Using cutting speed and the roughness as index, the five factors as pulse duration, peak current, offset, ratio of pulse interval to pulse duration and worktable feed were chosen in dry finishing. Based on the single factor experiment, the central composite design (CCD) method is used to study the effects of the five factors and their interactions on cutting speed and the surface roughness and develop empirical models for cutting speed and roughness Ra. Significant order influencing cutting speed and roughness are found. The results of the verification test show that Ra regression model and cutting speed regression model have high reliability, and can achieve significant prediction effect.

Comparing with conventional WEDM in emulsion, dry finishing of high-speed WEDM (HS-WEDM) has advantages such as higher material removal rate, better surface roughness and straightness. Authors have presented a new procedure as gas-liquid combined multiple cut, in which roughing is processed in dielectric liquid, and semi-finishing is in liquid or gas, while finishing is in gas. For better understanding the effect of machining parameters on surface roughness and cutting speed in dry finishing, a L25(56) Design was implemented. The analysis of variance shows that the effect of pulse duration on surface roughness is of high significance, and peak current is of significance respectively, and the effect of no load worktable feed on cutting speed is high significant.

This paper aims to analysis the effect of coolant parameters on surface roughness in internal cylindrical grinding of annealed 9CrSi steel. The concentration and flow rate of the coolant are investigated in thirteen experiments by central composite design and response surface method. The effect of each parameter and their interaction on the surface roughness are analyzed by their regression model. From that model, optimal parameters are determined to obtain the minimum surface roughness. The measured roughness matches with the predicted roughness from the regression model. This proposed is proven and it can be further applied for optimizing other machining processes.

In order to find the optimal combination of the picking unit parameters of the brush-rolling cotton harvester, the parameters optimization experiment were carried out. Taking the rotary speed of brush roller, the working velocity, and the number of brush plates as the experimental factors, the collect rate and the loss rate of struck cotton as the performance evaluation indexes, the quadratic regression orthogonal rotational combing design experiment was carried out. The Central Composite Design response surface method was used to establish the regression model of experimental factors and evaluation indexes, and analyze the influence of each factor on evaluation indexes. Using multi-objective optimization, the optimal parameter combination is as follows: the rotary speed of the brush roller is 350 r/min, the working velocity is 0.5 m/s, the number of brush plates is 6 rows. After the optimization test, the collect rate is 95.58%, and the loss rate of struck cotton is 1.22%. The field verification test shows that the collect rate of 4MSG-3 brush-rolling cotton harvester is 92.86%, and the loss rate of struck cotton is 1.26%. The relative error between verification test results and parameter optimization value is less than 5%, which verifies the reliability of the regression model. This study provides a theoretical basis for optimizing and improving the picking unit’s parameters of the brush-rolling cotton harvester.

Comparing with conventional WEDM in emulsion, dry finishing of high-speed WEDM (HS-WEDM) has advantages such as higher material removal rate, better surface roughness and straightness. Authors have presented a new procedure as gas-liquid combined multiple cut, in which roughing is processed in dielectric liquid, and semi-finishing is in liquid or gas, while finishing is in gas. For better understanding the effect of machining parameters on surface roughness(Ra) and cutting speed (Vw) in dry finishing, a L25(56) Design test was implemented. The analysis of variance shows that offset and wire length are not significant on Ra and Vw. In this paper, the other four significant parameters, such as pulse duration, pulse interval ratio, peak current and no load worktable feed, were selected as factors in Uniform Design test. The final regression equations for Ra and Vw in terms of the actual parameter values were calculated out with MATLAB. Regression statistics of values R2 imply the two regression equtions fit well with test data and Model F-Values imply the two models are significant. Values t and α for regression equation coefficient tests of Ra and Vw show the major impacting items and interactions between them.

Process optimization plays a very important role in the process industries as it helps to miximise desire output by minimizing the cost of process variables. The aim of this work is to carry out response surface central composite design optimization of Soluos dumpsite leachate treatment using agricultural biowaste. Leachate collected from Soluos dumpsite in Lagos was treated using adsorbent prepared from Muas sapientum peels by studying the effects of adsorbent dosage and contact time on the percentage removal of total dissolved solids (TDS) with the aid of design expert software version 10.0.3. The developed second order regression model was adopted in comparison with the linear and two factor interaction ( ) model based on its coefficient of determination (R2) value and its adequacy by analysis of variance (ANOVA). 80.34 percentage removal of TDS was achieved under experimental process at contact time of 120 mins and dosage of 1 g/100mL while 81.134 percentage removal of TDS was obtained under simulation process at contact time of 63.469 mins and dosage of 0.994 g/100 mL. the values obtained under simulation condition were adopted as the optimum conditions. The developed second order regression model predicted the experimental data up to 98.10 percent confidence level hence it is a true representation of the treatment process and can be used to navigate the design space and optimization process of treatment of Soluos dumpsite leachate.

Aim: The aim of this study was to develop effective topical antifungal formulation containing sertaconazole nitrate. Background: Sertaconazole nitrate, topical antifungal was incorporated in solid-liquid lipid nanostructures and gelled further for topical application. Objective: The objective of this investigation was to develop a topical formulation containing sertaconazole nitrate which was incorporated in the solid state of matrix to prolong the release in deep skin infection and hence reduce the application frequency. Methods: The nanostructured lipid carriers of sertaconazole nitrate were developed by high speed homogenization followed by ultrasonication using Estosoft-GTS® (glyceryl tristearate) as a solid lipid, oleic acid as liquid lipid and Tween 80 as an emulsifier. Central composite design was used to optimize total lipid concentration and fraction of liquid lipid in the total lipid and its effect on entrapment efficiency and drug release was determined. Results: The carrier particles had an average size of 366.3 nm; entrapment efficiency in between 50.66% to 87.36%; cumulative drug release up to 92.90% and zeta potential of 7.43 mV. Characterization by FTIR indicated no negative interaction between drug and excipients, XRD showed disappearance of crystalline peaks of the encapsulated drug while DSC revealed complete solubilization of the drug. About 99.6% of drug was estimated by HPLC method. The drug release from gel and cream was 25.04% and 72.97% respectively. The lipid and gel excipients did not interfere with antifungal activity of the drug. Conclusion: The developed nanocarriers loaded gel were stable. It prolonged the drug release (for 24 hours) than marketed cream. It could be a promising concept for topical delivery of antifungal and anti-inflammatory materials.

Small, hydrokinetic systems generating between 0.5 and 10 kW of power are potentially capable of portable power generation. A propeller turbine 18 inches in diameter is paired with a flanged diffuser and numerically simulated as a potential portable hydrokinetic system. The diffuser augmented hydrokinetic turbine (DAHkT) is investigated with a response surface optimization method, where geometric parameters of the system are systematically varied to determine their effects on the system power generation and thrust. The simulations are determined using a central composite design of experiments to minimize the number of simulations required to fit a second-order regression to the results. Potential optimum designs are determined from the regression model, further verified with simulations, and characterized for their entire operating range.
