The mismatch in thermal expansion and Young's moduli of matrix metal and diamond reinforcement is responsible for high micro stresses under operational conditions of thermal cycling.
This work seeks to facilitate decision making by incorporating systems thinking into sustainable manufacturing assessment and to develop an understanding of the complex interplay of factors from the operational (micro) scale through the enterprise (macro) scale.
The aim is to derive a method to analyze and to optimize the bevel gear tooth flank micro geometry for operational conditions taking the occurring tolerances into account and derive a robust design.
In applications such as micro-milling the operational speed of the spindle can very well deviate from the desired set point.
It is crucial to ensure the micro-grid's operational stability and service reliability when a fault occurs in the main network.
The proposed scheme is substantiated through a knowledge based approach and relies on Fuzzy Multicriteria Analysis (FMCA), for selecting the best biosensor design that suits both, the target analyte and the operational micro-environment.
In turn, individualized and focused dialogue is documented to convince immunization sceptics while illustrating that good and adaptive operational micro-plans are an essential element to attainment of high vaccination coverage.
If there are high cost dispatchable sources in the MG, such as diesel generators or micro-turbines (MTs), the operational economic efficiency becomes more important and the objective is to minimize total cost or maximize the generation profit.
The Vacutug is "a service affordable by the urban poor, with the capital cost affordable by entrepreneurs who can potentially develop a micro-enterprise, recovering the operational costs from the revenue generated," according to TVE. "It is capable of accessing some of the most densely populated urban areas, with narrow and bumpy lanes, where conventional systems are unable to penetrate.
A limitation of these prior analyses is that they identify immediate operational constraints (micro-level factors) rather than getting to the root cause of the factors that influenced adoption of best-practices.
The model proposed a sustainability assessment tool for the operational phase of micro hydropower plants, serving as a base for comparison among different projects.
