A method is provided and demonstrated for robust design of the batch dyeing process. This method is used to identify optimal batch dyeing process parameter settings which produce target colour with the least colour variation within and among dyed fabric pieces. The robust design problem is defined in terms of the design objectives, control factors and noise factors. Performance measures are presented to evaluate mean and dispersion characteristics of the dyeing output. Design and conduct of experiments are discussed for developing empirical models of the performance measures, and these models are developed for the study case. The robust design problem is formulated and solved as a nonlinear programming problem. Confirmation of results and iterative use of the proposed design method are discussed.

An innovative integrated framework towards effective collaboration environments in construction Erdogan, Bilge; Anumba, Chimay J.; Bouchlaghem, Dino; Nielsen, Yasemin (Inderscience Publishers, 2010-01-01) The research reported in this paper was aimed at exploring the introduction of IT enabled collaboration environments to construction organisations and managing the changes required to obtain full benefits. The paper firstly presents the results of a literature review on the factors affecting the success of collaboration environment implementations. Secondly, it summarises the results of case studies providing the perspectives of the construction organisations on the implementation of collaboration environme...
AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF POLYVINYL-CHLORIDE) EMULSION POLYMERIZATION - EFFECT OF INITIATOR AND EMULSIFIER CONCENTRATIONS ON POLYMERIZATION KINETICS AND PRODUCT PARTICLE-SIZE Karakaş, Gürkan (Wiley, 1989-01-01) Effects of concentration changes in initiator species Na2SO3, (NH4)2S2O8 and CuSO4, and emulsifier, ammonium stearate, on poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) emulsion polymerization kinetics and on product particle size were experimentally investigated. It was observed that to obtain industrially significant rates and overall conversions, not only an optimum concentration ratio of Na2SO3/(NH4)2S2O8/CuSO 4 must be used, but also the concentrations of these species must be above certain limits. Increasing the concentr...
Analysis of single Gaussian approximation of Gaussian mixtures in Bayesian filtering applied to mixed multiple-model estimation Orguner, Umut (Informa UK Limited, 2007-01-01) This paper examines the effect of the moment-matched single Gaussian approximation, which is made in various multiple-model filtering applications to approximate a Gaussian mixture, on the Bayesian filter performance. The estimation error caused by the approximation is analysed for both the prediction and the measurement updates of a Bayesian filter. An approximate formula is found for the covariance of the error caused by the approximation for a general Gaussian mixture with arbitrary components. The calcu...
A Modeling Study on the Layout Impact of with-in-die Thickness Range for STI CMP Kıncal, Serkan; BAŞIM DOĞAN, GÜL BAHAR (2012-10-01) Chemical Mechanical Planarization process has a proven track record as an effective method for planarizing the wafer surface at multiple points of the semiconductor manufacturing flow. One of the most challenging aspects of the CMP process, particularly in applications like Shallow Trench Isolation (STI), is the difference in relative removal rates of the different materials that are being polished. A certain amount of over-polish is required to clear oxide on top of the nitride, however, this over-polish m...
Predicting drying behavior of spaghetti in a continuous industrial dryer with the models determined in a lab scale batch system Kucuk, R; Ozilgen, M (Wiley, 1997-08-01) In the first stage of this study experimental data were obtained by using a lab scale batch type dryer, operating under various constant temperature/constant relative humidity combinations; then a mathematical model was determined for the effective diffusivity of moisture in spaghetti. In the second stage of the study the model obtained in the lab scale batch type dryer was used to calculate the moisture content of the spaghetti leaving continuous industrial scale dryer, and its success was tested by compar...
