Abstract:
Waste Disposal Incorporated (WDI) became a major player in both the domestic and international trash collection industries during the late 1990s by aggressively acquiring a large number of local haulers. The company also diversified into recycling, water treatment, energy, power, and lawn care. This rapid expansion initially resulted in substantial profits and a skyrocketing stock price for WDI. The financial market's desire for continued growth put intense pressure on the company to meet higher profit expectations. Increased government regulation of the waste industry and growing competition from smaller garbage haulers hindered WDI's ability to meet those expectations. When extensive cost-cutting measures failed to achieve their desired results, WDI's management turned to other strategies to keep the company at the top of the industry. In this case, you will follow Jane Sweeny, an audit manager employed by Alfred Peterson LLP, as she completes her duties as manager of the WDI 1999 year-end audit. Included in these duties is a review of the financial records, management's accounting practices, and other relevant details of WDI's audit. The review raises some doubts about the reasonableness of WDI's financial statements in Jane's mind. Jane also discusses her concerns with Peterson's engagement partner and the WDI controller.

Abstract:
The wastewater of the many industries that use divalent cobalt (Co2+)-containing compounds has elevated levels of this metal. Thus, novel technology is needed to efficiently remove Co2+ ions from aqueous solutions. Biosorption is a low-cost technique capable of removing heavy metals from contaminated water. This study aims to evaluate the performance of KH2PO4-pretreated Lemna gibba (PLEM) as a biosorbent of Co2+ in aqueous solutions tested under different conditions of pH, particle size, and initial Co2+ concentration. Kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamic studies were conducted. The capacity of biosorption increased with a greater initial Co2+ concentration and was optimal at pH 7.0 and with small-sized biosorbent particles (0.3–0.8 mm). The pseudo-second-order sorption model best describes the experimental data on Co2+ biosorption kinetics. The Sips and Redlich-Peterson isotherm models best predict the biosorption capacity at equilibrium. According to the thermodynamic study, biosorption of Co2+ was endothermic and spontaneous. The effect of pH on the biosorption/desorption of Co2+ suggests that electrostatic attraction is the main biosorption mechanism. SEM-EDX verified the presence of Co2+ on the surface of the pretreated-saturated biosorbent and the absence of the metal after desorption.

Abstract:
Heat transfer is a desirable phenomenon in many industries such as in refrigeration, transportation, power generation, cell preservation, incubator, metallurgy and material processing, health services, etc. Different types of fluids like water, oil, ethylene glycol etc are being used as a heat transfer medium. Water is a commonly used as working fluid for transfer of heat. Nanofluids are developed by adding nano sized particle(s) in existing fluid to improve the heat transfer rate. Thermal conductivity of the nanofluid is an important parameter in estimation of heat transfer rate. Different types of mathematical models were developed by various investigators to predict the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids. In this review paper,the theoretical and mathematical model(s) have been compared to predict the thermal conductivity of nanofluids. The experimental data have been collected from literature and compared with Maxwell model, Hamilton and crosser(H-C) model, Maxwell-Garnetts(MG) model, Pak cho model, Timofeeva et al. model, Li and Peterson model, Bhattacharya et al. model respectively in detail. It has been observed that the prediction wih the help of the mathematical models is good when the value of volume fraction was less than 0.01.

Abstract:
Abstract Many researchers have explored the relationship between market orientation and firm performance in manufacturing and services industries but such studies in agri-food SMEs are scarce. Previous research conducted has conceptually and empirically supported the notion that market orientation independently or collectively have positive correlations with the business performance of organization (such as Narver and Slater, 1990; Jaworski and Kohli, 1993; Lee and Peterson, 2000). The aim of this paper is to examine the marketing practices and the marketing orientation-business performance relationship among SMEs in agri-food sector in Malaysia. This study also investigated the role of the external environment in the market orientation-performance linkage. From an analysis of a survey data of 102 agri- food organizations, three dimensions namely customer-competitor orientation, inter-functional coordination and information dissemination extracted from factor analysis result of market orientation. The study revealed that customer-competitor orientation and information dissemination were positively related to business performance. In terms of the role of external environment, two dimensions produced by factor analysis, market-technology turbulence and competitive intensity did not moderate the relationship between market orientation and business performance. Findings are discussed and implications are highlighted. Keywords: Market Orientation, External Environment, Business Performance

Abstract:
United States citizen scientist, researcher, and anti-geoengineering activist, Rosalind Peterson of Mendocino, California, proved both pioneer and prophet. She helped catalyze a global grassroots anti-geoengineering movement through her decades-long work crusading for clearer skies, cleaner water, healthier trees and plants, and a more resilient planet free of geoengineering fallout. Peterson combined scientific data collection and research, publishing, public speaking, and political advocacy to educate the world about the many negative environmental consequences of clandestine geoengineering. Founder of the California Skywatch in 2002 and the Agricultural Defense Coalition in 2006, Peterson built an extensive collection of multimedia materials over three decades, now being archived and curated through Our Geoengineering Age for public use by the global scientific community. As an initial “sort” of her extensive archival collection reveals, Peterson proved a tenacious and courageous citizen scientist who wore many hats: environmentalist, photographer, field scientist/researcher, writer, speaker, and activist/publicist. Peterson’s decades-long effort to uncover the myriad toxic environmental impacts of clandestine geoengineering also provides a compelling, scientifically researched alternative to the widely accepted theory advanced by the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that global warming is primarily caused by anthropogenically released carbon dioxide.

Abstract:
It is critical for manufacturing sectors to improve maximum performance to foster a competitive advantage. This article aims to analyze how the manufacturing industry can promote its performance to achieve sustainable development. We embark performance evaluation on Taiwanese manufacturing sectors which have profound implications in the global manufacturing supply chain. This study collected public information and reliable data from the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) covering 12 Taiwanese manufacturing industries. Performance evaluation indicators consist of four inputs chosen from a set of six items, whereas one output is from a set of three items. The analysis from Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is conducted including CCR (Charnes, Cooper, & Rhodes) efficiency, BCC (Banker et al.) efficiency, A&P(Andersen and Petersen) efficiency, cross-efficiency and D&G(Doyle and Green) efficiency plus the VIKOR prioritization method to evaluate the 12 manufacturing industries in Taiwan. The comprehensive analysis and comparison results of this study show the sophisticated outcomes through the analysis of DEA and VIKOR. In another objective evaluation, the efficiency of DEA proves a certain correlation between the model and the measurement of the VIKOR method. The results indicate that Taiwan’s manufacturing industry is moving towards design innovation thinking towards the high value of its own brand, whereas the industries in China and South East Asia appear different. The results can provide the best practice to allow the international manufacturing industry to enjoy a resurgence after falling output and diminishing labor force.

Abstract:
Equilibrium studies were carried out for the adsorption of phosphate onto newly discharged coal gangue and spontaneous combustion coal gangue, which are industrial solid residues. The experimental data were fitted to the two-parameter equations of Freundlich, Langmuir, Temkin, and Dubinin-Radushkevich and the three-parameter equations of the Redlich-Peterson, Sips and Toth isotherms by non-linear method. All three-parameter isotherm equations have a higher correlation coefficient than the two-parameter isotherm equations. For new discharged coal gangue, the maximum phosphate adsorption capacity is over 2.504 mg/g (as P), and the best two-parameter isotherm is Freundlich, which indicated multilayer adsorption takes place on the surface. For spontaneous combustion coal gangue, the maximum phosphate adsorption capacity is 7.079 mg/g (as P), two times larger than new discharged coal gangue, and the best two-parameter isotherm is Langmuir, suggesting that the adsorption process occurs on a homogenous surface by monolayer adsorption. The three-parameter isotherm model of Redlich-Peterson shows the best fitting in both cases, but parameter g is 0.6138 in new discharged coal gangue (the parameter g is nearly 1, which means that the equilibrium isotherm behaves as the Langmuir, not as the Freundlich isotherm), g approaches to unity in spontaneous combustion coal gangue, suggesting that the two kinds of coal gangues have different adsorption properties.

Abstract:
Abstract Coal is a porous medium and natural absorbent. It can be used for its original purpose after adsorbing organic compounds, its value does not reduce and the pollutants are recycled, and then through systemic circulation of coking wastewater zero emissions can be achieved. Thus, a novel method of industrial organic wastewater treatment using adsorption on coal is introduced. Coking coal was used as an adsorbent in batch adsorption experiments. The quinoline, indole, pyridine and phenol removal efficiencies of coal adsorption were investigated. In addition, several operating parameters which impact removal efficiency such as coking coal consumption, oscillation contact time, initial concentration and pH value were also investigated. The coking coal exhibited properties well-suited for organics' adsorption. The experimental data were fitted to Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms as well as Temkin and Redlich–Peterson (R-P) models. The Freundlich isotherm model provided reasonable models of the adsorption process. Furthermore, the purification mechanism of organic compounds' adsorption on coking coal was analysed.

Peterson, Rebecca Hilary. "Friction Bit Joining of Dissimilar Combinations of DP 980 Steel and AA 7075." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2015. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/6030.

Full text
Abstract:
Friction Bit Joining (FBJ) is a new technology that allows lightweight metals to be joined to advanced high-strength steels (AHSS). Joining of dissimilar metals is especially beneficial to the automotive industry because of the desire to use materials such as aluminum and AHSS in order to reduce weight and increase fuel efficiency. In this study, FBJ was used to join 7075 aluminum and DP980 ultra-high-strength steel. FBJ is a two-stage process using a consumable bit. In the first stage, the bit cuts through the top material (aluminum), and in the second stage the bit is friction welded to the base material (steel). The purpose of the research was to examine the impact a solid head bit design would have on joint strength, manufacturability, and ease of automation. The solid head design was driven externally. This design was compared to a previous internally driven head design. Joint strength was assessed according to an automotive standard established by Honda. Joints were mechanically tested in lap-shear tension, cross-tension, and peel configurations. Joints were also fatigue tested, cycling between loads of 100 N and 750 N. The failure modes that joints could experience during testing include: head, nugget, material, or interfacial failure. All tested specimens in this research experienced interfacial failure. Welds were also created and examined under a microscope in order to validate a simulation model of the FBJ process. The simulation model predicted a similar weld shape and bond length with 5 percent accuracy. Joints made with external bits demonstrated comparable joint strength to internal bits in lap-shear tension and cross-tension testing. Only external bits were tested after lap-shear tension, because it was determined that external bits would perform comparably to internal bits. Joints made with external bits also exceeded the standard for failure during fatigue testing. Peel tested specimens did not meet the required strength for the automotive standard. Examining specimens under a microscope revealed micro-cracks in the weld. These defects have been shown to decrease joint strength. Joint strength, especially during peel testing, could be increased by reducing the presence of micro-cracks. The external bit design is an improvement from the internal bits for manufacturability and ability to be automated, because of the less-expensive processes used to form the bit heads and the design that lends to ease of alignment.

Abstract:
This chapter looks at Irish responses to Peterloo. It looks at the relations between radical reformers and the movement for Catholic Emancipation. The kind of political repression that was enacted in Manchester in August of that year was more common in Ireland, and reformers made common cause with Irish Catholics, many of whom were beginning to migrate to the industrial towns of Northern England. Ireland gave English reformers a cautionary example of tyrannical government, while Irish writers and politicians saw in Peterloo an illustration of the English establishment's true coercive colours. There was however a deeper sense in which Peterloo and the Irish Question were imbricated in early nineteenth-century culture. The role of public speaking, the control of potentially subversive speech, and the challenge of radical politics to traditional standards of rhetoric and oratory were all brought into focus in the years leading to the massacre.

Gojko Lalic of the University of Washington developed (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 6473) conditions for the preparation of the fluoride 2 by SN2 displacement of the triflate 1. Ross M. Denton of the University of Nottingham showed (Tetrahedron Lett. 2014, 55, 799) that a polymer-bound phosphine oxide activated with oxalyl bromide would convert an alcohol 3 to the bromide 4. The polymer could be filtered off and reactivated directly. Jonas C. Peters and Gregory C. Fu of Caltech devised (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 2162) a photochemically-activated Cu catalyst that mediated the displacement of the bromide 5 by the amide 6 to give 7. Mark L. Trudell of the University of New Orleans used (Synthesis 2014, 46, 230) an Ir catalyst to couple the amide 9 with the alcohol 8, leading to 10. Tohru Fukuyama of Nagoya University converted (Org.

Brindaban C. Ranu of the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science developed (Org.

Inter alia, this would be a convenient way to hydrolyze an alkenyl halide to the aldehyde. Vinyl ethers can also be oxidized directly to the ester, and to the unsaturated aldehyde. Pallavi Sharma and John E. Moses of the University of Lincoln observed (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 2158) that the cyanation of the alkenyl halide 15 delivered 16, with retention of the geometry of the alkene. Jitendra K.

Abstract:
LES and RANS simulations of a Siemens scaled combustor are compared against comprehensive experimental data. The steady RANS simulation modeled one quarter of the geometry with 8M polyhedral cells using the SST-k-ω model. Unsteady LES simulations were performed on the quarter geometry (90°, 8M cells) as well as the full geometry (360°, 32M cells) using the WALE sub-grid model and dynamic evaluation of model coefficients. Aside from the turbulence model, all other models are identical for the RANS and LES. Combustion was modeled with the Flamelet Generated Manifold (FGM) model, which represents the thermo-chemistry by mixture fraction and reaction progress. RANS simulations are performed using Zimont and Peters turbulent flame speed (TFS) expressions with default model constants, as well as the kinetic rate from the FGM. The flame speed stalls near the wall with the TFS models, predicting a flame brush that extends to the combustor outlet, which is inconsistent with measurements. The FGM kinetic source model shows improved flame position predictions. The LES predictions of mean and rms axial velocity, mixture fraction and temperature do not show improvement over the RANS. All three simulations over-predict the turbulent mixing in the inner recirculation zone, causing flatter profiles than measurements. This over-mixing is exacerbated in the 900 case. The experiments show evidence of heat loss and the adiabatic simulations presented here might be improved by including wall heat-loss and radiation effects.

Abstract:
Lifted diffusion flames are an interesting topic due to many reasons. Mainly, lifting the reaction zone provides explicit time for mixing and avoids, therefore, hot spots at near stoichiometric conditions. Hence, they promise low emissions and make them auspicious for industrial application. In comparison to lean premixed flames, which are promising in terms of emissions as well, they distinguish themselves in the nonexistence of the risk of flashback by concurrently nearly premixed flame conditions. From exploratory considerations they are an excellent case for the investigation of flame stability. However, especially this kind of flame is challenging for the reaction model due to its high turbulence and nearly premixed burning state. CFD is a powerful tool to get a clear insight in complex mechanisms, as it delivers detailed information of the flow field. Although the contribution of highly sophisticated models like LES is steadily growing in current research, fast models as RANS are most important. Solely they provide the feasibility of extensive parametric studies or the application in industrial design processes. Therefore, appropriate reaction models are needed. The applicability of two different reaction models for non-premixed flames to predict structure and stability of such flames has been investigated in this work. A stable confined diffusion flame produced by a double swirler airblast nozzle has been chosen as test case. Leaving the secondary air stream non-swirled creates a flame which stabilizes in a lifted state. The turbulent flamelet model as proposed by Peters in the early 90th basically models the impact of the turbulent strain rate on the diffusion flame. The local state of mixing is characterized by the mixture fraction, whereas the interaction of flame and turbulence is described by the mean scalar dissipation rate. The fact that the strain rate is the only non-equilibrium parameter describing the state of the reaction permits the use of detailed chemical mechanisms. The presumed jpdf model based on a 2-domain-1-step kinetic scheme has its focus on the interaction of mixing and reaction progress and uses a presumed shape for the joint probability density function. The reaction is characterized by a single variable describing the mixing state and one single additional variable, describing the state of reaction progress. In this paper assets and drawbacks of both models and their applicability to lifted flames have been discussed in detail. Furthermore, conclusions on the stability mechanism of a lifted swirl flame are taken.
