Abstract:
Epoxy resins are used in a number of different industries and therefore have application-specific material requirements, from satellites that require materials that operate in space, to paints and coatings that require high scratch resistance and mechanical durability, to medical devices, designed to be in continuous contact with biological fluids. Commercial epoxy products come with manufacturer’s information explaining the epoxy properties and recommended preparation processing conditions, which may include epoxy resin to curing agent mix ratio (Part A : Part B), cure time, and cure temperat

Abstract:
Performance measurement of Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) is of increasing importance for aid agencies, policy-makers and donors. A widely used benchmark for measuring the efficiency of NPOs is the overhead cost ratio, consisting of the total money spent on administration and fundraising relative to the budget. Donors generally favor a lower overhead cost ratio as it ensures that more Money directly reaches beneficiaries. Unlike fundraising expenses, administrative costs do not contribute to advertising the actions of an NPO even though they account for a significant proportion of

In both the structural and civil disciplines, engineers are increasingly faced with growing loading demands to achieve taller, wider and longer designs. Unfortunately, as the demand on structural members has increased over the past few decades, the member supply capacity as determined by the design codes has remained somewhat constant. With the current design Standards internationally being taken to their limitations to achieve higher capacities, a glass ceiling has developed which is preventing the design of more impressive structures.

This dissertation explores a special class of the performance measurement problem where the overall performance is defined as the sum or arithmetic mean of two or more ratios (fractions). The problem is investigated with its links to the sum of linear ratios (SLR) problem in optimization theory, and a solution procedure based on linear goal programming (GP) is developed. The developed GP model is applied in three main areas of (i) the joint measurement of efficiency and effectiveness, (ii) the joint measurement of the technical efficiency and ecological efficiency, and (iii) the joint measurem

Abstract:
The disparity in remuneration between company CEOs and other employees is a topical and highly controversial issue globally. Theoretically, there are two explanations for this pay disparity - tournament theory and behavioural theory. Tournament theory says that employees are more motivated to compete with a larger pay gap, while the behavioural theories say that employees feel inadequate and thus demotivated in the presence of a larger pay gap, resulting in poorer performance. In response to growing concerns about the pay gap, new legislation in the USA has required companies to disclose their
