. Deprivation also had a significant impact on hospitals’ financial balance, especially for hospitals with a percentage of paediatric patients in the two most deprived quintiles between 20% and 60%. Conclusions Measures to reform hospital payment methods must be encouraged to improve resource allocation efficiency and equity in access to good paediatric care. Key messages A reform of hospital funding to better account for deprivation is needed. A modulation of tariffs using an allocation key at the patient level must be considered to mitigate the effect of deprivation. DRGs specific to children should be encouraged to become the norm rather the exception to provide an adequate picture of resources used during admission and therefore an appropriate tariff.
