Two Venetian types of swords coming from the “Luigi Marzoli” Arms Museum in Brescia were characterized in this study, to understand their manufacturing process and to gather information about their provenance. Both the blades and the hilts components are analyzed using a multi-methodological approach, to describe possible differences in the metallurgical features that involved classical metallographic and spectroscopic techniques. Microstructural results indicate a complex process for the manufacturing of the blades, by hot-forging, confirmed by a sequence of different microstructures even on the same sample. Furthermore, an interesting and unusual manufacturing technique is used on one of the pommels, which consists of two hemispheres connected by copper joints. Hypothesis about the ironmaking and the provenience of raw materials are obtained by the features and composition of the inclusions. It is suggested that there is the use of both a direct and an indirect process on the swords. It is likely that the minerals used to obtain iron and copper of the swords come from the mines of the Brescia and Bergamo territories. All the hypotheses are consistent with the historical documents of the time that also give information on the diffusion of such swords in the Brescia area.

In the manufacturing process Bus and Mini Bus, a lot of the raw materials required. Raw materials are stored at many warehouses (especially on Body PT. XYZ Malang). Materials / goods are highly vulnerable to lost or stolen. The most influential factor in it is the counting system inventory / materials and administration. These changes will have an impact on the process of goods more accurate calculation based on the demand of production. Losses will have a greater likelihood of being used if the system can not address the calculation of the goods/raw materials better.And administration system that can cope with the calculation of the goods/raw materials are better here is a system that can calculate expenditures for production based on the incoming bill alone, and can calculate the receipt of goods in accordance with the letter received by the supplier. The system can also provide reports based on existing transactions during a certain period.With the inventory system and the administration is then the difference between the goods that previously occurred can be minimized and raw material inventory accounting system can work better.

Historical documents have shown their potential to infer the origin and evolution of the glacier existing in the Veleta cirque, in the massif of Sierra Nevada (Spain). This information encompasses written sources spanning from the 17th to the mid-20th centuries, and provides valuable knowledge about the Little Ice Age. These new data complement the already existing geomorphological knowledge about the natural system and landscape evolution in Sierra Nevada, particularly with regards to glacial geomorphic events in the summit areas. From a transdisciplinary methodological approach, the results show that the Veleta glacier was a singular geomorphic event that owed its existence to the particular environmental conditions of the high lands of Sierra Nevada, besides the favourable morpho-topographical setting, altitude, aspect as well as microclimate conditions prevailing in this area.

The unique way of timekeeping strategy, involving pengkul (a traditional bamboo trumpet) as a communication or signalling device within the Lom institution demonstrates the early Kuki people’s technological adaptability and cognitive development. Pengkul has been an important musical instrument of the early Kuki people since time immemorial. It plays a significant role in traditional Kuki society as a means of public communication and conveyor of time and event rather than a mere instrument of merriments. Firstly, the article focuses on the procurement of raw materials, manufacturing process, uses, maintenance, repairing, and discard pattern of the pengkul. Secondly, the article focuses on the role of pengkul as a communication or signalling device within the organization of the village workforce called “ Lompi.” Wherein, pengkul remains as a guiding element of the socioeconomic survival strategy adopted by the traditional Kukis. Thirdly, the article further analyzes the myths and traditional beliefs associated with pengkul to delineate the ideational aspect of pengkul within their concept of the supernatural realm.

Flow Of Information

Every finished product has gone through a series of transformations. The process begins when manufacturers purchase the raw materials that will be transformed into the components of the product. The parts are then supplied to a manufacturer, who assembles them into the finished product and ships the completed item to the consumer. The transformation process includes numerous activities (Levary, 2000). Among them are • Designing the product • Designing the manufacturing process • Determining which component parts should be produced in house and which should be purchased from suppliers • Forecasting customer demand • Contracting with external suppliers for raw materials or component parts • Purchasing raw materials or component parts from suppliers • Establishing distribution channels for raw materials and component parts from suppliers to manufacturer • Establishing of distribution channels to the suppliers of raw materials and component parts • Establishing distribution channels from the manufacturer to the wholesalers and from wholesalers to the final customers • Manufacturing the component parts • Transporting the component parts to the manufacturer of the final product • Manufacturing and assembling the final product • Transporting the final product to the wholesalers, retailers, and final customer Each individual activity generates various data items that must be stored, analyzed, protected, and transmitted to various units along a supply chain. A supply chain can be defined as a series of activities that are involved in the transformation of raw materials into a final product, which a customer then purchases (Levary, 2000). The flow of materials, component parts, and products is moving downstream (i.e., from the initial supply sources to the end customers). The flow of information regarding the demand for the product and orders to suppliers is moving upstream, while the flow of information regarding product availability, shipment schedules, and invoices is moving downstream. For each organization in the supply chain, its customer is the subsequent organization in the supply chain, and its subcontractor is the prior organization in the chain.

To introduce both the subject of the book and its methodological approach, the Introduction takes up the case study of the date of Shakespeare’s baptism: 26 April 1564. Those who want to believe that the national poet was born on the national feast day (23 April, or St George’s Day), have compiled ‘evidence’ to prove it, but under close analysis the evidence disintegrates. We know his day of baptism but cannot know his birthday. Much of Shakespeare’s biography has been built out of similar ‘evidence clusters’. The book interrogates many of these old clusters and also assembles new ones. This involves close reading familiar historical documents contextually, referring to other examples from the same record classes to show how their conventions and textual practices shape their meaning. A further strategy is to include mini-biographies for some of Shakespeare’s cognates in Stratford-upon-Avon, the stories of parallel lives through which we can learn more about his own. The chapter also introduces the members of Shakespeare’s natal family.

Of Greece

Waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is a constantly increasing component of the total volume of municipal solid waste. E-waste streams are expected to continue escalating in the near future. The underlining paradox lies in the fact that end-of-life electrical and electronic equipment constitute a critical waste stream owing to the contained hazardous and toxic elements, but they also present an important source of valuable raw materials. Therefore, identification of alternative scenarios for integrated WEEE management is imperative. To that end, this research develops a methodological approach that focuses on determining the optimal WEEE management scheme, among available alternatives, applicable to the specific case of Greece. In particular, a binary linear programming model is formulated that maximizes the performance of 9 alternative WEEE management scenarios. The mathematical model considers 12 performance assessment criteria identified across financial, technical, social, and environmental dimensions. Priority levels are assigned to each criterion based on the input of 19 involved experts. A range of “what-if” analyses indicate that mechanical recycling of WEEE, in tandem with exporting of residues, is the most efficient e-waste management strategy in the case of Greece. The research findings indicate that the joint cooperation of all stakeholders, together with political will and effectiveness, is required for the integrated WEEE management at a national level.

The quality standard SR EN 1090:2012 requirements enforce a maximum consistency both on the metallic construction manufacturing process and during all the additional stages till the construction site becomes a final product ready to be used. Any lack of attention during this complex manufacturing process might drive to different classes of damage consequences due to minor or major nonconformities. Therefore, among other important procedures, I refer here to the importance of marking both the raw materials (as part of the final product) and leftovers (as part of future work) resulted from the cutting process. I propose in this paper a specific database and a simple marking procedure based on QR codes. The database consists of detailed descriptions of all kind of metallic materials with different shape, structure and quality as well as all important information extracted from the quality certificate 3.1. that accompanies the goods once they arrive into the manufacturer’s storage. Since the standard underlines the necessity to identify any material during work processing, the system allows conversion of large text with important data into a QR code that can be scanned and therefore the material quickly identified into the manufacturer’s workshop.
