The fund's biggest position, at 6.7percentt of assets, is JDS Uniphase, of San Jose, Calif., which makes fiber optic transmission components.
The company, which is best known for products like Purolator air filters and shock absorbers, also makes transmission components and other parts for heavy-duty trucks.
Typical uses are for cylinder blocks, crankshafts, axles, brake drums, and transmission components, as well as other industrial applications such as lathe beds and hydraulic lifting equipment.
The segment's major products are transmission components and systems, and all-wheel drive torque management systems.
The Automotive segment manufactures and sells bearings for car and automotive component manufacturers, steering columns, and automatic transmission components.
Key transmission components include overhead lines, cables, transformers, capacitors, and reactors.
Thus, the transmission components exert a comparatively large effect on SCE.
Table 5 shows the TC indices for the eight congested transmission components and system.
Chong Wang presents a Markov-based deterioration model for transmission components [12].
Eight transmission components are congested because of the random failure of components.
Table 2 shows the TC indices for these transmission components and system.
