Sentence examples for material flow paths from inspiring English sources

The shortest paths along the perimeter of the departments are used to calculate the distance of the material flow paths from output to input points.

Given fixed facility layout and predetermined material flow paths, this study determines the minimum number of transporters required to transfer material within a given manufacturing facility with minimal handling effort.

To achieve high productivity in a flexible manufacturing system (FMS), an efficient layout arrangement and material flow path design are important due to the large percentage of product cost that is related to material handling.

The microstructure evolution during the stirring and normal cooling was investigated along the material flow path and in the annealed "frozen" weld zone by high-resolution electron-backscatter-diffraction technique.

The technique is to appropriately assign each piece of equipment (i.e., process-units and storage-vessels) into groups and then to sequence these groups according to the material-flow-path of the production network following the engineering structure of the problem.

The setups differed in design (large versus small) including electrode material and flow path and in carbon source provided at the cathode (bicarbonate or acetate).

Since most near-surface geologic materials have preferential flow paths, we suggest that quantitative hydrograph separation using mass balance techniques is not possible in most situations.

Naturally occurring fractures in the fine-grained materials can create preferential flow paths, which can allow water to infiltrate quickly, resulting in recharge to underlying aquifers but also allowing contaminants to pass through to aquifers, potentially threatening ground water drinking water sources.

These short-range variations in material properties imply that preferential flow paths and diffusion between regions of higher and lower hydraulic conductivity may be important for treatment efficiency.

A mathematical model for tandem loop AGV path optimization is established with the goal to minimize material flow between different loops of AGV path.

Our extension of Helgason et al.'s [29] technique provides a modulus distribution throughout the model based on heat flow paths through the material.
